I was happy to finish strong. I didn't play well Thursday, so it's funny how things turned for me today.
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.
buffer build happy hard hoped last round work
I had hoped to build a buffer going into the last round but that was not to be, ... There is still a lot of hard work ahead, but I'm still happy to be right in front.

I didn't swing it very well for the first 14 holes, but over the last four holes I got back into it and made some really nice swings, so I am happy about that.

I am very happy with today's round and it was nice to birdie the last two holes, as it was a very tough day,

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,

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.

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.
