ROCCO MEDIATE: Every hole? That would bore you guys to death here.
You know, I hit a good drive off 1 and hit a 6 iron to the middle of the green. In 1991 that's what I hit to the green was a 6 and 7 iron, pretty much.
No. 2 I hit it down the middle, laid up with a 3 wood in the bunker which is what I wanted to do. Almost got it up to the top but didn't and made a nice 5.
3, I drove it in the right rough with a 3 wood. Hit a little chip 8 iron into the tree 15 feet from the hole and made a nice 4. That pin is in a nasty pin well, they are all hard.
4, I hit a very nice 5 wood middle of the green, pin high, which surprised me and 2 putted. That hole is playable. Tiger's probably hitting a 3 iron there. What's wrong with that? I think it's fine.
5, I hit a decent drive, just a foot in the right rough and then I tried to play tried to revert back to 1960 and hit a little 5 iron run and bounce it short. I didn't want to carry it on top of the rough and it ran up to the top, looked at the hole and came back down and I 2 putted which was fine. I tried a shot that guys probably don't try very often which was cool.
6, I hit a 6 iron back 20 feet and missed.
7, I hit driver and 7 iron.
8, I hit it just in front of the green and pitched it about eight feet and missed.
9, I hit 7 iron eight feet above the pin and missed. That maybe was the fastest putt on the golf course because the wind was behind me, I'm like, "Oh, geez. I didn't hit a very good putt."
10, I hit a good drive and a 7 iron about 30 feet right of the hole. I didn't challenge that pin. That's one of my points. It's sitting right there going "come on, come on over here," but you can't. Unless you hit it perfect, you're going to make a 5, at least I am. I made my 2 putt.
11, I hit it in the left rough over there and made a birdie. I hit a 5 iron about ten feet and made that. I wasn't really trying to make 3, I was trying to make 4.
Then I hit a good shot on 12 with a 9 iron. You're standing up there on 12 with a 9 iron going, "just stay in there now, let's go." You get a little bit of miss and it's a 5. It may be the best hole of all time, that hole, with a 9 iron.
13 surprised me. In the practice round, I played with Phil and I played who did I play with on Sunday? I don't remember. I hit a driver right where I was looking, just outside the right edge of the left trees and it went this far through the fairway and kind of sat down, which is what the rough is for. I was surprised it went that far. I figured if I went on that line, I'll hit a 3 or 4 iron perfect but I laid up and made birdie, hit a sand wedge close, well, ten feet.
14 was an example of what I was saying outside and in here. I hit a good drive and I had 168 or something like that back into the wind a little bit. I wasn't thinking of seven iron but that was pushing it. I hit a 6 up in the air, carried it past the hole about five yards and made a birdie, a 30 footer. There is another example, if I hit 7 iron I'd still be out there chipping. I'd never leave the hole.
15, I hit it in the left rough and laid it up about 15 feet short of the hole and made that one par that broke a mile. I couldn't believe the break in that putt.
16, I hit a 7 iron, taking the long out of play and I didn't quite hit it long enough, hit it short and came done and 2 putted. If you challenge that pin, there's a lot of things that happen on that hole that are not pretty.
And 17 I hit a good drive just to the right rough about another yard at the most and I hit a 6 iron a little short, 2 putted.
18, I hit my best drive and a 6 iron just on the back fringe just missed for birdie and skipped into the scoring tent. (Laughter).
CRAIG HEATLEY: Adds up to a pretty good 68.
ROCCO MEDIATE: That was fun.
CRAIG HEATLEY: Well played and all the best for the rest of the week.
