00:05probably since he shot, I think he shot 61 here as a kid, didn't he? So, I mean, I mean, the legend

00:11around him in these parts has been growing for a long, long time. So, obviously, he's going to be

00:15incredibly well supported this week, and I feel like probably he's in a good mindset, I'd imagine.

00:21Obviously, I think I've had a bit of a come down off the back of the Masters. I feel like I'm

00:24coming back around to having a bit more energy and focus again. I can see maybe the same for him,
