Sergio Garcia

Quick Quotes

Q. Obviously you were frustrated early in your round. Had that been building through the week? What happened?

SERGIO GARCIA: Through the year. Yeah. Just obviously not super proud of it, but sometimes it happens.

Q. Take us through what happened later on that hole when you were carrying Jon's bag.

SERGIO GARCIA: There was nothing. Adam stopped to rake my bunker, and Benji, my caddie, was carrying both bags, so I told him, just put it down, I'll get it so you can go and get a yardage. Just as simple as that.

Q. What did they tell you on the 4th hole?

SERGIO GARCIA: I'm not going to tell you.

Q. You talked coming into the week about how frustrating this year has been overall. Is that just a culmination of everything, too? What's the plan to try to --

SERGIO GARCIA: No, it's not a combination of everything. It's fine. It's what it is. You've just got to deal with it.

Q. How much more difficult does it make it strategy-wise with you not being able to use a driver?

SERGIO GARCIA: It makes it very easy. I just have to hit 3-wood all the time. I didn't have to choose another club.

Q. Your record here since you won is surprising to a lot of us. Is there a theme there or one reason for it? How do you explain that?

SERGIO GARCIA: Bad golf.

Q. Is there something specific here that has happened --

SERGIO GARCIA: Bad shots.

Q. But you can do that anywhere, but you win here and we would think you know how to play this golf course, so there must be more to it.

SERGIO GARCIA: Well, if you don't hit good shots, you're not going to score well here. It's very simple.

Q. You've just coincidentally hit bad shots here, a lot since you've won. Is it as simple as that?

SERGIO GARCIA: Yeah, unfortunately a lot of bad shots.

Q. Did they give you a warning or something on the 4th --

SERGIO GARCIA: Next question, please.
