MASTERS TOURNAMENT


April 5, 2007


Tim Clark


AUGUSTA, GEORGIA

Q. Regarding the 18th hole.
TIM CLARK: It is extremely tough on the 18th. I was lucky with the tee shot and 3-iron up. The putt was tough as I had had to use the slope of the bank. It was 60 feet. And I was about eight or nine feet off the green.
I putted it and it was like a U-turn. It went just off the green and came back. It was exciting, but not as much as the broken shot last year.

Q. Regarding his round.
TIM CLARK: I tried not to make any mistakes. I was putting cautiously. I had chances, but I made a lot of good 2-putt pars. I realized you don't have to go out and attack the golf course, especially on the first day. The greens are extremely firm. I tried to give myself easy pars. I put myself into position to make par. The bigger hitter will had have a few more chances and can go for a few more.
I learned consistent rounds can keep you in with a chance to win on Sunday.
Last year gave me a lot more confidence.

Q. Regarding history.
TIM CLARK: Of all the tournaments, this is the one you want to win. This is obviously a very special place. I remember watching Jack on TV in 1986 when I was 10. As a kid I dreamed of just walking and watching this course. But to be here and play is a dream. Watching a 2:00 a.m. broadcast in South Africa was just kind of surreal.
I'm getting a lot of stiffness, but feel better.
