First Round Interview with Mac Meissner

Q. Mac, what about your round today? It was kind of an upanddown round, or how would you describe it?

MAC MEISSNER: Yeah, for sure. I actually woke up and was not feeling great this morning, struggling, I don't know if it was heat exhaustion or something, but was having a really hard time out there and fought my way to a 72. Happy with it. Obviously would have liked to have played better under pretty good conditions. Try and go fight it out tomorrow.

Q. Just the start time for you and what you were battling there, how tough was it to go through that, walk through it just as it got hotter?

MAC MEISSNER: It's so hard, you try and hydrate and nutrition your body as much you can. Sometimes your body's just not feeling great. Yeah, like I said, I'll try and get some rest and something to eat tonight and hopefully we'll be feeling better in the morning.

Q. Is this one of those deals where you're going to get an early start tomorrow, is it just a chance to quickly turn the page and just see what you can do tomorrow?

MAC MEISSNER: For sure. We'll get probably some more receptive greens. They were obviously extremely firm on that back nine, it was really tough to get anything close, so that will be nice. And some smoother greens also helps as well. Just keep trying to put the ball in the fairway and give ourselves as many opportunities as we can.
