And, you - know, i think maybe off the bac- - - - of yesterday, yeah it starts to- feel pretty different pretty- quickly, but again i kinda told- myself coming off the - eighth hole hey, you're leading- the masters.

Your frame of- reference is a little bit - different to yesterday.

You - know, four ahead is something,- but still leading so like enjoy- it- and keep going."
