DUBAI DESERT CLASSIC


February 3, 2008


Martin Kaymer


DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

Q. What did you hit for the eagle?
MARTIN KAYMER: 3-iron.

Q. From what distance?
MARTIN KAYMER: 218 metres.

Q. So when you had that shot in your mind, you were going for the eagle?
MARTIN KAYMER: Yeah, of course. I want to win.

Q. But there was no defence in that shot?
MARTIN KAYMER: I thought eagle or bogey. I was not thinking about par.

Q. Great way to finish.
MARTIN KAYMER: It was a good shot, pure golf shot, yeah.

Q. And a second after winning in Abu Dhabi would be a fantastic three weeks for you, wouldn't it?
MARTIN KAYMER: Last week I didn't make the cut but there were a lot of things after the win so I was a little confused on Monday and Tuesday.
But it was really good that I had the weekend off, actually, that I could think about different stuff, and especially the win, it gave me a lot of confidence for the whole season.

Q. Interesting to see now where you've moved up in the World Rankings.
MARTIN KAYMER: Really looking forward to go to the Match Play now. I had a good three weeks so far. I was practising a lot when I was in America in the winter, so I was expecting that I'm playing okay. But of course, I was never expecting that I would win the tournament.

Q. How do you feel seeing your name up there?
MARTIN KAYMER: It was so much fun to play with Ernie. He was so relaxed, very nice to me. We talked a little bit. It was just a nice golf yesterday. That was actually the best golfer I've had the last two years.

Q. Further step on getting to Kentucky in September, too.
MARTIN KAYMER: I'm not looking so far down. I heard it from my manager that I can play in Augusta now, so that's unbelievable, too.

Q. How does that feel?
MARTIN KAYMER: I don't know yet. I mean, it was always a dream and now I can play there.

Q. Will you play a few rounds before you get there, too?
MARTIN KAYMER: I don't know yet. I just finished. I don't know, just try to fix my thoughts now.
