Jose Luis Ballester

Quick Quotes

Q. What do you take out of these last two days that you've learned possibly playing with Scottie and JT or just in general, the entire experience?

JOSÉ LUIS BALLESTER: Yeah, definitely that these guys are here especially because of how good they are around the greens, how much knowledge they have, how good they are at perceiving the slopes and reading greens.

I hit many good shots with drivers and irons both days, but what I felt that those guys are in a completely level from where I am is around the greens. It was not a great week for me in that aspect, but also looking forward to the next opportunities that I get to see how I compare myself with them.

Q. Did you get any response or any texts or calls from any of your friends possibly about what happened yesterday? Any kidding you or --

JOSÉ LUIS BALLESTER: Not really. I try to stay away from social media. A couple friends reached out just to say hey, you'll be fine. I'm still your friend.

So yeah, it's good to have those friends that have your back when the news is not that good about you.

Q. Did anybody here say anything?

JOSÉ LUIS BALLESTER: Well, I already apologized to the club, and I think we just move on from this moment.
