McIlroy and Oosthuizen reflect on day 4 at Chambers Bay

Tuesday, June 23 2015 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Reaction from the players on Sunday following the conclusion of the US Open that was won by Jordan Spieth.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Louis Oosthuizen (when asked how proud he is with his round):

    "You sort of forget how you play when you get in that situation of having a chance of winning a major. The last time I felt that was in 2012 at Augusta. It was nice being in that spot again. I felt very relaxed. I felt eager to get to the next hole and try and get some birdies going. I wasn't nervous at all. I'll take a lot out of this week, especially the last three days the way I played. I could have easily today shoot a big number after that start. I just fought and tried to just have a good week."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Rory McIlroy (on his strong final round):

    "Yeah, that was basically it. Got off to a good start. I hit some good shots early on, made some nice putts, and just got a little bit of momentum going there. And I really thought when I held that long putt on 13, I had 16 and 18 coming in. If I could post 4- under par, birdie those two holes coming in, then I thought I had a great chance really, really did. Especially with the way the greens are getting out there, they're getting baked. At least it would be a number for guys to really think about. But I felt I had a good shot on 15 and it just came up short. I had a good first putt and second putt, I lacked a bit of speed. And 16 and 17 killed me as well.
