Quick Quotes

Q. What does this mean to you and why are you so good on the big stages?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: I don't know, I mean, this is a special tournament. Any time you can win a major championship is pretty cool, and I'm proud of how I did this week just staying in it mentally and hitting the shots when I needed to.

This back nine will be one that I remember for a long time. It was a grind out there. I think at one point on the front I maybe had a four- or five-shot lead, and making the turn, I think I was tied for the lead.

So to step up when I needed to the most, I'll remember that for a while.

Q. What do you consider to be your greatest attributes to play in the major championships?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: You know, I always try to lean as much as I can on my mind. I think that's probably my greatest strength. You know, like today and this week I really just feel like I did just such a good job of staying patient when I wasn't swinging it my best but I hit the shots when I needed to.

I hit the important shots well this week, and that's why I'm walking away with the trophy. The shots on the golf course that are most important, those are the ones I feel like I did my best at this week and maybe at times out there, some of the easier ones maybe I lost a bit of focus or something but overall when I needed to, I feel like I hit the shots.
