    Baltusrol Golf Club, Springfield, New Jersey, USA. 29 July, 2016.

    1. 00:00 SOUNDBITE: (English) Henrik Stenson: "I'm of course very happy to be able to follow up the success at Troon with a couple of strong rounds here and be in good position. We know it's a marathon, not a sprint. It's all about being there for Sunday afternoon, and so far, so good. You're not winning anything on a Thursday and a Friday, but you can put yourself in the wrong direction early doors. So happy with that and yeah, I think I played some great shots out there, and maybe a few that wasn't so great. But all in all, I'm very pleased with that."

    2. 00:32 SOUNDBITE: (English) Martin Kaymer: "It was raining pretty much since I woke up. I woke up at 4:45 and it was raining until the third hole. It was a pain to get ready in the rain and it's hard.

    "I started not the way I wanted, to be honest, even though it was very tough today. I started with a couple of bogeys the first three holes."

    3. 00:56 SOUNDBITE: (English) Andrew Johnston: "You know, it's fine margins. Just hit one drive a bit better, you know one iron, hole one more putt and then you're looking at a 2 or 3 under round which I think is a decent score out there.

    4. 01:05 SOUNDBITE: (English) Patrick Reed: "Just seems like every week and every day, there's always one kind of aspect that's missing. Yesterday, I was hitting my irons great, was putting pretty well, but I couldn't keep a driver on the planet. So I switched my driver to my old driver, and went in today, hit the driver better. I missed a couple short putts I felt like I should have made. The difference between a Top-10 and a win out on Tour is, you hit fairways, you hit greens, and those 50/50 putts, you're always on the right side of them."
