BMW PGA CHAMPIONSHIPMay 25, 2017Lee WestwoodSurrey, England LEE WESTWOOD: Don't really know what to make of the scoring with the resign. The greens, there's really not any excuse or issues on these greens. They are really good surfaces. But I guess nobody is used to the breaks that's on them, when you re-lay greens. I expected the scoring to be a bit lower, but they are firm, as well. So it's tough to get it near the pin I guess. If you start missing the greens in the wrong spots, it becomes tricky and if you start to hit it in the rough, I guess it's going to be a difficult golf course. I think 70 is a pretty good start. Q. Tomorrow, numbers should drop again with weather like this, shouldn't it, people getting used to it? LEE WESTWOOD: Don't know. The golf course might firm out. It was pretty firm today. If you hit in the rough, even the semi-rough, it's hard to stop the ball on the greens -- you don't usually have to stop the ball on the green from the fairway. So I haven't really got any answers for you. Q. Do you feel as though you're playing a new golf course? LEE WESTWOOD: A little bit, yeah. Certainly a new golf course compared to the one we've played for the last seven or eight years, and a better one than that. Fairer. Q. What's the biggest sort of change? Is it the depth of the bunkers are sort of leveled out? LEE WESTWOOD: Yeah, the greens are a much better surface. There's no guessing on them. And they have taken a few bunkers out in places, which was sensible. It had got too bunkered. Q. Left of 16 being one? LEE WESTWOOD: Yeah, I mean, 16 plays like it should do now, really, I think. There's lots of places out there where there's a huge improvement. There's no changes out there that I would think are for the worst. Everything is for the better. Q. It's your 24th consecutive appearance in this event. 24th time lucky? LEE WESTWOOD: Is that the old saying? Who knows. I'm playing well. I would like to think I'll be in contention at the end of the week. We'll just see. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports   |
