Following his game he mentioned “he owes a lot to his caddy and this year they have set goals to follow and they are sticking to them”.

He continued “prior to the tap-in on 16 he asked Scott McCarron what to do following his put as he has never been in this position before. He’s the lone Canadian and while it feels good, he doesn’t really think he has more pressure on him”. He was asked “what he plans’s on doing tonight to prepare for tomorrow’s big day”. He said “I’m going to visit my Family and my Girlfriend and just hang-out”.
