Quick Quotes

Q. Can you explain what it was like with your first time in a team playoff? Kind of a unique situation.

DAVID PUIG: It was fun. We had a good partnership, especially a hole like this. Good driver. The second shot came out and just hit it. Obviously the chip wasn't really good. It hurts. It hurts to be the only one with a bogey and just letting your team down a little bit.

I had a good week. So I guess it's okay.

Q. Were you surprised at all that Sergio picked you two guys and didn't pick himself?

DAVID PUIG: Not really honestly. He mentioned that he was pretty tired. I mean, if it would have been maybe a par-3 or a shorter par-4 where power is not important, but I think here Josele and I, we have some sort of an advantage compared to him a little bit. Maybe a little bit, you know.

He probably thought that was the best thing, and he also mentioned he was really tired. I guess it was what it was.

Q. How does the game feel going into the PGA next week?

DAVID PUIG: It's feeling all right. I think I've been scoring pretty good. I didn't really hit it very good off the tee this week, especially with the driver. A little off with the driver, but I think the rest of the game is pretty solid. I didn't make many putts this week, but I hit good putts. So I'm not worried about that.

The driver has been a weapon the last year or two years, and I feel that, when I hit fairways, then I'm at my best obviously. I've been a little offline, just a little bit. If I can find something with the driver and go a touch more straight, then I'll be feeling very good.
