Eric great playing uh once again in Mexico which seems to be one of your favorite places on the globe why is that why does Mexico bring out some of your best golf is it the wind is it the grass I I don’t know um if I think about
Chipot toek a few years ago the WGC we had there it was kakuyu grass Ben F I mean Ben Cross greens that’s what I grew up on a little bit different here it’s I don’t know what it is it’s got to be the food the people um the whole bang you
Celebrated a 34th birthday yesterday happy birthday how do you assess kind of where you are some people say the mid-30s is kind of The Sweet Spot of a player’s career I’d like to think so I feel like I’m stepping into my best golf um had a few injuries the last few years
And I’m finally healthy and and good golf starting to show up so I’d like to think the best golf is still ahead of me um I told my wife yesterday that you know next year I’m 35 I’m closer to 40 than I am 30 so I’m going to enjoy 34
For now what was the best part of your game today as the win seemed to pick up as the end of the round came to a close yeah probably I play um hits it beautifully all day uh there’s a couple t- shot that you have
To navigate out here 10 comes to mind I did that really well um greedily I feel like I left a few out there but then again a shot like six the three on head into that PO five turned out great like I’m not planning to hit
It to six feet to that flag you know so but a give and take and golf and and really happy with the round how much fun was 12 first of all the second shot you hit over that par tree and then of course the eagle chip to take us those
Two shots in particular sure um yeah 12 is a funky one cuz we played it into the wind in the practice round and you obviously can’t get there for two so today was downwind smash Freewood and just a beautiful little pitch you know it’s something I’ve been working really
Hard on and to see that go in it feels good and how about uh what was your read on that Chip Shot uh probably pretty pretty straight to be honest you know there was a bit of a knob I had to go over and then the pins on on a different
One so I tried to fly right in between them and and it rolled straight in so yeah best of luck tomorrow thank you cheers first of all happy birthday for yesterday thank you H why do you like so Mexico so much that you have have some great success and talk about your Eagles
Two Eagles you had today yeah two Eagles is pretty rare right it doesn’t happen that often so um if you can do that you can kind of capitalize in the rest of the round you’re going to have eight under like I did today so that was obviously nice
And I don’t know what it is about Mexico uh the food is amazing this Resort especially it’s pretty laidback we’ve got great facilities here beautiful hotel so it’s just quite a relaxing place and then you’ve got a good golf course to boot so it’s always just sort of Good
Vibes any bees today in the round a I saw that coming up uh no Bees today thankfully hopefully it stays that way good perfect thank you cheers thank you yeah
