Patrick Reed
On defending his title at a different venue
Assessing the course
"Whether it's water edges or bunkers seems to tighten it up. It's one of those that you have to stay aggressive, but at the same time have to have full control of your golf ball."
On the chipping and putting skills needed at The Concession Club
On the state of his game
"Yeah, I feel good. I was able to get some pretty good work in earlier this week and part of last week with my coach, so I came down here a little early. It's a little hard practicing at home considering we had snow in Texas. The great thing is luckily we're safe, everything was fine and from that point on once we got kind of to Florida, just put our head down, grind and get back in the swing of things.
