Chris Haack Win Quotations

You can't win it on the first day, but the guys played solid from top to bottom. I hope to see the rest of the weekend played as well as we played today. We'll take it one shot at time. We don't worry about anybody but ourselves.

We had some guys get off to a rough start, but we hung in there and kept the lead. The main thing is, we still have a chance to win it. That's all players and coaches ever want. Our guys have been here before, so they know what to expect and how to respond to this challenge.

When I first saw this golf course I thought 4 or 5 or 6 under might win. So to shoot 19 under, I'd definitely rate this effort an A-plus. I give our guys a lot of credit. They came out and played extremely well. I hope this sets the tone for us for the year. It certainly shows we can win and can win against the best teams.
