UBS HONG KONG OPENDecember 8, 2016Steve LewtonFanling, Hong Kong Q. Steve, how good a start is this at Fanling? STEVE LEWTON: Oh, brilliant. I played really solid tee-to-green. I just played, well, I missed a few putts, but I gave myself a lot of looks today which was nice. Q. And an eagle 2 in the process. STEVE LEWTON: Yeah, that was even better. I just bogeyed the previous hole and then hit 6-iron from 202 I think, and it was on-line, but I thought it might be really short but it just reached, so very fortunate. Q. Did you see it drop? STEVE LEWTON: Yes, I did. I was a bit excited when it went in. Q. I imagine there was excitement which when you see your name moving up that leaderboard on day one, as well. STEVE LEWTON: Yeah, it's exciting. Great place, Hong Kong, love being here, and long may it continue. Q. It's a tricky week. Do you put all thoughts of that aside and just get on with the game? STEVE LEWTON: Yeah, trying to save my Asian Tour card for the year. Definitely a good start and see how we go from here. Q. How are you coping in this part of the world as a nice Englishman? STEVE LEWTON: Yeah, it's different. Took me awhile to get used to the weather. First couple years was difficult, playing in 90-degree heat most of the time but the humidity was the difficult thing and the grass was difficult, different types of grass, takes a while to get used to chipping and putting. Once you get your head around that, you have a chance. Q. And once you get away from the golf, it's quite a life, isn't it? STEVE LEWTON: It's very different. It's great food, great people and fantastic places to visit. Q. Which means saving and securing this card means even more? STEVE LEWTON: Yeah, exactly. Need to be pushing the next three days, so see how we get on: Q. You'll get on great. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports   |
