Quick Quotes

Q. Tough round out there today for you, right?

TOMMY FLEETWOOD: Yeah. Yeah, it wasn't very good, no.

Q. Can you take anything positive out of the last two rounds? You started so strong the first two rounds.

TOMMY FLEETWOOD: Just would look at it as motivation for things that need to be better. I was a long way from being good enough to contend this weekend.

I hit the ball -- I struck the ball well for a lot of that 36 holes, but too many mistakes. Hit it in the wrong place too many times. Short game was awful and didn't putt the way I did in the first two rounds.

Just take from it there's stuff that I need to work on.

Q. Is it even more frustrating if you see especially Tyrrell in this case or others flying up the leaderboard with birdies, birdies?

TOMMY FLEETWOOD: Well, that's what you have to do if you're going to have a chance, and those guys -- Shane played great yesterday. The two guys that played with Shane played great yesterday. Tyrrell played great today. Very happy for those guys. Obviously it's great to watch them doing so well.

But for me, just look at aspects of my game that are -- that were a long way off the mark. These events come around four times a year, and you have to be better if you're going to do better in them.

Q. What would you say was the biggest problem?

TOMMY FLEETWOOD: My scoring this weekend was dreadful. Like I say, I hit the ball well for a lot of it. My long game wasn't the problem at all. You're going to hit bad shots at some point. I hit a handful of bad shots.

But some errors hitting it in the wrong spots, and then yeah, just didn't have it at all. Yeah, that was that.

Q. Is it easy for you to kind of tick it off now and move on or because it's the Masters, it's the big one --

TOMMY FLEETWOOD: Well, got no choice. Tomorrow is a new day. Look, like I say, I have to now look at what I can do better, start working on that, and into the tournament straight away next week, get ready for that, hopefully play well, and then major season is started now.

The good stuff was how I started. I felt like I prepared really well this week and I started really well, was in contention for two days, so there's that bit to look on. So half was in the right place, half wasn't. Look at what you need to do better, the bad half, and take what was good in the first half.

Q. I know you embrace the place where you're in, but I wondered what motivated you to wear the Augusta logo this week and what does it mean for you?

TOMMY FLEETWOOD: No, I just have the luxury of being able to wear what I want. It's one of those things, as a golf fan, and Augusta is a special place and it's a special logo, I think just in a lucky situation where I got to wear the logo this week.
