Players 2025: ‘furious’ after the defeat API, Collin Morikawa is ready again to oppose: ‘I want pressure’

Beach Ponte Vedra, Fla. – Collin Morikawa may not have stopped talking to the media after he lost the Arnold Palmer invitation, but he had a lot to tell Tuesday before the player championship.

Morikawa was late with three shots late on the back nine on a hill in Bay before quick finish from Russell Henley – Birdy – Bogey S 14^th hole, a little probable chip in eagle 16. and then two trouts to close – she earned him the greatest victory of his career.

Morikawa was already on the road from the city, while Henley’s obligations wrapped up after victory.

“It’s just warming up,” he said. “It’s just angry.”

Morikawa did not win the fall in 2023. years, but there was no lack of possibility. Last year, he still didn’t fully in his game, he managed eight the best 10s (including two runners) despite the average of the final circle scoring that was out of the top 100 on tour. This led to some introspection last fall as he tried to figure out how the game was all so easily reached him earlier in his career, which led to two quick Mažorecs – and what can now be done.

“Early, I just played much better,” he said about this final level, and in his big victories, 64 and 66. “You can then return to slowly returning now, and you just have to continue to continue with it.”

Morikawa does not think that Hill Hill lost his Sunday; He quickly pointed out the quality of Henley’s back on his back nine. But Morikawa also admitted that he was not sharp enough to win.

“That’s why I think it’s really frustrating,” Morikawa said. “If you kill yourself, you win – I can’t do anything about it. But I knew I had more to control that day where I was, Man, if I have two more birds, I won the tournament. Well I’m watching in both ways. And that’s why he sucked. That’s why you’re angry. But you have to move on. “

On Tuesday, there were more than dozens of questions about Morikawin Sunday and how he felt at that moment, as he rationalized the defeat, how he would learn to move forward. Sometimes he hit a defiance tone, saying he knows he gives a lot of possibilities – and he will turn them. Soon. Maybe even this week in players.

“If you take over comfort in the fact, Oh, man, it’s really, really hard to winAccording to me, that way of thinking is not where I want to be, “he said.” I’m going out here to try and win every week. My opinion is: I know it’s hard, but screw up – I want a challenge. I want it to be difficult. I want everyone to come after me. I want eyeballs on you. I want pressure. …

“I put myself in the position to perform, and I know I have before in the past. They’re just small, little things that can make a difference. Everyone has a rise, we all have down and we’ll figure it out.”
