This is definitely uncharted territory for me. But it has been so much fun. I was very steady today and very confident in what I could do. This week feels very much the same as the week at last year's Mid-Amateur. I'm confident in everything I'm doing.

I was very steady today and confident in what I could do. I'm relaxed. I'm letting the club go. I'm not worried about where the ball is going.

I just played pretty steady. This golf course is a difficult golf course so if you just hit fairways and greens and make a few putts here and there, you're going to win a bunch of holes. And I think that's the strength of my game -- keeping the ball in front of me.

Did I ever get lucky. I hit it dead in the middle of the ball. It would have gone 125 yards if it didn't hit the bank. It hit right into the face of the bank, popped straight up in the air and ended up about six feet from the hole. It was the best break I've ever had on the golf course. I think he really started pressing a lot after that.

You know, it's pretty exciting when you see a guy sink two shots like that from way off the green.

None of us knew what to expect but there was absolutely no pressure. It was incredibly fun and easy going.
