Laguna National Player Quotes

The following are quotes relating to the Masters course.  However, several are useful in terms of humidity and potential wind conditions. We will update with quotes relating to the Classic course when these become available.

“I think this is a very good course. It was so different today after the wind on the two practice days. Today was playing shorter. It was playing good for scoring. If the wind picks up scores won’t be as low.” Carlos Rodiles, 2002

“I have to say that the heat eventually got to me a little bit,” he said. “I felt a little bit tired towards the end and it was tough.” Ernie Els, 2003

 "Very narrow fairways and Just have to play solid tee shot.  If you're good off the tee you'll be great this week I think." Haotong Li, 2023
