Q. Your third playoff win; I thought you got a little bad luck with some of the lies, and I thought you played brilliantly today; just the way things ended for you.
EMILIANO GRILLO: Yeah, like you said, I played well. That's all I can do. I gave my 100. Like you said, couple bad lies. Divot on 18 in regulation, and then I didn't expect to -- I mean, I expected a little bit of a fight; not that much.
Yeah, it is what it is. I got myself there. I gave myself a chance. You know, I made some good putts. Hit a good putt on the 72nd and that's all I can do.
Q. You were 105th in FedExCup points starting the week. You made a major step this week toward the FedExCup Playoffs.
EMILIANO GRILLO: Yeah, no, that's the plan every week. We're one short, but we'll keep working.
Q. Take us through today and just the emotions coming through that final stretch. I'm sure you would've liked to have (indiscernible). How frustrating was that?
EMILIANO GRILLO: I feel like I hit some great putts. I gave my 100%. I played really well. I think I hit every fairway today, except for that first in the playoff.
Unlucky, but it is what it is. It's golf. Sometimes you got to take what you get.
Q. You made nearly 90% of your up and downs as well scrambling-wise. How pleased are you with where your short game is at right now?
EMILIANO GRILLO: Well, I've been working really hard ton. Definitely my worst area, so it's nice to see some trend. If you would've told me at the beginning of the week I would be in the playoff I would've come in second, so...
Q. To know where you're at in the FedExCup standings, how happy does it make you to see that you're close to that top 70 now?
EMILIANO GRILLO: Yeah, I mean, obviously we're aiming for 50. You want to be in all the elevated, play the big ones, and hopefully a little bit better and play Atlanta. That's every PGA TOUR golfer's goal for the year, to be in Atlanta and play all the majors next year.
So working towards that, and this is a big step.
