On the upcoming tournament...
"We are excited to get back into competition this week. The course will provide a completely different look than we have seen in our previous two events. Erin Hills will host the 2017 U.S. Open, so it will be a treat for our guys to have an opportunity to test their game. As we have discussed with our guys throughout this season, we have to have confidence in ourselves, even when we face adversity, especially on a course like this. I know that they are looking forward to the challenge."
