   I'm 72 and my wife is 70. It would be easy to knock us over, my wife actually went online and found a little mirror to attach to her wrist to look behind her so she's not constantly turning around. We go single file so she can see that mirror and see what's behind us.

Now I’m hungry,’ didn’t hit many fairways on the front nine, so I think that showed on the scorecard. I think just hitting the fairways this week is essential to having a good round. I don’t think distance will help that much because the rough is so long. You’re going to break your wrist if you hit it all at a time.

I hope to be back in Shanghai for the 2020 tournament.
