“Any time you can shoot three rounds under par at Shadow Creek, you're pretty happy” said Maguire.

“It's obviously somewhere I've done well in the past in predominantly match play, but the stroke play the one year we did it”.

“I've always said it's one of my favorite venues of the year” added Maguire

“I felt like my game had been a lot better lately than some of the scores I shot, and it was nice to see that come to fruition this week on really the hardest course I played all year”.

“Really, really positive week and really enjoyed the test that was Shadow Creek.”
