Quick Quotes

Q. When you come to Scotland, you expect rain, wind. Did you ever have fog on your Bingo card here in Scotland?

MICHAEL THORBJORNSEN: No. Might have expected a little bit just in the mornings, but I didn't know that fog was this much in play throughout the whole day.

Yeah, this is crazy. I've never seen anything like this.

Q. How challenging was it today?

MICHAEL THORBJORNSEN: It wasn't too bad. A couple holes early on on 4 on the water made things a little difficult and a little harder to commit to certain lines.

But kind of toward the end of the round, the last three holes, I mean, you hit drivers up in the air and you kind of lose it just before it reaches the apex and you just kind of trust yourself that you hit some good shots.

Yeah, it was tough. But for the most part it was okay.

Q. And you played well today, put yourself in great position. What would be a longer day than normal, what is the mentality or attitude that you have to bring to the golf course tomorrow?

MICHAEL THORBJORNSEN: Same attitude you come in with every single day. Main priority now is trying to get some rest. It's almost 9.00 here, and I think we are restarting at 7.00. It's going to be a very quick turnaround and another quick turnaround tomorrow morning or early afternoon.
