Justin Thomas

Quick Quotes

Q. Can you tell us about it?

JUSTIN THOMAS: Yeah. It's hard to honestly remember after the chaos out there with all the kids. It's a special day. It's really fun. Obviously a beautiful day. And hopefully just a great start to a great week.

Q. How important is this afternoon in particular for your kind of preparation for the week-long marathon?

JUSTIN THOMAS: I mean, mentally it's great, right? It's probably the least stress, the most relaxed we'll be on a golf course. It's depending on what guys are doing, either practice before or maybe do something after or vice versa.

But it's nice to be on the golf course, on the grounds of Augusta National and not be stressed about where the ball is going to go or it being overly difficult. It's just nothing but fun out here.
