Quick Quotes

Q. Usually at this time on a Sunday, if you have a lead in the PGA TOUR, it means you're playing late. But doesn't take away from a great round of golf, even though it was delayed. Tell me how you got it done today.

JOHNNY KEEFER: Yeah, I showed up, and I was, I wouldn't say pleasantly delayed. But it was nice to kind of take my time and be able to eat twice before going off and teeing off.

Yeah, I just kind of stayed in my routine. You know, chilled for a little bit, and then got going. Me and Joe, my caddie, went and practised a little bit before. But not too much.

Q. How much of an adjustment was it in these conditions today, it's a cooler breeze, the ball is not travelling as far with the wind, as opposed to what you played the first two rounds?

JOHNNY KEEFER: Just the theme of links golf is being creative and being flexible, and understanding that things that are usually going to happen sometimes don't. And whether that's a good shot or whether that's just the weather, I think I had the mindset this week that anything can change, and I knew that it was going to be a little colder so I could kind of prep a little bit.

Yeah, the wind has gotten up. It's switched directions three times in the week that we've been here. Yeah, just kind of going with the flow.
