I had a perfect yardage and it was the best swing I've ever made. I can still feel that swing.

The second win is way more sweeter than the first one because if you win just one, you don't know if it's a fluke or not

I had a few things go my way on the last two holes, so it's nice to finish with two birdies. Unfortunately, I still did not win the golf tournament, but a pretty solid week.
