NOW INSIDE OF THE PRESS CENTER. >> PLEASE JOIN ME IN WELCOMING CHAMPION AT THE 125th U.S. OPEN. J.J. SPAUN. J.J. SPAUN, IT’S AN UNBELIEVABLE DAY. ONE THAT YOU WILL NEVER FORGET. WHERE DID THE CONTINUE BELIEF COME FROM? >> OF L.A., AS BAD AS THINGS WERE GOING, I STILL TRY TO COMMIT TO EVERY SHOT. I TRY TO CONTINUE TO DO. I HAVE BEEN DOING IN MY HOLE LIFE. I THINK THAT’S BEEN THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE THIS YEAR, IS BEING ABLE TO DO THAT. UNFORTUNATELY, I DUG VERY DEEP ON THE BACK NINE. THINGS WENT MY WAY AND HERE WE ARE WITH THE TROPHY. >> NO ONE CAN EVER TAKE THAT AWAY FROM YOU. WHERE DID THIS DREAM START? HOW DO YOU PUT THIS MOMENT TOWARDS? >> WATCH GOLF. I WAS YOUNG KID. WANTED TO PLAY GOLF. I LOVE GOLF. IT WAS A PASSION FOR ME GROWING UP. I WAS PLAYED WITH MY PARENTS GROWING UP. ONE THING LED TO ANOTHER. I WAS REALLY GROOMED TO BE A PROFESSIONAL GOLFER. I PLAYED LOCAL STUFF. I DID QUALIFY FOR MY BIG EVENT. I DID THAT TWO TIMES OUT OF 16 OR 17. THAT’S KIND OF WHAT I REALIZED MY POTENTIAL. I JUST KEPT GOING, ONE FOOT IN FRONT OF THE OTHER. JR. GOLF, COLLEGE GOLF, TURNING PRO. NOW HERE I AM WITH THE U.S. OPEN TROPHY. >> WE ARE GOING TO OPEN IT UP TO QUESTIONS. >> GRADUATIONS. I’M WONDERING, DURING THE DELAY , AS YOU WERE WALKING BACK OUT, I HEARD YOUR POST SAY SOMETHING LIKE, TRYING TOO HARD. WHAT WAS THAT MINDSET THAT YOU WENT BACK OUT TO PLAY WITH? >> WHICH ONE OF MY COACHES? WAS ON THE PUTTING GREEN? >> IT WAS OUT OF THE RANGE POINT >> ON THE RANGE? IT WAS KIND OF A THEME THROUGHOUT THE DAY WAS GOING. JUST CHILL. IF YOU ARE GIVEN FOR SHOTS BACK GOING INTO THE BACK NINE ON MONDAY HE WOULD TAKE THAT. JUST LET IT COME TO YOU AND BE CALM. YOU KNOW, JUST STOP TRYING SO HARD. THAT’S WHAT I WAS DOING. I FELT LIKE I HAD A REALLY GOOD CHANCE TO WIN THE U.S. OPEN AT THE START OF THE DAY. IT JUST UNRAVELED VERY FAST. THAT BREAK WAS ACTUALLY THE KEY FOR ME FOR WINNING THE TOURNAMENT. >> J.J., GRADUATIONS. HOW MUCH OF A RE-DID YOU GET FROM VIKTOR ? AND IF THAT WENT AND DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU WOULD BE CHAMPING? >> I DID LOOK AT THE SCOREBOARD. I KNEW, BASED OFF OF WHAT THE CROWD WAS SAYING, THAT I FELT LIKE IF I TO POTTED I WOULD PROBABLY WIN. I DIDN’T WANT TO PLAY DEFENSIVE. I DIDN’T WANT TO DO ANYTHING DUMB LIKE PROTECT THE THREE PUTT OR SOMETHING. VIKTOR HELPED ME A LOT. A FOOT LEFT OF MY LINE. IT’S PRETTY IRONIC , MY FIRST PGA TOUR WIN, ALMOST THE SAME THING HAPPENED AT THE VALERO. IN A BUNKER ON THE LAST HOLE. WE WERE IN THE SAME GROUP. BACK LEFT BUNKER. I HAVE MY THIRD SHOT. SAME THING. DOWN TO THE HOLE. PROBABLY A 40 FOOTER. THIS IS THE SAME THING HAPPENED. VIKTOR, WE GOT A GOOD LINE, GOOD READ . I KIND OF KNEW THE LINE ALREADY. HE IS A PRETTY GOOD WHACK AND IT STARTED RAINING IN THE LAST 10 OR 15 MINUTES. I JUST TRIED TO PICK MY LINE AND PUT A GOOD STROKE ON IT. ABOUT EIGHT FEET I KIND OF WENT UP TO THE HIGH SIDE TO SEE IF IT HAD A CHANCE OF GOING IN. I WAS JUST IN SHOCK, DISBELIEF THAT IT WENT IN. AND IT WAS OVER. YEAH, HERE WE ARE. >> YOU TALK TO YOUR CALL IS HERE . ONE OF THOSE LESSONS THAT YOU DREW THAT REALLY HELPED TO BRING ACROSS THE FINISH LINE TODAY? >> IF YOU KEEP PUTTING YOURSELF IN THESE POSITIONS EVENTUALLY YOU WILL HIT ONE OFF. I DON’T PUT MYSELF IN THIS POSITION OFTEN OR AT ALL FOR A MAJOR. THAT’S FOR SURE. THIS IS ONLY MY SECOND U.S. OPEN. ALL THE CLOSE CALLS I’VE HAD ON THE PGA TOUR THIS YEAR, THIS IS BEEN A REALLY GOOD EXPERIENCE. NEVER GIVE UP. I WAS HAVING LUNCH WITH MAX AT HOME. HE WAS IN THE SAME AREA. BLOCKS OF THE SAME CLUB. HE WAS TELLING A TIGER STORY. AS LONG AS YOU’RE STILL THERE. YOU’LL HAVE TO DO ANYTHING CRAZY. ESPECIALLY AT U.S. OPEN. TIGER SAID THIS WOULD HAPPEN. THE WIND WILL SWITCH BUT YOU’VE GOT TO JUST STAY THERE. EVEN IF YOUR FOUR BACK. YOU’VE JUST GOT TO STAY THERE. DON’T DO ANYTHING CRAZY. I WAS KIND OF THINKING ABOUT THAT OUT THERE THIS AFTERNOON. I WAS FOUR BACK MAYBE. GOING BACK OUT AFTER THE DELAY. I MADE SOME GOOD PARS. NOTHING CRAZY. GOT A REALLY GOOD PRETTY. NEXT YOU KNOW I’M TIED FOR THE LEAD I THINK. WITHIN FOUR HOLES OF THE RESTART. THAT JUST KIND OF GOES BACK TO THAT. JUST TRY TO STAY THERE. YOU HAVE TO DO ANYTHING CRAZY. ESPECIALLY AT THE U.S. OPEN. ALL THOSE THINGS CAME TRUE. >> WE ARE GOING TO FRONT LEFT. >> CONGRATULATIONS. I JUST WANT TO KNOW, WHAT WAS THAT WOULD LIKE WHEN YOU SAW YOUR DOLLARS ON THE 18th GREEN WITH YOU? NOT ONLY TODAY BUT THIS WEEK. >> IT WAS A VERY TOUCHING MOMENT TO SEE MY GIRLS THERE. MY OLDEST DAUGHTER, SHE WAS AT THE VALERO. ABOUT THE SAME AGE AS MY YOUNGEST DAUGHTER NOW. IT WAS SO COOL TO JUST HAVE MY HOLE FAMILY THERE ON FATHER’S DAY. IT’S JUST INCREDIBLE. I HAVE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE THE MOMENT AND THEN BEING ABLE DESCRIBE THE MOMENT AND THEN BEING ABLE TO SEE ME AS THE WINNER. MY DAUGHTER ALWAYS ASKS ME, EVERY TIME DAD GOES GOLFING, WERE YOU THE WINNER TODAY? SOMETIMES I AM LIKE YEAH, I WAS AND THEN SHE IS LIKE WHERE IS MY SURPRISE. TODAY SHE WAS LIKE, YOU ARE THE WINNER TODAY. SHE DID NOT HAVE TO ASK ME. IT WAS A REALLY FUN MOMENT. THE LEFT. >> OH, BACK LEFT. >> YEAH, WE FIRST HAD GUYS LIKE LOWRY AND SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER TALKING ABOUT THE MORNING THEY WON BEFORE THEY WON THEIR FIRST MAJOR LOOKING IN THE MIRROR SAYING DO I HAVE WHAT IT TAKES? AND TELLING THEMSELVES I DO HAVE WHAT IT TAKES, DID YOU HAVE A MOMENT LIKE THAT THIS WEEK OR AT ANY POINT? >> TODAY I WAS RUNNING TO CVS BECAUSE MY DAUGHTER WAS VOMITING ALL NIGHT LONG. MY WIFE WAS UP AT 3:00 A.M. AND SHE IS LIKE VIOLET IS VOMITING, CAN NOT KEEP ANYTHING DOWN. IT WAS A ROUGH START TO THE MORNING. I AM NOT BLAMING THAT ON MY START BUT IT WAS LIKE IT FIT THE MOLD OF WHAT WAS GOING ON, THE CHAOS, BUT I DON’T THINK I HAD, I DID NOT REALLY — WHEN I GO BACK HOME AFTER THE ROUND, YOU KNOW, MY KIDS ARE THERE AND IT IS SUCH A BIG DISTRACTION, NOT DWELLING ON ANYTHING OR THINK TOO MUCH. IT IS A GOOD THING. LIKE THE PLAYERS WAS TOUGH. YOU KNOW, I WAS ALONE THAT WEEK AND JUST SITTING THERE AND AT NIGHT IN MY HOTEL ROOM TRYING NOT TO GO ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND TWITTER AND X, NICE TO HAVE THE KIDS TO BE AROUND AND TO BE A DAD AND IT GETS YOUR MIND OFF OF THE GOLF AND GETS YOU IN A CALM, COOL, COLLECTED MIND SET >> SECOND IN THE ROW, NICK? >> YOU SAID ON MONDAY YOU WERE GOING TO START LETTING GOLF BE GOLF. GOLF WAS A THING MORE IMPORTANT WAS GOING HOME TO MELODY, TO YOUR DAUGHTERS, HOW MUCH DOES THAT PLAY A PART IN WHAT HAPPENED OUT THERE TODAY? >> I THINK WHEN YOU PUT EXPECTATION, THE PRESSURE, YOU DON’T WANT THAT EXTRA PRESSURE. YOU CAN DO THAT EASILY BY LETTING YOUR MIND WONDER AND WHAT IF THIS. IF I DO THIS, WHAT HAPPENS. I USED TO DO THAT ALL OF THE TIME. IF I WIN I CAN GET IN THE MASTER’S, IF I DO THIS, I CAN LOCK MY CARD UP FOR TWO YEARS AND BLAH, BLAH, BLAH. I STARTED SAYING MY CAREER IS MY CAREER. WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS. IT TOOK A LOT OF PRESSURE OFF OF MY BACK AS FAR AS EXPECTATIONS ON THE GOLF COURSE AND, YOU KNOW, LAST YEAR, LAST YEAR IN JUNE I WAS LIKE LOOKING LIKE I WAS GOING TO LOSE MY JOB. AND KIND OF THAT IS WHEN I HAD THAT MOMENT WHERE, YOU KNOW, THERE IS HOW I GO OUT I WILL GO DOWNSWING. HOW MY COACH TELLS ME ABOUT MY GOLF SHOTS OR MY GOLF SWING ON THE COURSE. CHALLENGING SHOT. AT LEAST YOU GO DOWN COMMITTING TO A SHOT. DON’T BAIL ONE OUT RIGHT BECAUSE YOU FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE. JUST GO DOWNSWING. YOU MIGHT AS WELL PUT THE SWING ON IF IT DOES NOT WORK OUT, IT DOES NOT WORK OUT. THAT IS THE MANTRA I HAVE HAD ALL YEAR. >> OUT ON THURSDAY, WE TALKED ABOUT HOW YOU ADMIRED KOBE BRYANT, IS THAT YOUR KOBE BRYANT MOMENT? >> THAT WAS UNBELIEVABLE. THAT WAS MORE LIKE THE SHOT WITH .2 SECONDS LEFT. YEAH. I WAS, I COULD NOT BELIEVE WHAT I WITNESSED WHEN THAT WENT IN. NICK TAYLOR MOMENT BUT FOR THE U.S. OPEN. >> J.J., HOW DIFFERENT WAS THE GOLF COURSE WHEN YOU CAME BACK OUT AND HOW DID YOU TRY TO APPROACH THOSE DIFFERENT CONDITIONS? >> IT WAS SUPER WET. IT WAS SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY. THE GREENS SLOWED DOWN QUITE A BIT. BUT I KNEW, YOU KNOW, WITH MY IRON GAME AS LONG AS I GOT ON THE FAIRWAY I COULD ATTACK BECAUSE OF HOW SOFT IT GOT. IT WAS ALREADY PRETTY SOFT. SO, THAT IS KIND OF, I RELIED ON THE EXPERIENCE YESTERDAY. IT WAS A LITTLE SLOWER, THE GREENS WERE A LOT SOFTER. AND I JUST TRIED TO TAKE WHAT THE COURSE GAVE ME. >> ON THE FRONT? >> J.J., YOU HAD THE CLOSE CALL WITH THE PLAYERS. THIS WAS PRETTY MUCH FOUR DAYS WHERE YOU WERE NOT SNEAKING UP ON ANYBODY. CHIP TODAY ON THE FIRST HOLE. YOU WERE N THE SPOTLIGHT RIGHT FROM THE START. HOW DID YOU FIND THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE THIS WHOLE WEEK? NO SNEAKING UP THERE. YOU HAD TO MANAGE IT >> NO FAKING IT, NO HIDING SINCE THURSDAY. I THINK THAT IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO, YOU KNOW, OVERCOME. I AM NOT TRYING TO SHY AWAY FROM THE MOMENT. LIKE I JUST TELL MYSELF IF I CAN DO THIS LIKE WHEN THERE IS NO PRESSURE OR NO LEADS WHY CAN’T I DO IT WHEN THERE IS? , YOU KNOW, SO, IT IS JUST TRYING TO GET OVER THAT LINE OF HANDLING THE NERVES AND HANDLING THE PRESSURE. I REALLY SHOWED MYSELF A LOT TODAY ON THAT BACK NINE. >> ON THE LEFT, MICHAEL. >> J.J., SPECTACULAR SECOND SHOT ON THE NUMBER 2. YOUR REACTION TO ME WAS EVEN MORE SPECTACULAR. WONDERING IF YOU CAN TALK US THROUGH THAT? >> YEAH, WE HAD 90, I DON’T KNOW, 100 YARDS MAYBE. MAYBE LESS. IT WAS LIKE A PERFECT KIND OF SLIDED CHIP SAND WEDGE. THAT IS WHAT THE SHOT CALLED FOR. LEANED STRAIGHT INTO IT. AND I HIT IT PERFECT. IT WAS RIGHT AT IT. ALL I HEARD IS A REALLY LOUD LIKE AH. AND IT WAS NOT LIKE A GOOD ONE. I WAS LIKE WHAT THE HECK. I DID NOT EVEN THINK IT WOULD HIT. WHEN I SAW IT COMING OFF OF THE GREEN WITH THAT MUCH SPEED I WAS LIKE THAT HAD TO BE IT. I WAS WALKING UP THERE, A FOOT SHORT OF IT. DURING THE DELAY I WENT AND WATCHED IT. REALLY UNLUCKY. IT WAS PRETTY MUCH A TWO-SHOT SWING. I WAS THINKING THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN PRETTY CLOSE WITH MAYBE INSIDE OF FIVE FEET IF IT DID NOT HIT THE FLAG. YEAH. THAT WAS, IT WAS NOT, NOT A GOOD START TO THE DAY. >> MOST GUYS STOMP A LITTLE BIT. ALL YOU DID IS ONE OF THESE . >> YEAH. IT IS, THE U.S. OPEN. I LIKE TO COMPLAIN, YOU KNOW, NORMALLY ON THE GOLF COURSE. I AM JUST, I AM AT THE POINT WHERE I FEEL I GET A LOT OF BAD BREAKS AND I AM USED TO IT. SO MANY PEOPLE AROUND THAT I COULD NOT LET MY ATTITUDE OR ANY FRUSTRATION GET TO ME. >> BACK RIGHT, JAY. >> YOU DON’T USUALLY GET 90 MINUTES IN THE MIDDLE OF A TENSE ROUND TO COLLECT YOUR THOUGHTS. HOW DID YOU MAINTAIN YOUR FOCUS AND NOT OBSESSING SHOTS LIKE THE FLAG SHOT AND THAT SORT OF THING? >> I THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD THING HAVING THE DELAY. IT HAPPENED TO ME AT THE PLAYERS. STRUGGLING ON THE FRONT NINE. I HAD TO LEAVE ON SUNDAY. WE HAD A FOUR HOUR DELAY, I THINK. AND, YOU KNOW, I ENDED UP TURNING THAT ROUND INTO A NICE FIGHT WHERE I GOT MYSELF INTO THE PLAYOFFS. SO, ALL I WAS THINKING, MY TEAM, MY COACH, MY CADDY. OH, THIS IS, THERE IS EXACTLY WHAT WE NEED. AND IT WAS. WE WENT BACK OUT AND CAPITALIZED ON IT. I CHANGED MY OUTFIT. I AM DONE WEARING THOSE CLOTHES. I JUST NEEDED TO RESET EVERYTHING, START THE ROUTINE OVER. >> ON THE LEFT, RYAN? >> THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS WHAT TOOLS HAS JOSH GREGORY GIVEN YOU THAT YOU DID NOT HAVE BEFORE? >> THE ABILITY TO READ LIES IN THE ROUGH. AND HOW TO CHIP THEM WITH CONSISTENT CONTACT WHERE YOU CAN PREDICT LIKE HOW FAR THE BALL IS GOING TO COME OUT. OR HOW DEAD IT IS GOING TO COME OUT. OR HOW MUCH EFFORT YOU NEED TO PUT IN THE SWING TO GET THE BALL TO WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE. DEFINITELY MECHANICS. MORE OF LIKE, UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT, WHAT LIES KIND OF DICTATE HOW THE BALL COMES OUT. SO, IT HAS BEEN GOOD, OBVIOUSLY. >> WHAT IS FUNNY THE FIRST HOLE OF THE TOURNAMENT. WE WORKED MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY, I AM DEAD SHORT SIDED ON 10 IN THE ROUGH, PROBABLY, NOT FAR FROM THE PIN BUT IT WAS DEAD ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE GREEN. AND, IT WAS ONE OF THOSE LIES WHERE WE TRIED, I WILL NOT TELL THE SECRET BUT, WE TRIED TO DO THE SECRET. AND — [ LAUGHTER ] >> AND I CHIP TODAY IN. AND MY CADDY GOES NICE SHOT, JOSH. BUT, YEAH. IT WAS NICE TO SEE THAT COME THROUGH SO QUICKLY. >> WE WILL DO A FEW MORE. BACK RIGHT, RYAN? >> AFTER THE RESTART, WHETHER YOU CAME BACK OUT, WAS THERE A PARTICULAR MOMENT ON THE GOLF COURSE THAT YOU REALIZED YOU HAVE RESET YOURSELF AND YOU WERE READY TO GO AND GOING TO BE IN THE HUNT? >> THE TEE SHOT ON 9. MY FIRST SHOT BACK. THAT WAS THE HOLE WE GOT STOPPED ON AND, I JUST FLUSHED ONE LIKE A CUT UP THE LEFT SIDE AND I WAS LIKE, ALL RIGHT, WE ARE BACK. AND I MEAN, I DID NOT HIT MANY BAD SHOTS AFTER THAT. >> ON THE LEFT HERE IN THE CENTER. >> J.J. YOU TOUCHED ON THIS A LITTLE BIT. YOU TALKED ABOUT WHERE YOU WERE THIS POINT LAST YEAR, CAN YOU REFLECT ON THE KIND OF WORK YOU PUT IN AND GET THE TOP FIVE THAT YOU GOT EARLIER THIS YEAR TO NOW, TO WHERE YOU ARE NOW? >> YEAH, I MEAN IT IS PERSEVERANCE, YOU KNOW. I ALWAYS KIND OF BATTLED THROUGH WHATEVER IT MAY BE TO KIND OF GET TO WHERE I NEEDED TO BE AND GET TO WHAT I WANTED. I HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE. I HAD SLUMPS, YOU KNOW, AT EVERY LEVEL. I ALWAYS KIND OF, I WENT BACK. YOU HAVE DONE THIS BEFORE, DOWN BEFORE, YOU GOT OUT OF IT. AND THERE IS A PATTERN. HOPEFULLY I DON’T, YOU KNOW, DON’T DO THAT PATTERN AGAIN. IT WAS A PRETTY ALL-TIME HIGH FOR ME. >> A FEW MORE, SHANE? >> THERE WAS A MOMENT WHEN ROBERT MacINTYRE, SAM WAS MAKING BOGEYS, I THINK YOU EVEN MADE BOGEY. SO, AGAIN, IT LOOKED LIKE ALL OF THE MOMENTUM WAS HIM. THE WAY IT TURNED AROUND ON 17 AND 18 FROM THE DISTANCE FROM THE STORY TELLER STANDPOINT, THERE WAS SOMETHING ROMANTIC ABOUT IT. APPROACH, NOW, MY LONG-WINDED QUESTION IS, IS THERE A SPIRITUAL ELEMENT, ROMANTIC ELEMENT THAT YOU LOOK AT, MAYBE NOT IN THOSE MOMENTS BECAUSE IT WAS SO SOON BUT IN GOLF IN GENERAL? DO YOU GET THAT EXTRA FEELING? >> YEAH. IT IS DEFINITELY, LIKE A STORY BOOK FAIRY TALE ENDING, KIND OF THE UNDERDOG, YOU KNOW, FIGHTING BACK. YOU KNOW, NOT GIVING UP, NEVER QUITTING. YOU KNOW, WITH THE RAIN AND EVERIING AND THEN THE PUTT, I MEAN IT IS, YOU COULD NOT WRITE A BETTER STORY. AND, I AM JUST SO FORTUNATE TO BE ON THE RECEIVING END OF THAT. >> ON THE LEFT. >> YOU TALKED ABOUT JOSH EARLIER. YOU KNOW, ADAM AND YOU LINKED UP A FEW YEARS BACK AND GIVEN YOU TALKS OVER THE YEARS. CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THE TALK YOU HAD ON THURSDAY AND HOW THAT KIND OF GOT YOUR MIND RIGHT BEFORE YOU WENT OUT AND ULTIMATELY WON THIS THING? >> YEAH, HE LOVES TO TALK ABOUT LOU, HOW HE WAS KIND OF — KIND OF TELL ADAM ABOUT HIS STORIES TO GET HIS TEAM PUMPED UP, YOU KNOW. I CAN NOT PHRASE IT HOW HE DOES IT. I AM NOT EVERYONE GOING TO TRY TO SAY IT. BUT HE HAS BEEN DOING THAT A LOT RECENTLY TO GET MY ATTITUDE AND MIND SET RIGHT. AND I THINK THAT IS KIND OF ONE OF THE MISSING THINGS THAT I, YOU KNOW, BEEN LACKING OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS OR SO. AND IT IS NICE TO KIND OF FEEL, FEEL CONFIDENT IN WHAT I AM DOING BUT ALSO HAVE, YOU KNOW, THE MENTAL SIDE TO IT AS WELL. >> AND THEN THE FOLLOW UP ON THAT, I SEE YOU CARRYING YOUR DAUGHTER UP THE STEPS AFTER MAKING THAT PUTT, ARE YOU THE LUCKIEST GUY IN THE WORLD AFTER WHAT HAPPENED THESE LAST FOUR DAYS? >> 100%. AT LEAST IN MY MIND. JUST TO FINISH IT OFF LIKE THAT THIS IS A DREAM. YOU WATCH OTHER PEOPLE DO IT. AND THE TIGER CHIP. YOU SEE NICK TAYLOR’S PUTT, YOU SEE CRAZY MOMENTS. AND, TO HAVE MY OWN MOMENT LIKE THAT. IN
