THE MEMORIAL TOURNAMENT PRESENTED BY WORKDAY


June 2, 2022


Cameron Smith


Dublin, Ohio, USA

Muirfield Village

Press Conference


Q. Nice, to get to 5-under par how would you assess the round today?

CAMERON SMITH: A little bit of a grind, actually. Had to make a few good pars on that last nine for me, the front nine. It was just good to kind of hang in there, make a few birdies, see a few putts going in. I think this is about as easy as this place is going to get today. I think it's going to be a lot of stressful golf and a lot of grinding over the weekend. Nice to kind of take the box there early in the week.

Q. Jordan said he had to reassess how to play the golf course a little bit from the ball bouncing to Tuesday to now having to carry it deeper. Did you find it similar on the greens?

CAMERON SMITH: Yes, usually takes us two or three holes to kind of figure out what's going on. The greens around here are about as good as it gets. You know they're going to be consistent. Just really need to hit fairways, being able to control the ball into the greens. The rough was quite sticky today. So off the fairways the course was giving up a few shots, I think, but just great.

Q. Big stretch of golf here. Where do you feel your game is right now?

CAMERON SMITH: Feels really good. My game has felt pretty good all season. I just need to stay on top of a few things. I think just really stay on top of my driver, my irons feel really good. Just need to keep hitting fairways and keep contending.

Q. What do you feel has been one of the biggest things for you this year as far as your consistency goes?

CAMERON SMITH: Yeah, I think I've had good and bad weeks in the past. I feel as though I've just done a little bit of extra work at home this year, really staying on top of a couple of technique things. And it's allowed me to free up out here and just play like a kid, hit different shots into the greens and make birdies.

Q. How did winning the Players Championship change you or anything about your game or change your life?

CAMERON SMITH: I don't know, it was really good to play on a really good golf course like that against the best players in the world and get it done. I think that for me was probably the first time where all the big names have been -- it was just good to put together four good rounds and come out with a win.

Q. Have you played the country club?

CAMERON SMITH: No.
