TEXAS THREE-STEP: 's victory in the 2010 Valero Texas Open appearance gave him three PGA TOUR victories in the Lone Star State, joining much esteemed company. At the time, Scott had won the HP Championship in Irving, the Shell in Humble and the Texas Open. In 2014, he won the Colonial Invitational in Fort Worth allowing Scott to stand alone at the top of the Lone Star record books as the only player to win all four Texas PGA TOUR events. The other three-time Texas winners include (San Antonio, Fort Worth, Houston) and (Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio). Only Byron Nelson (Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio) has won Tour events in all four Texas cities, but no player had ever won all four current Texas PGA TOUR events until Scott.

MILITARY MIGHT: San Antonio is the home of several military bases and thousands of retired and active duty military members. The Texas Open is the only PGA TOUR event to have been played on a military installation golf course. The 1960 Texas Open, won by Arnold Palmer, was played on the Fort Sam Houston 18-hole course.

10 2019 Valero Texas Open Media Guide TPC SAN ANTONIO, OAKS COURSE

Oaks Course - Hole #1 - Par 4 - 454 yards - Handicap 7 This is a strong starting hole, playing slightly downhill into the prevailing wind. An accurate tee shot is required to help your round get started on the right note. Aim your drive down the left side of the fairway to give you a better angle into the green. A good drive will leave a long to medium iron for your second shot into a well guarded green. If you miss on your approach, missing right is the best shot into one of the many collection areas found on the course. Left is trouble for all, as a large and cavernous bunker awaits. The front bunker is not nearly as treacherous. The green is moderately undulating, but still putt with caution. A par is a great start to your round.

Oaks Course - Hole #2 - Par 5 - 602 yards - Handicap 9 This is your introduction to the Par 5’s on the Oaks Course. Just as you found on the first hole, #2 is slightly downhill and into the prevailing wind. The bunkers are seemingly in the middle of the fairway, but don’t be afraid. Go ahead and use your driver. The bunker is only in play for the longest of hitters. This is a three shot hole, so accuracy is a premium on your second shot. Use your longest, straightest club with precision to ensure your third stroke will be played from the fairway, avoiding the fairway bunkers. The third shot calls for a short iron played into a well guarded double green. A word of caution. There is an 8,000 square ft. bunker hiding behind the green which awaits any slightly thin approach. Pars on Hole #1 and Hole #2 will find you ahead of the game.

Oaks Course - Hole #3 - Par 3 - 213 yards - Handicap 13 Welcome to the first par 3 on the Oaks Course. This 213 yard beauty is one of only two holes on the course which require carry over water. This hole is not for the faint of heart. A confident swing is required with a medium or long iron to carry the water and reach the green. The only miss for the player on this hole is long. It is a must for players to land their tee shot on the appropriate level of the green. Players who find themselves on the opposite side of the pin, will have to summon their best touch to avoid a three putt. Once again, par is a good score here.

Oaks Course - Hole #4 - Par 4 - 481 yards - Handicap 1 Hole #4 on the Oaks Course is possibly the most difficult par 4 on the front 9. This hole was the first hole to be grassed during construction and has a stately and majestic feel about it. The tee shot requires power and precision as the fairway is one of the narrowest on the course. Finding the fairway is a must. A well struck tee shot leaves the player with a long iron or fairway wood second shot to a beautiful but devilish green. This green site is one of the most picturesque on the Oaks Course with old gnarly oak trees clearly evident around it, along with the artistic bunkers featuring a rock out cropping along the back edge. This green has significant movement in it and two putts for the player will be considered a success. Par on this hole is like a birdie.

Oaks Course - Hole #5 - Par 4 - 342 yards - Handicap 15 Time to take a break. After the demanding first four holes, we turn to the shortest par 4 on the Oaks Course. Playing downhill and downwind, this hole is only 342 yards from the back tees. The short hole provides a myriad of options for all players. Let the big dog eat and try to drive it on the green or play safely to the fairway with an iron. The short second shot must be played from the fairway in order to hold the subtle but challenging green. While the green looks flat, don’t be fooled. It slopes from front to back allowing only crisply struck shots to stop quickly. A good chance for birdie for all players.

Oaks Course - Hole #6 - Par 4 - 403 yards - Handicap 11 As players walk up to the 6th tee, they face one of the more beautiful tee shots on the Oaks Course with signature oak trees framing both sides. From the back tee the player must carry over almost 200 yards of native area to find the fairway. The best tee shots will finish on the right side of the fairway leaving the player with the optimal angle into a difficult green. The green setting is spectacular with majestic oaks as well as the JW Marriott serving as a backdrop. This second shot is played into a green which is well protected on the left with a large bunker and roll-offs to the right. Be cautious for back hole locations because going long leads to almost certain bogey. It is only 403 yards, but dynamite comes in small packages.

Oaks Course - Hole #7 - Par 3 - 207 yards - Handicap 17 The second Par 3 of the day plays 207 yards, slightly uphill with the wind coming from the right. The 7th green is the larger portion of the double green the player encountered while playing the 2nd hole. The monstrous 8,000 sq. ft. bunker, which was hidden from the player on the 2nd hole, is clearly evident from the tee. A high tee shot with a soft landing is called for in order to hold this long, narrow green. Par is always a good score, but especially here.

www.ValeroTexasOpen.com 11 Oaks Course - Hole #8 - 604 yards - Par 5 - Handicap 5 The second Par 5 on the front nine is the exact opposite of its neighboring Par 5 Hole #2. This hole plays uphill and downwind, stretching more than 600 yards in length from the back tees. Try to avoid the left side off the tee and the beautiful specimen Oak that was transplanted to this hole from the 14th. A good tee shot will find the player at the crest of the hill. The second shot can be anything from a mid-iron to a fairway wood, depending on your preferred approach shot. It is vital the player’s second shot ends up in the fairway, allowing for a controlled approach to this split level, heavily contoured and well protected green. Finding the right level on the green is important to ensure you don’t spend too much time putting around.

Oaks Course - Hole #9 - 474 yards - Par 4 - Handicap 3 This is the only hole on the Oaks Course without a bunker. This straightaway par 4 requires both accuracy and brawn off the tee. The key to this hole is finding the green with your second shot. While the player faces no bunkers guarding the green, the green is long, narrow, and protected by sharp fall offs on all sides. This is one of the deepest greens on the course, so select the club for your approach carefully. Once you find the green, your job isn’t finished. While seemingly flat, the green has a distinct back to front slope. If your putt is aimed towards , it is a fast one!

Oaks Course - Hole #10 - 447 yards - Par 4 - Handicap 4 The back nine begins with a beautiful, downhill Par 4 measuring nearly 450 yards. As with many holes on this golf course, the tee shot must find the fairway, preferably down the left side. A well struck tee shot leaves a player 140 to 160 yards into an elevated green that is well protected by deep bunkers on all sides. Since this hole typically plays into the wind, a player’s second shot must be solidly struck to find the safety of the putting surface. Players must avoid a short right miss which will leave a difficult pitch for the player. Make a par on this one and you are ahead of the game.

Oaks Course - Hole #11 - 405 yards - Par 4 - Handicap 12 The eleventh is one of the most striking holes on the Oaks Course. Players face a decision off the tee, to challenge the cross bunker which requires a 220 yard carry from the back tee or play safely laying up short of the bunker. This hole rewards heroism because a great tee shot leaves only a short pitch to the green. A short drive on the right side means carrying a deep greenside bunker on the approach. Once on the green, the player’s work is not done. The green features some interesting pitch and roll to catch your attention. The player may be rewarded with a birdie for playing aggressively.

Oaks Course - Hole #12 - 410 yards - Par 4 - Handicap 8 The 12th hole is short, but dangerous. The player may choose any club off the tee. The key is being straight and in the fairway. Playing from the rough will almost assure the player a bogey. The second shot will only be a short iron but is played uphill and downwind to an elevated green protected by a set of enormous twin bunkers which are the deepest on the golf course. The green, while quite large is segregated into several levels which forces the player to have precise control with the second shot. Believe it or not the best miss on this hole is long, leaving the player a simple chip back. Miss it short, right or left, and you will be busy. It's only 410 from the back tee, but 4 is a great score.

Oaks Course Hole #13 - 241 yards - Par 3 - Handicap 14 The first par 3 on the back 9 is also the longest on the course, measuring over 240 yds from the back tee. From the tee you can see downtown SA and the best play is to aim at the Hemisfair Tower and a right to left shot will find the center of the green. This green is one of the largest on the course and if you find it with your tee shot, you’ll be rewarded with an opportunity for a makable putt.

12 2019 Valero Texas Open Media Guide Oaks Course - Hole #14 - 567 yards - Par 5 - Handicap 10 At 567 yards, this is the shortest par 5 on the golf course and it gives you a chance for birdie. The fairway is relatively wide compared to others on the course and stronger players have a chance to reach the green in 2. A simple lay-up leaves players with a short pitch to the green. Make sure you favor the left side on your lay up since finding the bunker on the right will lead to almost certain bogey. The player who navigates the first 2 shots properly has a great opportunity for birdie.

Oaks Course - Hole #15 - 464 yards - Par 4 - Handicap 2 The 15th hole begins the fantastic finish on the Oaks Course. Much like many other holes on the course, finding the fairway is a must. Avoid the fairway bunker on the right off the tee and you should have a mid to short iron into the green. This smallish green is protected by some of the most artistically designed bunkers on the course. The cross bunker some 40 yards short of the green makes the green appear closer than it actually is. If you can find this green in 2, your putt should be near the hole. Make par here and you have taken your first step toward a fantastic finish.

Oaks Course - Hole #16 - 183 yards - Par 3 - Handicap 18 Arguably one of the most unique par 3's in golf, the short 16th hole features a creative green defined by beautiful bunkers on both sides and the unique feature of a bunker in the center which divides the green into 3 smaller targets. An assortment of teeing areas offer the player, not only different yardages, but different angles into the green. Put it on the right spot of green and birdie or par is almost a certainty. Put it on the wrong side of the bunker and anything goes.

Oaks Course - Hole #17 - 347 yards - Par 4 - Handicap 16 Birdie time. The 17th hole is a risk reward opportunity for players. Aggressive players may have the opportunity to try and drive the green. The fairway is the widest and most generous on the golf course. For the player to have the best approach into the green, he must find the upper portion of the fairway which is protected by a beautiful and dramatic bunker. Although the player can find room down the left side of the fairway, it leaves a much more difficult approach into the green. The main protection for this hole is the massive bunkers and a green with significant movement. Birdies should be plentiful.

Oaks Course - Hole #18 - 591 yards - Par 5 - Handicap 6 A fantastic final hole for our fantastic finish. The 18th hole is a long, uphill par 5. The tee shot should be shaped left to right in order to remain in a fairway sloping from right to left. After the tee shot, players should play up the right side, being cautious to avoid the creek which bisects the fairway and the spectacular bunkers on the right. The third shot will be played with a short iron uphill to a green which is segregated into 3 levels and is well protected by a hill country creek and three bunkers. Players may have visions of making a final birdie to win the Valero Texas Open on this one.

16 2019 Valero Texas Open Media Guide THE VALERO TEXAS OPEN TROPHY Designed By

This year the Valero Texas Open is proud to unveil its new trophy which was designed by Malcolm DeMille, a cousin of legendary filmmaker Cecil B. DeMille and the son of renowned artist and sculptor Leslie B. DeMille. Malcolm DeMille, who has earned a following on the PGA TOUR for his unique trophy designs, has been sculpting professionally since the age of 21. First played in 1922, the Texas Open is the 3rd oldest PGA TOUR tournament, the fifth oldest professional tournament in North America, and the longest running professional golf tournament to be held in the same city its entire existence. Therefore, it only seemed natural to celebrate the rich history of the tournament which ushers in this new era of the Valero Texas Open. The Valero Texas Open commissioned Malcolm DeMille to create a design which for the first time will include a pedestal featuring the names of each champion starting with Bob MacDonald from the inaugural Texas Open. The plates circling the base list the champion names, winning scores and host courses for each of the tournament years. The trophy itself includes many of the iconic buildings of San Antonio’s downtown skyline in tribute to the city and the community that’s embraced this long-standing PGA TOUR event for nearly 100 years.

Design Phase: Great care went into selecting the iconic buildings from the downtown San Antonio skyline. Those featured are: The Alamo, Frost Tower, San Fernando Cathedral, Riverwalk, Marriott Rivercenter, The Tower of Americas, Torch of Friendship, and the . Graphic Arts Modeling Phase: Graphic artists created line drawings of each building’s details, a stone bridge, flag with logo, and a riverboat. These line drawings were imported into a digital sculpturing program, Freeform Plus. Each building was created in “digital clay” within the software to resize and position the buildings, bridge, and riverboat to create the desired composition. Model and Mold Phase: 3D digital printers created plastic model parts from the digital artwork. All the component parts were then hand worked, carved, and sanded to give them the proper look. Silicone molds were made over each model part. Wax & Casting Phase: The molds are cut open, model removed, then injected with molten wax to create a highly detailed replica part in wax. Each wax part is then surrounded with investment making a high temperature mold for lost wax casting. The wax is burned out at 1300° F overnight, then molten bronze is poured into the high temperature mold.

www.ValeroTexasOpen.com 17 Bronze Finishing Phase: Once cooled, the cast parts are removed from the investment. Each piece is then cleaned, sanded, detailed, and polished as needed. All buildings, bridge, sculpture base, and riverboat are fitted together and welded from underneath to make as one sculpture. The Crystal Texas backdrop has the Valero Texas Open logo etched into the glass and is filled with a bronze epoxy. The flag has hand cut and polished white, red, and blue glass precisely fitted into the flag. All bronze cast pieces have a dark patina applied and are then highlighted by hand by removing patina with a mild abrasive pad. Final Assembly Phase: The Crystal Texas with flag is positioned on the bronze base after all other pieces are assembled and finished and secured with clear epoxy. The completed bronze and crystal sculpture is mounted to a dark stained oak wood base with a cast bronze finished Champion title plate. The perpetual base is made in textured oak wood with dark stain, the nameplates around the top have all the early winners for Texas Open starting in 1922. The modern age Champions beginning with 2010 are on individual nameplates going around the perpetual base.

Number of Man Hours: • Design Phase - 15 hours • Graphic Arts Modelling Phase - 100 hours • Model and Mold Phase - 40 hours • Wax & Casting Phase - 40 hours • Bronze Finishing Phase - 40 hours • Final Assembly Phase - 15 hours • Estimate 250 hours to create all design, models, molds, and finished perpetual trophy. • Champions replica trophies will each take 90-100 hours labor to create. Materials Used: 3D printed resins, silicone molds, castable wax, crystal, art glass, oak wood, bronze, brass, patina coloring agents, epoxies, and welding. Total of twelve (12) separate cast bronze pieces, one (1) large Crystal Texas, and one (1) oak wood base. All these separate pieces are hand fitted, finished, and combined to make each Valero Texas Open trophy.

We hope you will be as proud of this trophy as we are for many years to come.

18 2019 Valero Texas Open Media Guide VALERO TEXAS OPEN CHAMPION BOOTS Handcrafted By

Established in 1883, Texas-bred Lucchese uses time-honored craftsmanship techniques to build handmade boots of unrivaled quality, fit, comfort and style. In virtually every step of the boot-making process, they rely on human hands to complete centuries-old tasks to perfection.

Lemonwood pegs are carefully hand-hammered into holes cut in the leather and are more malleable than metal, as they expand and contract with moisture at almost an identical rate as leather. This old world boot-making method is more effective than using a material like brass nails, which would be forced out of the outsole as it swells when exposed to water.

Additionally, lemonwood pegs complete the structure of the boot by holding the insole and outsole together, maintaining the integrity of the hand-lasted instep's fit.

Lucchese artisans expertly guide the needle through the leather by hand, creating the beautiful stitch patterns — from vibrant to classic — that serve as just one mark of the extreme craftsmanship Lucchese cowboy boots are known for.

The Valero Texas Open champion boots’ custom design takes nearly six months to make while ensuring handcrafted perfection. The boots are made out of black caiman crocodile belly and includes the Texas star-shaped applique accents and stitched with the Valero Texas Open logo.

This tradition began at the 2008 Valero Texas Open when Zach Johnson was awarded his boots following his win at La Cantera. Johnson is the only champion to have received two pairs of Champion Boots and selected brown leather boots for his second pair to celebrate his 2009 victory.

Lucchese is proud to be a part of this 11-year tradition of providing boots to the Valero Texas Open champion — a tradition that will live on long into the future.

www.ValeroTexasOpen.com 19 AN INTERVIEW WITH ANDREW LANDRY

San Antonio, Texas DOUG MILNE: Like to welcome Andrew Landry, winner of the 2018 Valero Texas Open. Andrew, congratulations on your first career PGA TOUR victory. With the win, all kinds of things which you can touch on. Among them you move inside the top-10 in the FedExCup standings to No. 9. 17-under 271, clear about two strokes for your first title. With that said, just some thoughts on getting the job done. ANDREW LANDRY: It was obviously a tough week this week. You know, going into the last few weeks with the childbirth and just really getting back out and just trying to have some fun, it was a tough nine holes last week at RBC Heritage where 1 under maybe on the back nine would have catapulted me inside the top-10, so I just had a bad 4-over round on the back. I was playing some good golf and I knew that I was going to be in good shape this week. I had Chuck out, my coach, and we came out and did a lot of work on Tuesday and it was really, really windy. So we just came out and had some fun, and that was kind of the strategy this week is just have some fun and be patient because this golf course can bite you in a hurry. DOUG MILNE: One thing you said earlier in the week which I thought was interesting was the playoff loss to in Palm Springs actually helped you in a way. If you can just elaborate on how you saw that. ANDREW LANDRY: It helps because you get yourself in that situation and you continue to learn. You know, losing in that playoff when I was continuing to hit good shot after good shot, just not making any putts. Normally that's a strength of my game. Now here we are, a winner. DOUG MILNE: And my final question is, thoughts on claiming your first PGA TOUR title in San Antonio, not far from Austin? ANDREW LANDRY: Yeah, it's obviously great to be able to get a win so close to home. I'm only an hour away from my house so it's nice to be able to hop in the car this afternoon and go home. Q. Andrew, at the start of the day playing with Zach Johnson, two-time winner, a veteran, and then , who had a course record yesterday, what were your thoughts? Like did you feel nervous, did that make you feel any more pressure than normal? How were you feeling? ANDREW LANDRY: I felt fine out there, honestly. Obviously you're going to be nervous whenever you're trying to go and compete for your first win. I definitely felt nerves out there, to answer your question, absolutely. But it was -- Zach's such a good guy and he is so -- he just gets it. He was telling me good shot after good shot, just keep pushing. He would change the subject every now and then to just kind of lighten the mood. I just knew what I had to do. I just stuck to my game plan and saw it happen. Q. How much were you battling nerves? It seemed like you and Trey were both battling nerves down the stretch. Was that how you saw it? He had the chunk there on one hole where he chunked it into the green and you missed a couple short birdies. Were nerves an issue there? ANDREW LANDRY: No, nerves weren't issues that early on. 12, I just completely misread the putt, thought it was -- in the book it was showing two percent slope straight left to right and the putt never broke. So I hit a good putt, left it at that and tried to move on. Hit another good putt on the next hole for par and kept the momentum going. The following hole I just had a complete lack of focus. That's all that was. It wasn't that I was nervous at all. I never honestly felt nerves until my third shot going into 18. That's kind of why I think the adrenaline just kind of kicked in and I blasted

20 2019 Valero Texas Open Media Guide that wedge. It was not a good shot, that's not where I wanted to leave it. I was not scared of going in the water, it was just straight adrenaline. Q. Andrew, after you holed that last putt, how much time did it take for you to realize that you were going to be playing in the Masters next year? ANDREW LANDRY: Not until probably I think someone told me. I didn't even really think about it, to be honest with you. There's a lot of perks for a Tour win and you've just got to continue to stay focused and not think about those kind of things. Q. Well, now that you're thinking about it? ANDREW LANDRY: It's awesome. Q. What are the thoughts? ANDREW LANDRY: It's unbelievable. I cannot believe I'm going to get to go to Augusta National. Honestly, I had the opportunity to play it twice with Frank Broyles, who passed away. He was our athletic director at Arkansas and he asked me to go with him once. And another time I think we had a couple other people going because he was a member there. I just said -- I didn't go and I just said, I'll just do it whenever I play it, and now I'm here so it's pretty cool. Matt, did you want to say something? Q. Andrew, if I recall, after the first round at Oakmont you told your dad you were going to win the tournament, if that's correct? ANDREW LANDRY: Yeah, something of that nature. Q. Did you issue any kind of guarantee? ANDREW LANDRY: I did not. It's kind of funny that last -- maybe last night, maybe it was this morning, whenever I was getting up and moving around I just told my wife, I was like, We're not talking about what we're going to wear, we're not talking about any of this, I'm just going to go out and play golf, you just need to figure it out and we'll get there. We've got a lot of golf left and this golf course can bite you in a hurry. It's always -- we're just kind of always not -- if we stay in the present I think that it's going to help out a lot and that's kind of what we did today. Q. Did you realize your mother had an Oakmont shirt on today? ANDREW LANDRY: I did, yeah. They support that proud. Q. I was just curious, how did that week overall, you talked about CareerBuilder, obviously you've had the U.S. Open, you've had the NCAA and getting so close there. It seems like those are several events that kind of helped develop some kind of thick skin and get you to where you were today? ANDREW LANDRY: Yeah, I think every single player out here is good. Every single one of them's great. We're all here for reasons, because we worked really hard and we're really good at what we do. I think that all those kinds of things really help every player whenever you get in a situation and you fail and you continue to fail, you're learning every single time that you do something. So yes, Oakmont definitely did help me. It helped me on how to control my pace and the way my swing is and how important how I walk, how that can lead into my golf swing. So it's definitely something that we've worked on. And definitely breathing more out there whenever I have some nerves and just accepting that I do have nerves and embracing them.

www.ValeroTexasOpen.com 21 Q. Do you feel like this week is a culmination of all that that you've learned? ANDREW LANDRY: I do, yeah. I do. And on top of that I played really good golf. I mean, whenever I play good golf I think that I can win out here. Obviously I just showed that, so it's fun that I'm in this situation right now. Q. Andrew, you said at Oakmont when you were in contention that you tend to play better on more difficult courses. Can you talk about the challenge here at TPC San Antonio, and then what about your game, why is that a strength? ANDREW LANDRY: I've always been a good driver of the golf ball, so whenever I get put in tight golf courses like a U.S. Open-style course where you have to drive the ball well and you have to hit fairways, that's the most important part. I feel like it's just as important out here because we had a lot of wind. We had different directions at all times, every single day was a different direction and I felt like driving the ball out here, you can get on a rock or a cactus real fast. I feel like driving is key. I don't even think I drove it that well this week, but I definitely do think that I ironed it the best that I've hit it in probably about six years, to be honest with you. I went to those new shafts this week and it's just crazy how those worked out. Q. Was there any point today where you were starting to get nervous that maybe this wasn't going to happen for you? ANDREW LANDRY: No, no, I felt confident. I was shocked that the wedge on 17 came up that short, to be honest with you. I thought I hit it right on the number and I think it was maybe a foot from being all the way down. Q. How important was the quick start, three birdies your first three holes? ANDREW LANDRY: Yeah, obviously when you get off to a good start on Sunday being 3 under through 4 or 3 under through 3, that's huge. Getting off to a good start, that's momentum that you can just continue to just go with. I knew that front nine was gettable. I kind of looked at the pin locations to start the round and I knew that you can get those pins and I've just got to hit good tee balls and put myself in an opportunity to be playing from the fairway. So I did that and made a couple putts and, you know, unfortunately Zach and Trey kind of had some hiccups there on the front nine and they didn't play it as well as I did. So I think that that was really, really key to getting to where I am right now. Q. Did you say anything to Trey, or what would you say about at the end he had that miss-hit on, what was it, in front of the bunker? ANDREW LANDRY: Yeah, 17. Q. And then he missed a short putt on 18, might have put a little more pressure on you, but he was right there on your tail? ANDREW LANDRY: For sure. I didn't say anything, to be honest with you. I didn't really talk much today, I was just sticking to my game plan. We cut up a little bit out there, but it wasn't -- Q. What would you say to him? ANDREW LANDRY: I mean, he's obviously a great player and I think that he's going to be in this situation again and I think that he will excel. I mean, that guy can absolutely move the golf ball. I've never played with him, that was the first time I played with him and it's pretty impressive. Q. One other thing, you're from Port Neches? ANDREW LANDRY: Port Neches. Q. And your wife just had a child? ANDREW LANDRY: Yep.

22 2019 Valero Texas Open Media Guide Q. Your first? ANDREW LANDRY: First one. Q. How long ago? ANDREW LANDRY: A month and a few days. Q. Okay, great. Congratulations. ANDREW LANDRY: Thank you. Q. What did you grow up -- in Port Neches, was that close to the river? ANDREW LANDRY: Yeah. Q. Were you a fisherman? ANDREW LANDRY: Yeah, I was a fisherman. I love to fish. We went -- my brother and my dad, my dad grew up -- made us grow up bass fishing. Didn't make us, but we did. We loved bass fishing. My grandpa had a place at the lake. Then we eventually turned into salt water fisherman so we really pound that in the offseason. Q. Where did you fish, what lake? ANDREW LANDRY: I can't tell you that. Q. Okay. ANDREW LANDRY: Those are secrets. Q. What kind of family did you have here today? Was all your family here today? ANDREW LANDRY: Yeah, everybody, everybody. No, my mom and my dad, brother, wife, my brother's wife, my brother's wife's brother. I mean, we had the whole crew out. My parents, or my wife's parents. Everybody was out, so it was pretty special to be able to snag a victory with everybody being here to share it. Q. Andrew, another one, you were paired with Zach for the last two days. It looked like he was almost cheering you on. Do you have a history with Zach, and what it's like to have a two-time major champion kind of cheering for you? ANDREW LANDRY: I don't know, I didn't really see if he was cheering for me, but I know that he came up to me yesterday and said that that was an impressive round and obviously played very well and his caddie was pretty impressed. I look up to Zach as a player, as a role model. He's always been a great role model to look up to. I feel like we have very similar games where we draw it and we have shut face and we mash it and we'll just move on. He's a great competitor obviously, he's got major championships and PGA TOUR wins, and just to be able to do it with him as a role model is pretty special. Q. Andrew, a lot was made a couple years ago when you were in contention about growing up at the Pea Patch and kind of learning your way on a course that's not exactly country club type. Can you just put that in perspective on kind of having that background and what you learned and how that kind of shaped your career? ANDREW LANDRY: I learned the bump and run, obviously didn't show on No. 11. Chris Stroud, who plays on the PGA TOUR as well, he grew up there as well. It's funny that we have two Tour players that played from a nine-hole goat ranch, seriously. It's pretty amazing that both of us got out. It just shows that it doesn't really matter where you come from, it just matters the determination and hard work, anything that you put your mind so that you can accomplish. Q. When you were there practicing as a kid, when did you first kind of dream about being a PGA TOUR winner? ANDREW LANDRY: Oh, man, probably the first year that I ever played golf, 10 years old. I played good and I was always a competitor with my brother and tried to beat him in everything. He pushed me to another level, so I give him props for that. We just always had fun games out there. We had plenty of good players to play with. It was crazy, you could be on the PGA TOUR and a guy in Crocs could beat you. I'm not lying. It's pretty funny. It's just like I said, determination, hard work, that's kind of where you end there.

www.ValeroTexasOpen.com 23 Q. Your dad said that they've turned that into kind of a housing development now? ANDREW LANDRY: Yeah. Q. When's the last time you've been to that area? ANDREW LANDRY: Not too long ago, maybe Christmastime. Q. What goes through your mind when you see that area now? ANDREW LANDRY: It's just sad. There were so many people, good people that loved that golf course and loved the -- to go and play the Tuesday games and just have some fun out there and drink some beer, just have a good time. It's pretty sad that it went under and now that it's a housing development now, so it's sad. Q. I'm sorry, one last question. Now that you've broken through, do you feel like this might open the floodgates? I mean, it's obviously a constant battle to win any week and very hard, but then you kind of got the first one past you now? ANDREW LANDRY: Yeah, it's obviously very hard to win out here, so it could open the flood gates, I don't know. I mean I hope it does, I hope it opens up for a bazillion of them. But it's fine. This was definitely something that I wanted to do and accomplish and now we've got to set some more goals and try to achieve something higher, like a major championship. DOUG MILNE: Got one last question. Your dad has been with FedEx essentially your whole life as a kid growing up. Was FedEx something that you kind of as a kid looking at his dad and what his dad does for a living, was that something that kind of fascinated you? ANDREW LANDRY: No, not really, to be honest. I wanted to be a golfer. We played growing up. I loved baseball, still do. But whenever I switched over to golf, that was kind of my dream and my parents and brother and my whole family supported me an unbelievable amount to where I can just push myself to another level and try to go win out here. DOUG MILNE: And that you've done. Anybody else? Q. Obviously getting a pair of cowboy boots is part of winning here. I assume that's not going to be your first pair? ANDREW LANDRY: Nope, I've got a couple pair at home. Q. How many pairs do you have? ANDREW LANDRY: I think I have maybe two or three. Not anything special. We used to get pairs of Luccheses from the All-American Tournament in college. I used to have a couple pairs of those. DOUG MILNE: Andrew, congratulations. ANDREW LANDRY: Thank you, guys.
