ZURICH CLASSIC OF NEW ORLEANS


April 19, 2007


Tom Johnson


AVONDALE, LOUISIANA

Q. Nice round today.
TOM JOHNSON: Thank you, it was a good day. I made some putts finally. It was good. I just played solid. I didn't really hit it extraordinarily well, but I kept it loose.
I was just trying to have fun with it. Me and my caddie TC did a good job of that, got some putts to go.

Q. You looked like you were having a good time out on the golf course. How big of a deal is that?
TOM JOHNSON: It's huge for me because lately I've just been kind of putting too much pressure on myself and getting in my own way, and that's the last thing I want to do is get in my own way. I just figure I'm going to try to have fun no matter where the ball goes, and it worked today. It seems like a good strategy.

Q. You're in the right town to have a good time, New Orleans. Tell me a little bit about this golf course.
TOM JOHNSON: It's a good track. I'm a rookie so it's my first time seeing it, but with all the changes and everything, I think that's a good thing because it's kind of new for everybody. It's a little bit soft right now. The greens are at a pace where you can kind of go at them a little bit and not really worry about running them off the green or everything. So it's good. If you want to be aggressive, it's a little softer, you can hit some putts aggressively.

Q. Rookie on Tour, first time to New Orleans. Have you been to Bourbon Street yet? Tell me the truth.
TOM JOHNSON: I have, I have. My caddie TC is from New Orleans, and we actually stayed on Bourbon Street when he got married here. I've seen it before. This time is a little more mellow, though. I'm being a little better.

Q. You've got to stick to business just a little bit.
TOM JOHNSON: Exactly.

Q. Great playing today, keep it up the rest of the week.
TOM JOHNSON: Thanks.
