Q. Are you mentally prepared to win again?
ANGEL CABRERA: Well, this is the very first day. I have to go step by step, day by day. This is a great tournament, but I was very lucky and I won my first tournament this year in Europe and in England, which is the birth of the game of golf. But this is just another tournament, another week. But every week, I go out and I try to win.

Q. Things are very bad in your country financially, does that have any effect on your family?
ANGEL CABRERA: Yes, of course, it has affected me as everybody other Argentinian. I am Argentinian and I don't like the feeling of seeing my country going through such a bad time.
Q. Has Tiger ever said anything to you about your driver or your long game?
ANGEL CABRERA: Tiger talks very little on the golf course. All he says is, "Good shot," that's it. Nothing else.
As far as my long game, in the States, there are many other things that you need to do well in the States, not just being a good and long hitter. You've got to hit it long, but you've got to hit well.
Q. Do you like Valderrama? Do you look forward to playing this week?

Q. How does it feel coming back to Spain and playing here?
ANGEL CABRERA: Coming back to Spain after having been travelling all around the world all year round, it makes us feel very well. I feel much more comfortable. We have the same language, very similar food, even better food, and that helps a lot.
