Quick Quotes

Q. 8-under 63, excellent start. If we can get some comments on your round.

NICK DUNLAP: Yeah, very, very nice. Hit it well. I had my fade back finally. Spent a lot of time with Scott, who's caddied for me this week. Spent a lot of time on the putting green the first two days, and it finally paid off.

Q. Talk to us a little bit about this golf course too and just your thoughts on it.

NICK DUNLAP: Yeah, it's pretty neat. Not many times we get to play courses like this where you get lava rocks and such. I just enjoy being out here. It's a really pretty week.

Q. You've talked in the past a bit about driving the golf ball. You hit 14 of 14 fairways today, I believe, so just comment on that, the way you hit the driver.

NICK DUNLAP: Yeah, it's gotten a lot better. We've been working on some stuff, and it's nice that it paid off.

Q. Talk to us about the next few days and what you're hoping to accomplish not only this week but also in the fall.

NICK DUNLAP: Hopefully if I play the next three days like I did today, I think I'll be okay.

But no, I think I'm finally on the right track with some stuff. Now that I feel that way, now I can put the work in and know I'm heading in the right direction versus just kind of spinning my tail a little bit.
