Tiger's Post 1st Round PGA Press Conference
/After a 69...
Q. Can you talk about the setup and with that many low scores out there, does it change the approach where par is not necessarily a good score?
TIGER WOODS: Well, the greens are soft out there. The wind was pretty benign most of the day. It would come up, die down, come up, die down, but it wasn't a real big factor out there today. With the greens being soft, the guys are going to aim at a lot of flags, indicative of the scores. Any time the greens are fairly soft, you're going to get a bunch of low numbers on the board.
Q. Just getting back to the greens being soft, were they softer in the practice rounds and were you surprised that for a major championship, we haven't had rain around here hardly at all, that they were this soft in the first round?
TIGER WOODS: Well, I was pretty surprised that they had that much moisture in them. But also, then again, they are not exactly smooth, either. So it will be interesting in the afternoons, see what the scores will be.
You get a lot of balls that are bouncing a little bit out there. There's going to be a lot of that just because the greens are so soft.
