If you don't -- you know, on 13, you can make 13 for me is the hardest tee shot that I hit all year. I am just so grateful when it lands on grass if it does because it can be there for a while.""But there's a lot of really, really tricky shots. And the rough was a little higher, so when it gets windy like this and there's a lot of crosswinds, it's difficult to hit these little fairways and these greens. But there's always the possibility that someone could go out there and shoot low, but when it's playing like this, this is a tricky little track," he added.Tommy Fleetwood was in the lead after 54 holes, but in the final, after carding a round of 72, he slipped down to second place in a tie with Russell Henley. Jason Day and Harris English settled in a two-way tie for fourth place, followed by Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy, who tied for sixth at 12-under.Brian Harman settled in solo eighth place, followed by Harry Hall, Justin Thomas, and Lucas Glover in a tie for ninth place.
