Quick Quotes


Q. This morning you tweeted that someone else could come play your back nine. Are you glad you played it?

JOEL DAHMEN: I am glad. Terrible three-putt par on 9. Didn't have anything going today. Made par on 10. I told Geno, I'm done; I'm impatient and I'm grumpy, and then good things happened. Made a good birdie on 11 and hooped an 8-iron on 12 and made an eagle on 15, and all of a sudden I was pretty happy I played the back nine.

Q. Highlighted by two eagles and on par-4s; walk me through those.

JOEL DAHMEN: Yeah, Geno and I joked, we were going back this calendar year, I don't think I had made an eagle until Friday. I chipped in on 15. The drivable 15 is a great one for me. A lot of guys have to hit 3-wood or driver. It's a good driver for me and it just worked out. Hit it hole high.

Then on 12 with the 8-iron, it's a really greasy pin back there next to the water. I hit a great shot. I even told Geno I hit it perfect and played off the slope, and we didn't expect it to go in, obviously, but when it does, it's a huge bonus.

Q. Where are you feeling most confident about your game going into tomorrow's round?

JOEL DAHMEN: I'm hitting it really well. My putter is a joke right now. It's tough to shoot 7-under with bad putting, but I managed to do that. I'm hitting it great. I'm in the fairway a lot. My irons are pretty dialed in. If I can make some putts, it would be a great Sunday.

Q. Any plans for the afternoon or score predictions?

JOEL DAHMEN: Huge game for Washington. I think we're down one right now, 15-14 so I'm going to get behind a TV, probably ditch the kid for a couple hours. I don't have a plan; I'm just going to get to a TV and check it out.
