Q.         Do you feel like the number could be a little lower today?

            BRUCE VAUGHAN:  Yeah, I think so.  I left a few putts out there, you know, got away with a few shots.  And played okay; you know, nothing crazy, nothing bad.  So I'm happy with it.  And a little disappointed.  I mean, it should have been, could have been.

            Q.  Because you missed, what, about a 5-footer and 10-footer coming in?

            BRUCE VAUGHAN:  Well, it was a little farther than that.  The one on 18 was probably ten feet or something.

            Q.  Did you feel like you hit pretty well all day?

            BRUCE VAUGHAN:  Not really.  I didn't really hit it solid, still made some bad swings and got away with them and stuff.

            But, you know, I didn't do anything stupid, you know.  Just kind of kept the ball out there in front of me and, you know, missed a few putts.  But, overall, I mean, three more of these 68s and see where that finishes.

            Q.  Did it feel like a 68 today?

            BRUCE VAUGHAN:  It is what it is (laughter.)

Q.         What about number 10, birdied 10, 11, 13.  What did you do so well...

            BRUCE VAUGHAN:  I didn't birdie 10.  I birdied 11 and 13.

            Q.  What did you do so well there to start the back nine?

            BRUCE VAUGHAN:  Nothing.  You know, I knocked it on 9 there and 2‑putted it for birdie, and then, 11, I, you know, missed a green on that Par5 and 2 but got it up and down.  Then hit a pretty good shot on 13, you know, about three feet and made that.

            But, you know, I had a few other chances.  But, you know, I would have liked to made that one on 18.

            Q.  Any carry over from last week?

            BRUCE VAUGHAN:  I think just the same play.  You know, just played pretty decent since last... I played pretty good all of last week.  The last few days I played a little better.  So, you know, just like I said, I just kept the ball in front of me and didn't do anything stupid.

            Q.  Crowds?

            BRUCE VAUGHAN:  The crowds are good.  I'm impressed.  There's a lot of crowd.

            You know, I didn't play last year.  I played at Whistling Straits, and they didn't have near as many people.  But guys got to be happy with the crowds here, I believe, absolutely.

            I was surprised how many people were out here on Tuesday, you know.  Then yesterday the weather was kind of bad when I was playing a practice round but there were still a lot of people out here.  I think it's good crowd.
