Dustin you had an incredible day you’re currently sitting at 11 under tied with Brayson for the lead tell us a little bit about your day um yeah obviously it was a good day but just really solid you know drove it really well had a lot of
Had a lot of nice iron shots gave myself a lot of looks of Birdie um a couple times I got out of position I was able to you know make a nice up and down and you know which was you know made a really nice up and down on part three on
The back but other than that it was you know had a lot of really good looks of so I know this was your first experience playing this course we talked to you earlier in the week what do you make of it now that you’ve had two rounds out
Here and you’re currently in the lead um I mean yeah I like the golf course it’s you know it’s one of obviously it’s old school it’s you know narrow you got to you got to drive it well um you know but coming after coming off of last week it
Doesn’t seem that narrow so um I think last week was good prep for this week cuz you you know it’s obviously really important just to hit in the Fairway if you hit in the Fairway you’re going to have a lot of nice looks of bird especially if you’re controlling the
Golf ball so you shot uh let’s see uh eight eight under today right yeah eight under today so did you think coming out here that that was a number that was getable for you yeah I mean the course is you know obviously the greens are kind of the defense there’s some slopes
And a lot of sections but if you’re controlling the golf ball you know you get a lot of short irons in your hand if you’re driving it straight so um yeah I mean I had a you know kept it between the trees pretty well the first two days
And gave myself a lot of nice looks of Birdie so that’s yeah I mean it’s definitely doable so the four aces are currently tied for first place as well uh what is your strategy with the team tonight I know your boys are playing well but all four scores count tomorrow
Yeah I mean just all the guys I mean everybody’s playing pretty well so we just all AFF need to play well tomorrow if we want a chance to win awesome I’m going to kick it over to Mike DJ obviously you and Bryson will be in the uh final group I’m not sure who’s
Going to be a third yet could be Rah uh is that what what kind of live is about is having those big names on a final day in a final group yeah I mean that’s I think any golf tournament it doesn’t matter but yeah live obviously there’s a
There’s a lot of really good players that are that are a part of Live And you know I think each week you see the best players are always at the you know in the last groups te off on Sunday or Saturday I guess tomorrow but and uh just to having length here on
A 7100 yard course how does that give you an advantage are you able to just basically blast it over the trouble no I mean not necessarily it’s more you know length you still got to drive it straight I mean it’s just you know that’s obviously the guys playing well are the ones
They’re hitting it straight and keeping it between the trees but yeah I mean obviously Link’s always an advantage especially if you’re hitting it straight and just talk about your uh back nine you had I think you shot 30 on the back yeah I mean I just you know hit
A lot of nice shots obviously made a really good uh two on on 16 and then you know hit a really nice shot in there on 17 to a couple feet you know to finish the day off but um yeah just gave like I said you know I feel like I’m swinging
Well if I can get in the Fairway you know I feel like I can hit it close to the hole Brian hbert Las Vegas golf insider.com golf is one thing but the other day he said you hadn’t made a prediction yet or a pick on the Super
Bowl have you made up your mind yet uh what is it I I mean I think both teams are are really obviously very good they’re both playing really well if they’re playing in the Super Bowl but you know I think it’s going to be a really good game and
Yeah I’m not real sure who I’m Who I’m going with yet and just talk about the balance between the team and the individual how much pressure is the team does it feel different what’s it feel like no I mean you know you still got to
Go out and just you know play golf so you know obviously you know sometimes when the if the team’s playing well it can kind of you know push you to kind of you know do a little bit better if you’re struggling but um you know everybody needs to go out and just play
Well play their game and you know try to shoot a good score TJ good luck tomorrow
