2025 3M Open Jake Knapp Friday Flash Interview
bogey free with round 64 65. How you feeling heading into the weekend? Uh feel good. Feel like I’m kind of doing everything pretty good for the most part. I haven’t made too many putts, but uh but yeah, feel like it’s been, you know, kind of mistake free for the most part and haven’t really had to scramble too much. So, yeah, felt pretty uh pretty easy over the last two days. Do you think this course suits your game? And if so, what about it? Yeah, I think so. I think there’s, you know, a few holes where I can take advantage of my length, which is nice. But, um, you know, for the most part, course kind of tells you where you can and can’t go. So, it’s just a matter of execution. And, um, yeah, there’s a few, you know, kind of option A, option B holes where maybe you can hit driver or lay back, kind of depending on the wind. So, um, yeah, I think it I think it fits me well. And, you know, I’m hitting it well right now, so I think that fits even better. What do you do in your week off last week? Did you stay over in the UK or did you come back here and practice? No, I came back. Um, kind of just tried to make sure I didn’t get too bad of jet lag and then uh and then just stayed home. It was my girlfriend’s birthday on Friday, so she came into town and just just practiced and played pretty much every day. And then inside the top 70, outside the top 50 for playoffs, is that on your mind? Are you thinking about that this week at all? Not really. I mean, like, of course it’s in the back of your mind and whatnot, but I’m not thinking about it all while I’m playing, you I mean, you’re still, you know, I still like to try and win golf tournaments. You know, we got a few left to end the season. So, that’s really the only thing I’m thinking about when I’m out there. Your results the last couple years have been pretty consistent. I mean, you had the win last year, but otherwise kind of um on par, I guess. Uh what have you learned the second year, though? Um, I think I’ve just found kind of my routine and what sort of works for me week in week out and um kind of found, you know, like the number of events I like to play in a row and maybe the courses I kind of like to play, but for the most part I play just about everything. So, um, but yeah, I think just mainly my my weekly routine and I do a good job sticking to that and just getting myself prepared week in week out. Perfect. Thank you.
