Quick Quotes


Q. Just your overall assessment of your first round here at the Sanderson Farms Championship.

SERGIO GARCIA: Well, I guess a little bit sweet and sour, I guess. Very happy about not making bogeys, obviously that's always a very positive thing, first round of the season bogey-free, very proud of that. But at the same time I feel like I drove the ball quite well and didn't take a lot of, didn't take advantage of it. Didn't hit my irons badly, but I just didn't hit them close enough and I was always pretty much all day in that 15 to 25 foot range and hit some really good putts that looked like they were going to go in and didn't. Unfortunately, I was only able to make two birdies.

Q. How is your energy level coming off only a couple days off after the Ryder Cup?

SERGIO GARCIA: I mean it's okay. It's obviously it's not the same. I'm not going to lie to you. But I feel pretty good. I had a couple good days of rest at home in Austin with Angela and the kiddos and then flew here on Tuesday afternoon, obviously had nine holes on the pro-am on Wednesday and I feel pretty good. Obviously a little bit tired, but nothing out of the ordinary, I guess.

Q. Do you have some good memories getting out there on the course after the win here last year?

SERGIO GARCIA: Yeah, obviously, yes, it was great to win here last year and I'm excited to come, to have the possibility to come here, coming here and defend my title, so hopefully we'll have three really good days and see if we can manage to do that.

Q. If there's one thing you want to improve on for tomorrow's round going out tomorrow morning what would that be?

SERGIO GARCIA: Definitely hit it a little bit closer, as simple as that. I felt like I hit a lot of good putts, not every one of them went in, but I hit some good putts. I hit some good iron shots, but it was a little bit gusty and I struggled to get my distances right. So instead of being five or six feet I was probably about 15, 20 feet. So it's always a little bit tougher when you're in that range, but we'll try to improve on that tomorrow.
