WGC ACCENTURE MATCH PLAY CHAMPIONSHIPFebruary 22, 2014Jim FurykMARANA, ARIZONA Q. How would you grade today? JIM FURYK: I played well. I'm honestly disappointed with the finish. I hit some good shots down the stretch. I hit it as good as I could on 18. I thought I flagged the 8‑iron, I'm surprised it came up short. I've been getting the ball up and down really well, and hit terrific chips on 17 and 18. Disappointed. I fought all the way back from 3‑down. I had all the momentum and I didn't put the ball on the fairway on 17 and didn't put the ball in the fairway on 18. I don't feel I handed the match away, but I definitely made it too easy on the last two holes. Q. How hard was that chip on 18? A lot of us could tell you were down, how difficult was that? JIM FURYK: It was a little bit of a lie. I was in the short cut with a little bit of grain against me and expected it to be sticky. I've been working all week really on the sticky overseed of making sure I really accelerated the club through the ball and I didn't there. I kind of decelerated and quit on it. Just a poor shot. It wasn't an easy shot, but I should have been able to get it up there within six or seven feet inside, at least to give myself a par chance. Q. Overall, the week, your play has been very, very consistent, though? JIM FURYK: Yeah, I just‑‑ I think really what the difference was today that I just didn't hit it in the fairways. And when I missed the fairways, the ball didn't turn out in a very good spot. I felt like I got some bad breaks with where the ball ended up. When I hit‑‑ I didn't hit the ball enough in the fairway. I felt like I was putting better than I was the last few days. But because I didn't put the ball in the fairway enough, I didn't give myself enough opportunities. Q. At the start of the week would you have taken quarter finals on Saturday? JIM FURYK: Well, I don't think any athlete would‑‑ Q. Not satisfied with it? JIM FURYK: No, I don't think any athlete would. It ruins the whole fun. I feel like I played well. But if you told me I could have 5th every week, there would be no reason to show up.
