ST. ANDREWS, SCOTLAND
Q. Tell me about your round today, how pleased are you? MARTIN KAYMER: Well, I'm very happy, bogey-free round at a major is always good. I think I gave myself a lot of chances the first 10, 12 holes. I would have loved to have made a couple more birdies because I played really well and I putted well, but in general, to shoot 4-under par is very good, especially the last six, seven holes is very, very long. You hit drivers, and then 2-irons and 3-irons into the greens. It's very tough to make birdies.
Q. Are you pleased with how the championship has gone overall for you? MARTIN KAYMER: Expectations were a lot higher. It's my favourite golf course in the world. I've been successful here before. Of course you're thinking about winning it. That's why there was a priority on the biggest goal. Didn't really seem much of a chance after yesterday because yesterday was really the day where you could score, and I shot only 2-under par and probably level par was 3- or 4-under, so yesterday was pretty much the day where I didn't give myself a chance for today anymore.
Q. Was it different for you playing on a Monday for the final day? MARTIN KAYMER: No, it didn't really matter at the end of the day. There were still a lot of people out there. The weird day was Saturday. You had a break within the tournament. I never had that in my career. I still hit some balls on Saturday because I really needed -- I felt like it was probably the best day that we had all week. It was just impossible to play golf. But to finish on Monday, you know, there was a Hugo Boss day planned for today, and it's only once a year. It was really, really unlucky for them. Henrik and me, will come a little bit later today and do a little bit more tomorrow, but a Monday finish is fine.
