Q. Max, welcome back to flash. Can you talk a little bit about your round today, especially given the different weather conditions?
MAX GREYSERMAN: Yeah, way less wind, at times it's pretty minimal. It was gettable out there, a lot of birdies to be had and if you played well and executed you could go pretty low. I saw someone shot 61, so not surprising. You've just got to make a lot of birdies out here. It's a fairly easy course if you execute. I'm sure at the same time, hit a bad drive and be out of play or not make putts, but it's out there.
Q. (No microphone.)
MAX GREYSERMAN: Yeah, fortunately made a few yesterday, made a few today. It was easier to putt with less wind, so that was kind of a key. Obviously I was in the afternoon so it's bumpier on this Paspalum, but without the wind it was much easier to make putts and kind of understand what's going on because in the wind, it could gust and you could hit a perfect putt exactly where you wanted to and it's blowing 25 like yesterday, it won't go in.
Q. (No microphone.)
MAX GREYSERMAN: No, no, it was a pretty smooth day I would say. Had two pretty bad errors, but I can't complain because overall it was a solid round. From the start to the finish I executed pretty nicely, so just looking to keep doing the same thing tomorrow.
Q. When you looked at that leaderboard and saw Nico's name there, what did you think?
MAX GREYSERMAN: I thought that here we go again, let's go, this is going to be fun. Same thing two weeks ago, you know? Yeah, it's going to be fun tomorrow.
Q. What's working so well in your game right now, runner-up two weeks ago and now here you are T-1?
MAX GREYSERMAN: I think I've been playing well for a while and coming off earlier in the season, just understanding the Tour, where I belong and just building confidence, I guess, and executing just a little bit better every week. I feel like now I've kind of got my game in a place to where if I'm playing solid, I'm going to be at the top of the leaderboard and it's a good spot to be and hope to keep doing it.
