SENIOR PGA CHAMPIONSHIP PRESENTED BY KITCHENAIDMay 23, 2014Mark BrooksBENTON HARBOR, MICHIGAN Q. You don't like to bogey a par‑5. MARK BROOKS: No, but I thought I hit a great third shot, so when it was in the air, I thought I hit it perfect. The wind just kind of beat it down. I kind of got in a funny spot. But I played good. I actually played a little better today. I just didn't makes a many putts. Q. That would have been hard from what you did yesterday, with the way you putted. MARK BROOKS: Well, I missed some yesterday. I mean, dude. Q. The stats say you had 21 putts yesterday. MARK BROOKS: Well, you're going to be on a lot of edges. You can end up just off the green‑‑ I think I only chipped two or three times yesterday, so I putted from just off the green, so that turns into a one putt on the stats, they're very misleading. I'm not a stat guy, okay. If there's rough, hitting fairways are important and these fairways are pretty generous here, for the most part. So, no, I'm not a big stat guy, the stat that counts is what you shoot, so. Q. Your results so far this year would not have indicated that this was imminent. Is there a reason why you're playing so well this week? MARK BROOKS: I think the sporadic schedule is a little tougher on me. I'm not ‑‑ I don't like playing a week and then have two weeks off and then a couple weeks and a couple weeks off. And that's pretty much been the way it is from January until now. I think we played more than a couple weeks in a row. So I like to play and it's been very difficult going home and our weather has been really nasty in Dallas/Fort Worth area. So it's not been a very good year for getting your golf game going. Q. Regardless of how you had played this week, would you play at ‑‑ MARK BROOKS: I've been doing it this a long time, dude. I mean, you can miss, you could miss eight cuts in a row and win the next tournament. We know how to do it, I know how to play golf, so, you know, it's ‑‑ I'm not being a smart alec either, it could happen at any moment. So I'm not surprised when I play good. I'm more surprised when I play bad. Q. Would you play the PGA Championship, regardless of winning here or as past champion? MARK BROOKS: I don't have to win here to play the PGA Championship. Yeah, I plan on playing this year. I do plan on playing this year. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports |
