Quick Quotes

Q. Is there anything this week maybe that you could transfer north up to Ponte Vedra?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: I hit my irons really nice. I wish I could have drove it a little bit better. Yeah, I got on the wrong side of a couple things out there, which cost me some shots. But overall, I felt like my iron play today was pretty sharp.

Q. We talked in the beginning of the week. New driver. After putting it through 72 holes, what's your take on that?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: Yeah, I feel like I saw some good things out of it. We'll see kind of going forward where I'll be at. But overall, I definitely saw some good things from it this week.

Q. Heading down to the PLAYERS, what kind of test is that?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: I mean, you got to strike it well. Around that golf course when you're hitting the ball in the right spots, you can shoot some low scores. I think the greens will definitely be a little bit different than they are this weekend with it being overseed. It could be more of a take spin off week where this week it's trying to add spin. So, yeah, kind of get used to that as the week goes on.

Q. Anything you would like to tighten up a little better as you head to TPC Sawgrass?

SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER: Really today one of the things I was hoping to feel a little bit better about was my iron play and got out there and I hit a lot of really, really nice iron shots. Some worked out, others got some wind shifts, but overall, I felt like I struck it really nicely today, which was an improvement I was hoping to see after yesterday.
