    Interview Transcript: Tom Watson

    INTERVIEW TRANSCRIPT: TOM WATSON Wednesday, June 22, 2011 MODERATOR: I'd like to welcome Tom Watson to the Dick's Sporting Goods Open, his first visit back to En-Joie since 1976. Tom, coming off of a big win about a month ago at the Senior PGA Championship, maybe just get us started, talk about that, and then where your game is right now. TOM WATSON: Well, thanks. My game is actually in pretty good shape right now. I played in a tournament that I started in Kansas City five years ago called the Watson Challenge, trying to determine the best player we can in the city. It's only for the Kansas City golfers, the amateurs and the pros. We had the tournament there and I ended up winning that tournament and still kept the challenge alive. Why can't anybody beat a 61-year old, broken-down pro? I actually played pretty well, drove the ball well there, that's -- I'm playing pretty well right now. On this golf course, you have to drive the ball well, and if you don't drive the ball well, you're going to get into the rough and you're going to be -- make a lot of bogeys on this kind of course. It's in excellent shape. I'm probably at somewhat of a disadvantage because I haven't played this course, I don't remember it, since 1976 and a lot of the players who have played it the last four years on our Tour, so I hope to get to know it a little bit better and I have a chance at the end of Sunday to have a chance to win.

    PRE-TOURNAMENT INTERVIEW June 27, 2018 RICKIE FOWLER MARK WILLIAMS: We would like to welcome Rickie Fowler to the 2018 Quicken Loans National interview room. Rickie, thanks for joining us. You're making your seventh start here at this tournament. You're the highest ranked player in the FedExCup standings and the highest ranked player in the official World Golf rankings in the field. Last year you finished a couple shots out of the lead, shot a final round 65 with five birdies. Looking forward to this tournament, coming back and trying to get maybe a little revenge and getting into that final spot there? RICKIE FOWLER: Yeah, definitely glad to be back. Obviously I have a great partnership with Quicken Loans and it's been fun to grow that over the years and be a part of this tournament. I was excited when we came here last year, this place had a great setup. Kind of bummed that it's a little soft, I know they've had a lot of rain last week leading into this week. If we can dodge some of that rain today and the course will dry out and hopefully get to where it was last year because it had, you know, in a way a little bit of a major championship feel with how firm and fast the course got, thick rough and greens were firm and fast. It definitely picked you apart as a player if you didn't hit fairways and control your golf ball. I feel like this golf course is a great test and played well here last year.
