Tony F now two under 68 uh Tony can you start off with uh some comments about how your round went today yeah I thought I played pretty solid all day I kept it in the Fairway for most of the day and it’s a golf course uh from the you know you can play from the fway so I was really happy with the way I drove it um and I think my score just kind of reflected how how I drove the golf I was able to hit greens and just make a couple putts was it as gnarl as expected from around the greens yeah you know I think I I don’t know exactly how many greens I missed uh I didn’t get up and down on number two um after a good shot but it’s definitely getting there it’s not as firm yet as I think that it you know it’s going to be on the weekend but uh there were definitely some dicey pins already um today but as expected there’s there’s going to be dicey pins all week how do the course changed compared to Monday yeah it’s a slightly fmer you know I wouldn’t say um it’s crazy firmer but it definitely is is firmer and faster so I expect that to continue as as the days go on and how much were you able to hit driver today yeah I hit driver quite a bit um I don’t know exactly how many but I didn’t hit any three Woods I was either hitting a three or four iron or I was sending drivers so um yeah I thought uh I thought playing a little bit more aggressive on a day like today where was a little bit more getable was was a good game plan what was the best shot from today shot you’re most proud of oo well the best shot actually didn’t end up in a good spot but I I flushed draw five iron on number six which was my whatever 14th or 15th hole I think it grazed the hole and end up going over the green I made par and then uh 15 I think uh my ball just kind of grazed the left Edge I made par there as well but those are definitely the two best shots I hit today do you think the width of the fairways is an asset for you this week yeah I think uh you know I I’m I’m driving it well you know I drove it well today again this a golf course you have to hit in the Fairway just to give yourself a chance that doesn’t mean that you’re going to hit the green but you’re going to have a lot higher chance hitting it from the Fairway than anywhere else so um I I definitely was just happy with the way I drove the golf ball so then I just allowed myself to um allow the golf course I I could be patient hitting from the F where you’re hitting From the Rough all day or I guess you know the bushes or the sand it’s going to be it’s going to be a short week you going to be here for two days so um I was happy again just the way I drove the ball what was the toughest P yourself oo there there are quite a few I mean number one and number two right out of the gate you know number one is the toughest screen on the course so it it doesn’t really matter where they put that you’re going to have you you can have great shots go right off the green number two was pretty dicey I hit a shot I think that ended up maybe four or five Paces right pin high and trickle all the way off the green so obviously I knew that was going to happen but um those are just a couple there’s there’s plenty more I’m sure going to be throughout the week T writing about lovic I mean his first usua open round and yeah I think he hit every every Fairway almost if not but maybe not one but um what do you think of his him out there today yes he’s he’s a stripe shell you know it’s the first time I ever played with him actually never played with him in a prox round or in a tournament round so um we had a great time out there I thought we both Struck it really nicely and um he’s he’s far from a rookie I mean he’s not your your average you know first guy playing in a major championship he’s he’s been on some of the biggest stages already and has shown he’s going to be a world class player so it was it was a joy to watch Tony does getting one in red figures around here change at all the approach going into tomorrow or the rest of the weekend in terms of not being in a position where you feel like you have to chase a number yeah getting off to a good start and ending major championship is important and I think us opens if you can post a red number early uh it’s a golf tournament that I think you said it right on the button I don’t have I don’t feel like I have to do extra and Chase guys down I’m riding position I feel like after after round one which is which is key and if you’re trying to win a major Tony you hadn’t played in in the 2014 US Open here do you remember watching anything about it do you remember what 24 felt like yeah I remember I remember watching a little bit I didn’t I don’t know if I watched a lot of it but I I do remember it looking a lot more brown and yellow so I think uh it hasn’t they haven’t uh let the golf course get to that yet who knows you know what they’re going to do on the weekend but as of right now I just I think it’s a little more green than it was in 14 thanks
