Quick Quotes

Q. Seemed like you played pretty well after the delay. How did you spend that time and what was your focus going back out there?

MIKE WEIR: Spent the time watching "Talledaga Nights" in the fitness trailer with some of the guys. Did a little stretching, kind of warmed back up again because I had a feeling that it was going to be in that 4:30, 5:00 window. And I made a really nice putt coming out of the break. It was left of the green on 10 and didn't hit a very good chip and made a nice putt there for par and that really set the rest of the round. Kind of burned a bunch of edges and hit one really close shot on I guess 13, I hit it to tap-in range. Then the par-5 I was in the greenside bunker and hit it to three feet. So those were my two birdies. But played pretty well. I feel like I'm due for a good one. I've kind of been just kind of playing okay, I would say, and hopefully tomorrow all facets show up.

Q. Seemed like you avoided the mistakes today too, which is always pretty important out here, I'm sure.

MIKE WEIR: Yeah, my only bogey, I missed a couple short putts on the first couple of holes, and actually No. 3 I hit a very good 5-iron that just rolled through the green and didn't get the ball up-and-down, so that was my only bogey. So, yeah, looking forward to tomorrow. I cleaned it up a little bit today, the other rounds were a little bit helter skelter, so to speak, a lot of bogeys and double bogeys, and kind of pieced it together. But today was more steady.

Q. A good round from Steve Flesch out here, you guys might play together tomorrow. Anything with being a lefty out here that helps out at all?

MIKE WEIR: I don't know. The whole holes set up pretty well for lefties. Fleschy had a great round today. If we get paired together that would be great and hopefully one of us has another one.
