"I come from the East Coast, man. We don't putt on sponges like this. So it's tough for me to come up here and putt on poa. It's really tough for a lot of East Coast guys. And I think there's some other things that factor into it. But needless to say, the golf course doesn't suit me very well, and I don't care for it very much."--DJ Trahan, among the leaders and one of the few detractors of anything this week.

"I thought it was great and the reason I'm so proud is that, this is my hometown and everybody out here was so respectful. There wasn't any derogatory remarks. Whether they pulled for any of the three of us, everybody was really cool today. I was very proud to be from here." San Diego native Phil Mickelson, following the second round.

"No, it's not easier (than other US Open courses). A couple guys were talking yesterday, one or two of the instructors, how guys are saying the course is easy. I haven't seen easy out here. There's not one hole out here where you can fall asleep."--Rocco Mediate, second-place following third-round.

"If one word was used to sum up the 2008 U.S. Open, it would probably be the term, "Fair." But then you look at the leaderboard and see that there are only three players under par, seemingly just like any other US Open. So maybe the best words would be "Fair but difficult."--Brian Hurlburt, GolfLasVegasNow.com

"It's going to take a ridiculous round by one of us to beat him. If we go out and shoot 4- or 5-under par one of us, you never know. But you can't ever count anything. It's just you can't really predict anything that's going to happen." Rocco Mediate.
