Transcript

00:00 I was excited each and every day to kind of get through it and start piecing rounds together

00:05 again.

00:06 I haven't done this in a long time so it was fun to feel that again.

00:09 I think the best part of the week is the way I drove it.

00:17 I drove it on pretty much a string all week.

00:20 Granted these turns are big and so still missed but I felt like I had my ball speed up which

00:28 was nice and I was hitting the ball out of the middle of the face the entire week which

00:33 is nice.

00:34 It's not like I have to go and try to find something in the next few weeks or something

00:39 going into next year.

00:42 What I've been working on is right there and maybe just tighten up a little bit.

00:45 I think that I can get into the rhythm of it.

00:48 I think that having a couple weeks off to recover, a week to build up, there's no reason

00:53 why I can't get into that rhythm.

00:57 It's just a matter of getting in better shape basically.

01:02 I feel like my game is not that far off but I need to get in better shape.

01:06 I don't have the bone pain that I did but I still have to go to the same protocols.

01:12 It takes a long time.

01:13 That's the unfortunate thing about aging and trying to do something that's either worn

01:20 out my body or trying to keep up with younger people.

01:27 It takes a long time pre and post.

01:29 You spend more time in the treatment room and weight room than you do on a golf course.

01:35 That's just part of wanting to hang around as an athlete.

01:39 I'm ecstatic how the week turned out.

01:41 Not just for me playing but I think from organizationally of the event and how everything has been run.

01:49 Just the whole week has been very smooth and I think that everyone here has enjoyed it.
