Athlete's Comments
- Kaeding "It was a great day for golf, beautiful weather and the only thing I was focused on was always the next shot. I just tried to have fun out there and play without thinking about my swing. My shots into the green as well as the putts were good, which helped out a lot. It worked out well, I had a lot of fun and I am looking forward to tomorrow."
- Wahren "Well I always try to take it shot by shot and focus on what I am doing right now instead of what I am going to do next. I played agressive today and went for almost every flag which means that you make some mistakes, and sadly I made a few bogeys, but at the same time I had a total of seven birdies which helped me to shoot these two decent scores."
