ZURICH CLASSIC OF NEW ORLEANS


March 27, 2008


Steve Flesch


AVONDALE, LOUISIANA

Q. Steve, 69 today. I know it's not the way you wanted to finish with a couple of bogeys in closing holes, but it's in good position.
STEVE FLESCH: It is. I've never really been comfortable on this golf course. I liked English Turn pretty much, across town. But I haven't played very well here, so to get off to a better start -- you know, today, I'm happy about it.

Q. The wind was tricky out there with the clubbing because it was fresh really from when you started this morning?
STEVE FLESCH: Yeah, and plenty of long holes out here. Unfortunately they didn't move the tees up very much on some of the longer holes, which I thought they might, because there's really not a whole lot of room to hit it on some of them.
Tough golf course, and the wind plays a big factor. Like I said, I'm just happy to get this first round away.

Q. Typical Pete Dye construction where you've got all sorts of difficult little shots around the greens, and the greens throw a lot of the golf balls off; they don't receive well, do they?
STEVE FLESCH: No, but that's okay. I typically like all Pete Dye courses. It rewards good ball-striking and good iron play. Greens have a lot of undulation in them, but that's okay. It adds to the elements. But I like that it's demanding out here.
