What they said: Ken Duke
THE MODERATOR: Ken Duke, thanks for coming into to speak with us. Runner-up finish today here at the U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee. Going out there today you might have thought, final round 65, I’d be in good position. Richard S. Johnson shoots 64, clips you by one. Your second runner-up finish in the last two years. Obviously, playing well. Played so well on the Nationwide Tour in 2006, a lot of expectations coming out. You played great last year. You played well this year. You have to be pleased.

Great first round, great last round, and you’re $720,000 richer and jump into the race for the Fed Ex Cup. Maybe some opening comments.
