The crowd support there was fantastic, (so) it’s no surprise. The fans know their golf and it’s neat to see. They come out for the guys like Bubba Watson and Rickie (Fowler), who I played with. A lot of support. It’s a really strong turnout and I hope it continues.” Brandt Snedeker: “It was a great week. I was kind of blown away for a first-time event with the fans and the outpouring of support we felt as the players this week…I haven’t felt that in a long time out here, to see so many people grateful for us coming up here and playing golf…Normally these things take a few years to really get their stronghold going, but I’ve been thanked by more fans this week for coming to play golf, which just blew me away…I haven’t seen anything like this on Tour for a long time.”
