Harris English speaks with the media after yet another runner up finish at a major championship. His runner up at The Open Championship at Royal Portrush practically locks him up for a spot on the US Ryder Cup Team.
you semi just learn how to block it out as much as you can and focus on seeing your shot and and hitting your shot. And I feel like I did a really good job of locking in and and zoning in. And um even though winning today was probably not attainable unless I shot nine under. Um I feel like I needed a really good round and wanted to play well in the open championship and give myself a run. Um I think my best finish was 14th in this tournament coming into this year. So, I I I knew I could play better than that and and wanted wanted to play better than that. So, it was it was uh awesome to finish like that. I mean, losing to Scotty twice and and two majors was the only guy to beat me at the PGA and and this week. Um playing some good golf. Just just need to clean it up a little bit. But um one of my so my two goals this year were make it the tour championship and make that RDER Cup team and and hopefully I’ve moved myself a little closer to that and hopefully I can get in that top six to um lock up a spot. I wasn’t playing professional golf when Tiger would was at his peak um early 2000s, mid 2000s, but it’s pretty incredible. Um just how good of a front runner he is. I mean, he’s improved his putting. I mean, there there’s no stat that he’s bad in. I mean, it’s like, how do you beat this guy? Um, but it’s he he works so hard and see him in the gym all the time, see him practicing, I mean, he’s one of the hardest workers I’ve ever seen and to have number one in the world working that hard just makes it that much harder to catch him. Um, so what he’s doing right now is incredible.
