Golf Channel Notable Quotes
Golf Central Live From THE PLAYERS
Sunday, May 15, 2016 (7-9 p.m. ET, first hour)
TPC Sawgrass (Stadium Course), Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla.

On Jason Day (15-under, winner)
Brandel Chamblee – “In a lot of ways I’d say this is his most impressive victory. We’ve sat here talking about how this golf course really doesn’t fit his game. On a golf course that punishes you so much for being out of position coming into the greens, it wasn’t a great fit for him… And in kind of a different way than the PGA Championship, this was mind-blowing impressive.”
Frank Nobilo – “It wasn’t against the field or the golf course for Jason Day. It was simply battling his own desire… That’s the belief of being exactly where he wanted to be and actually enjoying where he is right now. [He’s] on an incredible clip at the moment.”
David Duval – ““The toughness he showed not ever falling into the trap of trying to jump back on the driver and just blast it down there is a real testament to how he’s developed. You’re seeing the true fruits of labor coming to a head now. He showed what he is, showed himself to be the champion. He really never gave anybody much hope.”
Nobilo – “He keeps putting himself in front of the story, and tells us what he wants to do. He has a very clear picture which takes away all the clutter. It helps the confidence.”

On TPC Sawgrass
Chamblee – “Week in-and-week-out on the PGA TOUR the golf courses reward power. This golf course doesn’t. This golf course rewards accuracy. So that’s why you get different names here… But that’s what makes this golf course so special.”
Duval – “Power trumps lack of power. Distance is always an asset. Even on golf courses when you don’t get to use the driver as much.”
