BUICK CLASSIC


June 13, 2004


Tom Byrum


HARRISON, NEW YORK

Q. Just talk about your emotion on the back nine. You had the eagle on 9 to get to 13 and then went double on 16 and -- (inaudible).

TOM BYRUM: It was up-and-down like you said. I just couldn't get comfortable with my swing. My putter felt really good, I just couldn't get it on the green quick enough. I'd like to play that last hole given all that happened up until the last hole. It was a bad drive on the last hole.

The way the putter was feeling, I'd like to try it over. But it was good. I hadn't been there in a while. I'll figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Q. I think you said you hadn't been there for a while. What would it have meant to you to either get into the playoff or --

TOM BYRUM: Oh, of course, it would have meant everything. That's what I'm here for. I mean, just to get a chance. It doesn't happen too often for me it seems anymore, so I need to get in there and hang in there. I just couldn't quite hang in there today.

Q. What did you hit on 9, driver?

TOM BYRUM: 4-wood.

Q. 4-wood to what, about?

TOM BYRUM: Ten feet.

Q. How far did you have -- (inaudible)?

TOM BYRUM: I don't remember, 240 maybe.

Q. On 16 where you took the drop, was that just a bad lie?

TOM BYRUM: I had a bad lie, yeah. There was a sprinkler there. I would have hit into like a cover. It was a pretty good lie but I didn't want to be influenced by that so I moved it off there.

Q. That was no gimme for bogey.

TOM BYRUM: No. I mean, like I said, I just couldn't get it on the green soon enough.

Q. And then when you made the birdie on 17, were you kind of like -- (inaudible).

TOM BYRUM: Yeah, I had that par 5 looking at me and I'm a good wedge player and I'm putting good. All I have to do is drive it in the fairway and I've got a chance for birdie. That's the only thing disappointing about my whole round is at the end I just didn't -- it was unfortunate.
