Quick Quotes

Q. Kiefer Jones, plus 1 today, even for the championship, tied T-11 in the overall standings. Can you just walk me through your round today?

KIEFER JONES: Started out pretty decent. Maybe hit a few long putts kind of short but converted the pars. It was a little bit tense to start, just stressful par putts. Then settled in and started hitting the ball really close to the hole and didn't really make anything today.

No complaints, but so far it's my best U.S. Adaptive so far. So I'm happy about it, yeah.

Q. Going into tomorrow, is there anything that you're looking to work on today to kind of see some better success tomorrow?

KIEFER JONES: Just make more putts. It always comes down to putting. Just didn't make any putts. They weren't bad putts. They were burning the edge or lip-outs, but they just weren't going in today.

If I can hit the ball as close as I did today to the hole and give myself as many chances that I did, there's no doubt I'll make a few more tomorrow.

Q. Overall, you've been here now for a few days seeing the course. Do you feel like you're a little bit more comfortable now as you're kind of going through some of these holes?

KIEFER JONES: Yeah, for sure, and visually impaired players, the more you play a course, the better it is, the more comfortable you are.

So having played it last year as well and four times so far this year, the course feels a little bit more gettable this year because it's softer. Yeah, I feel like I've just got to go out and keep doing what I'm doing. Hopefully, like I said, they just start falling in a little bit.

Q. What do the next 24 hours look like for you as you get ready for the final day of the championship?

KIEFER JONES: Just kind of relax. Do the same thing I've been doing every night: Relax, have dinner, hang out with some of the guys that I only get to see once, twice a year maybe.

Yeah, just kind of relax and have fun and go through the same routine in the morning and keep things consistent.
