"That's Pete's magic I guess you might say."

I'm guessing that after some links and heathlands golf, Crooked Stick and it's old style USGA setup is just not evoking the same rush of excitement for Tom Watson. You be the judge based on his post round 1 comments:

I had to relearn the golf course. I didn't remember much about it. A very complicated golf course for me. Just you can't hit it here, you can't hit it here, you can't hit it here, you got to hit it here, you can't hit it here, you can't hit it here. A lot of can't's out there rather than cans the way I look at the golf course. That's Pete's magic I guess you might say.
