WGC ACCENTURE MATCH PLAY CHAMPIONSHIP


February 24, 2007


Henrik Stenson


TUCSON, ARIZONA

Q. That was a hell of a match.
HENRIK STENSON: Unbelievable. Unbelievable. Never experienced anything like it, not when I come out on top at least. Both of us just played solid today I'd say. I was a couple down early and managed to turn it around there with the birdies on 9, 10, 11 to go 1-up, then he got back on 12.
I hit probably one of the few bad shots I hit all day second shot from middle of the fairway on 13, and he got up-and-down and I three-putted from long-range.
Made a good birdie putt on 15 to go all square again, and then ended up with a slight right to left downhiller on 16, hit a decent putt, and it just slid away a little bit. Hit a poor second putt, missed -- went 1-down again.
17, he sort of made a blunder, was in the bunker, and I gave myself a good birdie chance. Missed that and he missed his par putt. All square coming down the last. I hit a really bad drive into the shit and had to take a drop.
He laid up or got a second shot just short of the green, and I just took dead aim with pitching wedge and hit a really good shot from the position I was in. He hit a good chip and just missed from four or five feet, four feet.
I don't know, exhausted.

Q. A bit of a roller coaster out there?
HENRIK STENSON: Definitely. I mean, as I said, we both played good and it was a good match. It's just when you're back and forth -- I was hoping at least I'd get a chance on extra holes.

Q. But you didn't give up after that drive. It was in a horrible spot there.
HENRIK STENSON: Yeah, it was just under a bush, yeah. It just shows you, you never give up.
