Na was one shot behind co-leaders Kraft and Harold Varner to begin the day .
His birdie stretch included making putts of 24 , 33 and 43 feet . „ My putter got hot ,‰ Na said . „ The first day the putter felt awful , and ( then ) it just clicked . Every time I got over the ball it felt great , and everything felt like it was going in .‰ By the time he strolled up to the 18th green , Na was at ease , relaying his love to his wife and young daughter toward a TV camera . He cried during a television interview after the round as he relayed a message in Korean to his overseas fans . „ I didnÊt want to leave the Korean fans out ,‰ Na said .
