AT&T PEBBLE BEACH NATIONAL PRO-AMFebruary 7, 2013Ryuji ImadaPEBBLE BEACH, CALIFORNIA Q. Just talk about your round. RYUJI IMADA: Well, I finished well. I made birdie on 11 and 12, which I started on 10 from about ten feet, and after that I just kept making pars. The greens are really tough out here. They are in good shape, a little bit bumpy, especially with the amount of play we get. I made the turn at 2‑under, made birdie on 3 from about five feet. And made a bogey on 6, which is a par 5, and you know, a little bit disappointed making bogey on the par5. Got to 7‑‑ (inaudible) ‑‑ the hole‑in‑one, we got excited about it, and I ended up making a putt from about probably 40 feet. Q. After? RYUJI IMADA: Obviously after him making a hole‑in‑one. On 8, made another putt from about 30 feet, and 9, hit a pretty good tee shot but didn't take the wind like I thought it would. And ended up making another 30 feet and made that. Q. Ever had a run like that before of putting? RYUJI IMADA: Obviously I have, but not ones that I can remember. Q. The general consensus, the greens are tough, bumpy? RYUJI IMADA: Here, yes. Q. How do you make it‑‑ RYUJI IMADA: Just hit‑and‑hope. The ones I made were fairly straight putts. Especially on 8. But although they were uphill putts, so that helped. You get downhill putts, they are a little bit scary. I missed a short one from about four feet on 6 for par. They are a little bit tough but makeable. Q. With your status, is there more of a sense of urgency to seize the moment? RYUJI IMADA: I'm just trying to take it day by day. Yeah, obviously I like to play well, but that's not any different than I was trying to play well last year or the year before. I mean, obviously I had opportunities to play but all you can do is just give it 100 percent and move on. Q. Where have you played this year so far? RYUJI IMADA: Sony. Q. Find it frustrating on the short season and the difficulty of getting in fields? RYUJI IMADA: It is what it is. You've got to deal with it. Everybody's doing the same thing. Just got to play well. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports |
