Quotes
“That’s probably some of the best golf I’ve ever played, just from the start putts were going in,” Eckroat said.
“I don’t know, it was automatic out there today, I guess, is how you could call it. It’s crazy I only won by one shooting 9-under par today from one back.
"Obviously, everybody was playing well, it was a good battle.”
