FBR OPENJanuary 30, 2009James NittiesSCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA Q. It was a tough start but a nice comeback to finish off with a nice round of 2-under par 69 and 8-under total. JAMES NITTIES: No, it wasn't the ideal start that I was looking for, but fortunately my caddie kept me composed. I've been playing well the last couple weeks, so I just need to keep doing that. In the end I ended up finishing pretty well. Q. When you came out with that start with a bogey on 11 and a bogey on 12, what did you tell yourself? JAMES NITTIES: Well, first of all, all I wanted to do was hit a good drive down the next and get birdie, and I actually got lucky, I hung up against a hedge and made a good birdie and sort of stopped the bleeding a little bit and then managed to hit a good couple of shots on the next. Then birdied 15, 16, and 16 was probably the highlight that kept me going to get back in the tournament. Yeah, it wasn't a good start, but in the end it was good. Q. You were playing in the dark there, you make birdie at No. 8, and then what an up-and-down there at 9 out of the front bunker. JAMES NITTIES: I got lucky on that one there, actually hit the cart path -- it was going right of the green, hit the cart path and went in the bunker and bounced left. I nearly holed it, but I got really lucky on that hole. It was lucky I parred in. Obviously if I just play well the last couple days, I think I can do well. Q. After last week missing the cut by one, does it feel good to get your first cut under your belt? JAMES NITTIES: Yeah, I said to my caddie afterwards, "weekends are sweet." You know, I've been playing well, so it was about time, and to be near the lead is even better. End of FastScripts |
