TV Quotes


Q. Justin, math told us at the beginning of the day you had a very slim chance of winning. At what point in your round did you know that you could get it done for a second time?

JUSTIN THOMAS: I don't know. It was a bizarre day. I definitely crossed one off the list, and I've never won a tournament shanking a ball on Sunday, so that was a first, and man, I would really like it to be a last.

Bones did an unbelievable job of just keeping me in the moment today. We just tried to play the golf course for what it is, and this place is so tough.

It's funny, I was asked earlier in the week about what lead is safe, and I said, no lead. This place is so tough. But if you hit the fairways you can make birdies, and I stayed so patient, I just couldn't believe I found myself in a playoff.

Q. Take us back to the playoff; the 17th hole, your tee shot, where does that rank in terms of your nerves, what you were feeling and how you executed that shot?

JUSTIN THOMAS: That was a nice one. I mean, the wind off the left with a 3-wood isn't exactly my favorite, so I hit a beautiful shot in regulation in that bunker like we wanted to, and I just -- I hit essentially the same shot, just had a little bit more cut on it, and for it to go up on the green was nice just to put a little bit of heat on Will. But I like these 17th holes in the PGA Championship, so I'd like to keep making a habit of that.
