bit couple holes hopefully last morning post tomorrow wind
The wind made the last couple of holes pretty tough. If there is no wind when I play tomorrow morning hopefully I can post a bit of a score.
couple eventually finish hold less shots struggled worse
Eventually he didn't finish off the match, really, and then I got a couple of breaks. It was more or less up to Vijay. I just hold on in there and really I really struggled with my shots today, worse than yesterday. I don't know what it's going to be like tomorrow.
couple pleased somewhat
I am somewhat pleased but I now need a couple of those at the weekend.
consistency couple finish last months playing sort starting three until weeks
It's like starting off a new season. I'm playing until the end of the year. I've had a couple of (good) weeks this year, but my consistency hasn't been there, so I want to get out there and sort of finish off the last three months of the year, and finish strong.
convince couple easy finish good mind next reasons strong
I know I've been inconsistent this year. Obviously, there's many reasons for that. But if I finish strong the next couple of months, it will be easy for me in my own mind to convince myself that it was a good year.
bit couple key quick rounds slow struggle
The first couple of rounds are very important for me because I am a bit rusty. If I do struggle a bit it is going to be tough. The key is to not necessarily make a quick start, but not to make a slow start.
bit couple happy holes last maybe mistakes overall
I made a couple of mistakes on the last couple of holes but overall I was pretty happy with the way I played. If anything, maybe I was a little bit over-confident,
birdie chances couple few good holes last missed
I missed a couple of birdie chances on the last few holes which would have made it a good round. But it's not the end of the world.
course tough
It was tough today, the course is really difficult.
percent
These fairways are at least 50 percent narrower that anything you would see in the States.
next
I would like to come back next year.
finish funny happy turned
I was happy to finish strong. I didn't play well Thursday, so it's funny how things turned for me today.
home maybe sunday tiger won
Tiger has won 10 majors, so maybe he can go home on a Sunday night.
bit conditions golf growing happy learn wind
Growing up in Ireland, you learn how to play the wind. Or if you don't, you don't play golf, one or the other. Yeah, I like the conditions here. I'm very comfortable here. I'd be happy to see a bit of wind this week.
