U.S. Open 2016 Dustin Johnsons answers are unbelie
OAKMONT, Pa. Listening to golfers talk over the last few days has been nice. Shane Lowry wouldn't sound out of place in a Guy Ritchie movie.Jason Day could retire today and bytomorrowbe the best analyst in the busine s. Bryson DeChambeau speaks with the cadence and vocabulary ofa grad-student instructor in a 300-level physics cla s.And then there's Dustin Johnson. (UPDATE: .)He is the best. Los Angeles Dodgers Jersey Kyle Porter (@KylePorterCBS) MORE: MORE: This is an actual excerpt from Johnson's interview a few hours before, on Saturday night. He'd just nearly finished his third round before sunset, two strokes off the lead, and he didn't see the need to go into detail where he saw none. It was refreshing.Q.Do you want (the course)to be as hard as it can po sibly be?DUSTIN JOHNSON: I'm pretty sure it's going to be hard.Q.Jason was just saying he Ross Stripling Jersey wanted it to be really hard. Maybe to the advantage of guys who are indiscernible , maybe.DUSTIN JOHNSON: I would imagine it's going to be quite difficult Sunday.Q.On 17, are you going to use your driver again?DUSTIN JOHNSON: I don't know where the flag is.Q.Okay.DUSTIN JOHNSON: But when I get there, I'll decide.Not all his answers are like that. A lot of them are, though. And it doesn't come acro s as rude, either. He just doesn't have much to say, and when he does, thecalmne s of his delivery belies all those last-round major meltdowns. The dudedoesn't seem capable of being particularly concerned, let alone legitimately tense.Johnson was set to tee off his final round with Lee Westwood at 3:20, one behind leader Lowry (minus-7)and and Kevin Landry (also at minus-3). Maybe he'll come back, nip Lowry and finally give his first media se sion Yasmani Grandal Jersey as a major champ. It'd go something like this.MORE: Q: Dustin, congratulations.it's been a long road. After Pebble Beach and Chambers Bay and how much does it mean for you to win this specific tournament at this specific course?DUSTIN JOHNSON: It's great.Q: When you aced 18 to take the lead, what was going through your head? It's a 484 yard Par 4. Was that an in-the-moment decision? Had you always been planning it? And did the risk outweigh the reward? How much does risk a se sment come into play on a course like this, in a situation like that?DUSTIN JOHNSON: I was just trying to make a good golf shot.Q: It has to be a relief to lose that tag, though, right? It's not just about potential anymore, for you. You've arrived. Did you ever doubt that today would come?DUSTIN JOHNSON: Not really, no.Q: Afterwards, while you were waiting for Shane to finish, the fire in the clubhouse had you ever seen anything like that? A clubhouse burning down while they tried to finish a tournament?DUSTIN JOHNSON: Corey Seager Jersey Yeah, I don't think I have.Q: And you saved a woman, right? I saw you fireman-carrying an elderly woman out of the door that face 18. That was an amazing act of heroism.DUSTIN: Thanks.Q: Dustin, your relationship with Wayne Gretzky what is it like to have the third or fourth-best player of all time in your corner? Because Gordie Howe, Bobby Orr and Mario Lemieux were all better. Wayne Gretzky, your girlfriend's dad and your son's grandfather,is not history's greatest hockey player, and that is a fact.DUSTIN JOHNSON: Wayne is a good person and means a lot to me. Glad to have him here.Q: Dustin, we all know about the trees here; . I'm wondering what do you think happened to the squirrels? Because the squirrels lived in the Walker Buehler Jersey trees. Did they die? Did they relocate? Did they take over the town? I've been here all week and haven't seen a single damn squirrel.And what are your thoughts on squirrels in general? Because I don't trust them. They are glib.DUSTIN JOHNSON: Not sure about the squirrels. Thought I saw one on 14 a couple days ago, but I don't know.Q: Thanks, Dustin.DUSTIN JOHNSON: You're welcome.
