COMMERCIAL BANK QATAR MASTERSJanuary 27, 2016Clarke LuttonDoha, Qatar CLARKE LUTTON: It was pretty good. I was a little bit nervous if I'm honest, first European Tour event. It was a good, solid round. Didn't make too many mistakes and just stuck to my game plan really. Q. Was it good to play alongside Andrew McArthur? CLARKE LUTTON: Yeah, never met him before but nice to play with him. He's a nice guy. Kind of kept me fairly relaxed out there. Q. When did you feel at your ease? CLARKE LUTTON: Probably my second shot. First shot was a bit nerve-wracking if I'm honest. But second shot, I managed to just get kind of into the feel of things and just carried on from there. Q. Tell me, I gather you've got a bit of history here, so you know how the winds can blow and what to expect. CLARKE LUTTON: I grew up here. I actually started the game out here. I was here for 11 years. Yeah, the wind can fairly blow around here, so I was quite happy to get a good, solid round in. Hopefully it doesn't blow too hard tomorrow but I think it's forecast to get stronger and stronger. We'll just see how it goes. Q. Does that mean your father was in the oil industry out here? CLARKE LUTTON: He was in the oil industry, yeah. He was in recruitment for the oil and gas industry, so he dragged us out here, sadly. Q. A part of the world you enjoy? I know you play on the MENA Tour and you won last year, as well, didn't you? CLARKE LUTTON: Yeah, I've been out in the Middle East now 15 years, so it's a part of the world I really enjoy playing golf in. As you say, I played on the MENA Tour the last couple years and just enjoy being out here. It's good fun. Q. And a different kind of style in life, with McArthur and others, you can tell what living out here is like. CLARKE LUTTON: Yeah, it's a different lifestyle out here, completely different lifestyle. It's almost false but it's good fun all the same. Q. Golf-wise, ambitions? CLARKE LUTTON: Golf-wise, it's great out here to play golf. For me, the dream is to be playing week-in, week-out but I'm going to keep focusing on Asia just this year, which is where I've got kind of status, so just see how that goes and see if I can progress my way up.
