Rickie fired a -7 under par 64 to top the Waste Management Phoenix Open after 54 holes with a -20 under total, and will take a four shot lead into the final round tomorrow;
“It’s been nice to kind of have some things click on the swing this week.”
“We have been working on some things the last few weeks pretty hard and trying to just get into some better positions to make things more efficient and ultimately more consistent.”
” I obviously want to win here. This is a special place. It would be awesome.”
Matt Kuchar has grabbed second place with third round -6 under 65 for a -16 under total;
“I played with Rickie the first two days; he’s playing great golf.”
“Certainly he’s going to be the player to beat, especially if he keeps up on the form he’s on, but, however, I feel like my form’s pretty good, as well.”
Rickie’s house mate this week Justin Thomas slipped back into third place at -15 under par, a third round -3 under 68 could not keep him touch. He was asked about Rickie’s doubters who claim he does not win enough tournaments;
“Yeah, but the thing about Rick though is he doesn’t listen to that.”
“And that’s why he has the probably the best demeanor on TOUR, that’s why he continued to play great golf, he continues to get himself in contention in the biggest tournaments.”
“He would be the first to tell you he should have won more than he has.”
“But it’s hard to win, there’s only one winner every week, and he’s played plenty well enough, and I’m sure it’s going to happen plenty of times.”
