When asked about the change in altitude and climate at this course, Bennett said, "I really like this set up. The ball definitely carries in this air out here, so I'll need to take that into account on each swing."

"After a short break, I'm looking forward to the next three weeks of tournament golf. I want to continue to learn and build on the momentum I had at Detroit Golf Club," said Bennett.
