From the papers

This was the first time I had no bogeys for 54 holes and the first time I had no three putts for 54 holes, so I was very consistent and solid.

I am wrapped up for Player of the Year and I've played the best I can all year. I am disappointed that I cannot win the Vare Trophy because I won't get the required number of rounds.

I played well the first day to the last day. I came here to set many more records. The Mizuno Classic has been a good tournament to me.
