Alex, great playing. Thank you. Absolutely. What are you happiest about from your day today? Uh probably the my iron game. Um you know, putted well. I spent a lot of time putting these last three days trying to get used to these greens after being up on bent greens last week. Uh last week a little flatter greens. This week super sloppy. Um, so we spent a lot of time on the putting and that really went well, but the the the short shots, the irons were were better than they have been in a long time. Was there anything you kind of found last week in Minnesota that nice top 10 finish? Yeah, excuse me. Um, yeah, that’s the the whole reason why I played good last three days, you know, was that I kind of trusted the game. I went to kind of feel like I was team like setting up for the for a lower shot, then it’s easier for me to curve the ball both ways. Uh especially with wedges, irons, you know, to attack holes that are tough otherwise. But if if the pin is tucked on the left, for example, I was able to hit a little bit of a draw in there. Uh especially today. Yeah. What made you decide to make that change? Uh well, I think the first round last week, I shot one under struggling, only hit 10 greens. Um and I see everybody else on the leaderboard, you know, uh low scores. So, I I needed something big to happen and and um and I’ve done that sort of move before. I I’m very familiar with it, but just kind of stick with it. And uh it helps me a lot on the golf course, you know. How is I know you came back kind of mid-season from a couple injuries. How how is the health feeling right now? It’s good. I’m a little cold, but it doesn’t really affect the play, but uh um uh the body feels good. I’ve spent some time trying to get in shape, but um it it feels pretty good. And in terms of what you need to do to make the playoffs, obviously you’re on like a half season, so it’s not really that, but did you calculate at all what you Yeah, I think I need a win to get in, but uh uh but it it’s fun, you know. It’s fun to play good golf. Um I’m I’m really happy with the way I played today, not just the results. So, and the way I kind of took took on the golf course, me and my caddy. So I’m I’m very pleased
