Quick Quotes


Q. . . . . .

Q. The match went back and forth; how did you keep your composure during that stretch?

COHEN TROLIO: I just kept doing the same thing. I mean, really I guess it kind of boils down to playing a guy like that who kind of -- like he knows what kind of golfer he is and he knows what he can do. He's driving it down the middle of the fairway, basically hitting it on every green.

Like when it comes to that stuff, you've just got to get the tee box -- whoever has got the tee box has got to put the pressure on, if you want to say that. Really you try to hit it in there and be like, Dude, you're going to have to make eagle to beat me. You know what I mean?

That's kind of how I played from there on out. I guess, shoot, I don't know how much the match switched from literally 1 to -- I don't even know, 1 to like 16. I think we were back and forth like the whole time. I think that each of us probably had a lead twice, maybe three times in that moment.

But man, composure is weird. You don't really think about it when it's coming in on you.

Q. The shot of the day and what might have been the shot of the tournament so far was your third one an 18.

COHEN TROLIO: Yeah, that was money. I've hit at the back of the range, hit about 4 million of those 110-yard shots. It was kind of just there for me.

Q. You haven't really had a tight match so far until that one. How does it feel now that you've gotten over that going forward?

COHEN TROLIO: Yeah, no, it's good. As it comes down to whatever, I don't even know how many people are left, but each person kind of has their own -- I mean, they're playing well. It's the last eight people in the event. They kind of have their own viewpoint on match play and how that's played, and really that's the only thing that separates between us.

Q. You're in the U.S. Junior Amateur quarterfinals; how does that feel?

COHEN TROLIO: I haven't really done much yet, but we'll see if I can figure out what to do.

Q. You had some success in Pinehurst in 2019. How are you going to use that success both in match play and just knowing how it feels to make a deep run?

COHEN TROLIO: Yeah, that was awesome. Obviously I made it to semifinalist. But just learning from that, like that helped me grow into the golfer I am now. So like learning from those, like I say mistakes, but you can't really say mistakes. I had never been in that position before. But the mistakes I made, I obviously know what my brain was thinking and how they were thinking, so I'm just not going to do that this week.
