Drama between Jordan Spieth and Patrick Reed, Rory McIlroy says Hosung Choi might not deserve a spot in a PGA Tour event and Tiger Woods gets denied a slice of pizza.
“I’ve always told the Tour and people around me, I’m never one that wants to break rules by any means. But I’m up for pushing the limits. Anything within reason, within being respectful of the game. And I feel like for the most part, people that go play a local muni, this is perfectly acceptable attire. I’m glad we went out and played well in it.” - Rickie Fowler said about his Puma Golf “Play Loose” shirt he wore in the second round of the Farmers Insurance Open.
“I just couldn’t trust what I needed to do and felt a little bit lost with the swing.” – Billy Horschel after his second round at Torrey Pines.
“I’ve got to play a little better than I have.” -Tiger Woods said about his play at the Farmers Insurance Open.
“Jordan and I are still really good friends.” - Patrick Reed after the two were paired together in Round 3 of the Farmers Insurance Open following drama at Ryder Cup.
“I’m just not 100 percent with my golf game right now.” - Bryson DeChambeau after he was leading following the third round of the Omega Dubai Desert Classic. He went on to win the event by seven shots.
“Whether that means he should be taking a spot away from a PGA Tour player at a PGA Tour event, I’m not so sure.” - Rory McIlroy said about Hosung Choi.
“We were looking for anything, we were starving. [Caddie Joey LaCava] didn’t put any sandwiches in the bag, didn’t have any bars, so we were all hungry.” - Tiger Woods after being denied a slice of pizza at the Farmers Insurance Open.
“Justin turned to me and goes, ‘Your ball’s up there.’ I was like, ‘Oh, man, I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to almost kill you.’ I turn around and I’m like, ‘I might have just got rid of the best competition out there.’” – Doug Ghim after he nearly hit Justin Rose with his golf ball during Monday’s Farmers Insurance Open pro-am.
“Just to finish the event and kind of get just one golf tournament under my belt was really probably the happiest I’ve been through all of this.” - Bud Cauley about his recovery from a horrific car accident during last year’s Memorial.
“I’m just not going to fight myself on the course. It started out really good, and then all of a sudden it wasn’t looking as good for a couple putts. And I just said, ‘I can’t be bothered having to fight out there for the next nine holes. I’ll just claw it.’” - Adam Scott on switching from arm lock to claw grip mid-round at the Farmers Insurance Open.
“The back nine at Torrey Pines is no joke. The fact that I shot 6 under a couple years ago, it was a borderline miracle.” -Jon Rahm about his 2017 Farmers Insurance Open win at Torrey Pines.
