Definitely, the putter is definitely the key. I've been hitting the ball consistently all year, just my putter's just not been wanting to do its job. This week, obviously, it did its job.

I've got to say, definitely a little bit pressure off of me. At the same time, I think I needed a little bit of motivation.

I never looked at the scoreboard until I came off 17, with a reachable par 5 to see where I was. I was three back and I was stunned because I was 7 under for the day.
