"I actually didn't really expect to win. I mean, I always enter a tournament hoping to win. But with a tough field like this I wasn't even really thinking about it until today. The goal was to just play against whoever I was going to play and run good against them, see if they had some leaks, and try to exploit those - and I happened to run really, really good during the entire tournament. Now, here I am," Wolpert said after the tournament.
