Q. When your name comes up, you've got the Diamante Cabo San Lucas on the left part of your shirt there. What's your tie to this property?
TAYLOR MONTGOMERY: Just met Ken through Shadow Creek out there in Vegas, so everything kind of does come back to Vegas. It's been a really cool relationship. He's one of the best guys I've ever met. What he's doing with this property in the next 10 years is going to be unbelievable.
Q. What was the buildup like to this tournament from when you first met Ken and now you're going to get to tee it up here at a PGA TOUR event?
TAYLOR MONTGOMERY: Yeah. I mean, last year was the first year that I came down here and kind of visited the property. He's like, hey, we have a pretty good chance of having a golf tournament at Tiger's course. I'm like, that would be awesome. And sure enough, next year, here it is.
Q. For those who haven't seen the course, first time on the PGA TOUR we're getting a Tiger Woods design, how would you describe what the layout's like?
TAYLOR MONTGOMERY: This course specifically is more desert golf, pretty big fairways and a lot of undulation around the greens. You can get some easy green complexes into like some bowls and then on other holes you can get some really big fall-offs and you're chipping 10, 15 feet above you. It's a variety of pretty much everything.
Q. What will it be like for you as a guy who grew up watching Tiger and now you're playing at a course that he designed, and he was here earlier this week touring the property?
TAYLOR MONTGOMERY: Yeah, no, it's really cool. It's a guy that you've idolized your whole life. Sat Down and had lunch with him yesterday with Ken and you just get to learn a lot of really cool things from the greatest ever to do it.
Q. Did he give you any of the lay of the land as far as what to look for?
TAYLOR MONTGOMERY: No, no. He's pretty secretive when it comes to golf, which I respect that because he's put in a lot of work to create his own craft. You've really got to nitpick him to try to get some stuff out of him.
Q. For the week, you're talking with different guys, right now not super windy. A lot weeks, I mean, they had a hurricane here a week and a half ago here in Cabo, which is crazy. Touring the property, you can barely tell.
TAYLOR MONTGOMERY: Yeah.
Q. Your expectations for what a winning score could potentially be when it's all said and done?
TAYLOR MONTGOMERY: Well, obviously this course is very wind dependent. If there's no wind, it's going to be pretty low, but if it gets windy, it's obviously a heavy wind being here at sea level, it can -- if there's no wind, it's going to be 20-something under, I would say.
