WASTE MANAGEMENT PHOENIX OPENFebruary 1, 2014Ryan MooreSCOTTSDALE, ARIZONA Q. Today is moving day. 64 will do it. RYAN MOORE: Yeah, it wasn't looking too pretty there the front nine, but I hit a lot of good shots. The greens out there are firm and they're tough. It was tough to get around the hole, and I hit a lot of good shots that didn't end up close to the hole, and then finally kind of got a little momentum on the back nine and hit a few nice iron shots and made a few putts, made a couple bonus putts in there, and was able to cap it off with a nice birdie on 18. Q. You talked to the momentum. Share with us about the energy on those holes, 15, 16, and into the close. RYAN MOORE: I mean, Bill Haas and I were talking about it today on even 15 walking up. There's just nothing like hitting a shot on 16. It definitely gets you a little jacked up. It was 131 yards today, and I hit a 52‑degree and I flew it about 134. I usually hit that club about 115. So, I mean, it just says it, there's a different energy in there, gets you a little pumped up, and, I mean, you can rip some shots. Q. A Washington boy, I'm assuming you're up for the Seahawks tomorrow night? RYAN MOORE: Yeah, you know, I have been wearing the colors all week, doing the best I can to represent the Seahawks. But, yeah, we're excited. I think it's going to be a fun game, and obviously, you know, can't wait to watch it. Q. What was really working for you today? RYAN MOORE: You know, I drove it a little better today. I had driven it close to good the last couple of days but just not precise enough for as firm as these fairways are. It was just chasing through a little bit. Finally I hit a lot of fairways today. And I was hitting a lot of really nice iron shots today. They weren't turning out on the front side, although I kept hitting good shots. So I was stayed patient with it, didn't get too frustrated. And those shots turned into good shots now, you know, on the back nine. I was, you know, hitting those shots that kept bouncing through greens on the front. They were going eight to ten feet. And then I made a nice long kind of bonus birdie putt on 12 for birdie, I think it was. Yeah, 12. You know, had some good momentum and made solid birdies from then on. Q. Nice, I'm sure, to end up on a birdie and grab your son. Nice 5, 10 minutes finishing strong and seeing your family. RYAN MOORE: Yeah, exactly. It's always nice walking off the course and seeing my boy at the end of it. I'm a new father. He's only one year old. But it's great. Nothing quite like it whether you have a good day or bad day. It's great.
