THE 145TH OPEN


July 16, 2016


Tyrrell Hatton


Troon, South Ayrshire, Scotland

Q. Tyrrell, first thing, you qualified the week of (inaudible). How did that feel today?
TYRRELL HATTON: It was nice. Obviously last year I played the Saturday here but that was because of the second round, so it was nice to be playing a third round on a Saturday, and I played really nicely out there.

Q. (Inaudible).
TYRRELL HATTON: Yeah, the back nine was obviously playing really tough. I was struggling a little bit with my swing on the front nine; just not feeling comfortable and ball striking wasn't great. Although I'd given myself a few chances, and then just on the back nine I played really well, just found something, I guess. I think that's the best I've ever played, especially in those wind conditions. Usually I struggle with wind in throughout the left. It's obviously a tough wind for a right-handed golfer anyway, but I felt like I dealt with that really well.

Q. On the 8th (inaudible). What were you doing?
TYRRELL HATTON: That hole has been very kind to me, and I'll happily take another 2 there tomorrow.

Q. (Inaudible) in itself, how big an achievement is that?
TYRRELL HATTON: Well, it's been a good week so far. Hopefully I can go out there tomorrow and play well. There's obviously a lot of great players this week, and hopefully I can just have a good one tomorrow.

Q. (Inaudible) if you're in red figures come the final day, do you think there's any chance?
TYRRELL HATTON: I don't know. I think there's a big gap between them and third place anyway. But I'm not too worried about that. I've just got to focus on my own game and hopefully I can play as well as I did on that back nine tomorrow, and this time around hopefully take my chances on the greens.

Q. (Inaudible).
TYRRELL HATTON: Well, you know, if I sort of make some putts, then that changes things. Hopefully I can climb the leaderboard and we'll see what happens.
