ITALIAN OPENOctober 15, 2017Nino BertasioParco Reale di Monza, Italy Q. 7-under 64, did you see that coming? NINO BERTASIO: I've been playing well lately so to be honest I'm not really surprised. Q. 6-under through ten, what was going through your mind? NINO BERTASIO: Yeah, eagle on 14 was actually obviously a big help. But it also made me very nervous because I knew from there on, it's on me. If I start making bogeys, you know, it's me messing it up. Which I think showed on 17 and on 18, I was a little nervous. You know, just pleased to finish the round with 7-under and doing it with Jon, he was great today, he helped me out. Every time I hit a good shot, he kept telling me, "Keep it going, keep it going." It was nice. Q. How particularly pleasing was it to hole that putt on 17? NINO BERTASIO: It's big. 17, it's not a long hole, but you know, and I had a wedge in my hand, and on 15, it was gusting into the wind. We had a similar yardage, and the last thing you want to do is leave it short if the bunker because you know you're going to get a plug lie out of these bunkers. You know, I gave it a little extra, some adrenaline, pulled it left. Big kick to the left, and a terrible lie. So yeah, walking off with a bogey, and having to make, I think it was a 9-foot putt, felt actually quite good at the end. Then yeah, making four at the last was all I needed. Q. To finish off the round like you did, how nervous were you when you teed off this morning, bearing in mind your position? NINO BERTASIO: No, I wasn't. I was more nervous yesterday. I didn't have a great warmup. I was feeling tired. It's my ninth week in a row. I'm exhausted; I can't play golf anymore. This morning, I had a good warmup. We figured out what we did wrong yesterday with my coach. I was aiming a little right and missing everything left, backing off, and we had a good warm up this morning and I was very comfortable.
