RUSSELL WEIR: Well, I think the fact that I've contracted diabetes has made me a little bit uncoordinated, just up-and-down, good days, bad days.
Q. How long have you had that?
RUSSELL WEIR: That's been almost two years now.
Q. Do you take medication?
RUSSELL WEIR: Yeah, I just take tablets. Moderation and everything.
Q. What does it affect?)
RUSSELL WEIR: Well, I was talking to Jim McAllister, he says it does affect your coordination, but I think it's more the fact that I really haven't been playing particularly well. I've always been meaning to go by and see Mr. Torrance but he's obviously very busy.
Q. When was that?
RUSSELL WEIR: A good number of years ago. I see him at tournaments but he's too busy.
Q. When was the last time you were in a Press Centre interview?
RUSSELL WEIR: It would probably be the Scottish, Gleneagles. It was a Tour event, I believe I shot 68 or something like that. I think that would be last time. More years than I care to remember.
I don't feel quite good enough today, funnily enough. I think just tension. In a big tournament, you get tensed up, your legs start going a little bit.
Probably just excited more than anything, I think.
Q. Have you been in a field with Nicklaus and Watson before.
RUSSELL WEIR: Haven't been across to America playing in any of these PGA events, no.
