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.
affected bit game played short today wrong
I played better today, but what's been going wrong with my game affected my short game today a bit as well.
bit challenge players question
I don't think there's any question that there was a bit more challenge for the players who started late.
bit certain courses funny golf hard leads three week
It's a funny week too. With three golf courses it's hard to prepare, so that leads to a certain bit of the unknown.
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.
easiest event playing win
There's a lot of expectations with defending. Definitely, the easiest way to win an event is, without a doubt, to be playing well and to be under the radar.
golf performed quite stay strengths
It can be quite a frustrating golf course. One of my strengths is to stay patient, and that's probably why I have performed well here in the past.
nice totally
It's a totally different scenario. We do our own thing. It's nice being your own boss.
badly contention easier finish fun game gets jump life seven sudden tougher win
Life is a lot easier when you play badly and then all of a sudden you get in contention and win one. No one gets on your back. When you finish runner-up seven times, everyone is asking, 'Why aren't you winning?' It's much more fun when you jump into a win out of the blue. It's a much tougher game when you play consistently well.

It's going to happen. The golf courses in Europe are being set up more like U.S. Open courses -- they're tighter than a regular PGA Tour event so maybe the U.S. Opens should suit Europeans now.
