JOHNNIE WALKER CHAMPIONSHIP AT GLENEAGLES


August 31, 2008


Ross Fisher


GLENEAGLES, SCOTLAND

Q. Starting the day off nine thoughts off the third place you needed. We all thought Ross Fisher is done; doesn't look like you did.
ROSS FISHER: No, felt like I played quite well all week but just haven't really scored, how I've played. First I played well and let it slip, same with second day, and the same with yesterday really.
So I just wanted to go out and try to putt in a good performance and to start birdie eagle, got off to a great start and had some chances and didn't quite take them but picked up a couple more, got out, I think I was 4-under going out.

Q. And did you start thinking, hey, this might be on?
ROSS FISHER: I just wanted to, you know, shoot as good a score as I can. I knew that coming into this week, I would have had to finish I think first or second and Ollie had to finish way out of here.
All credit to Ollie. I watched him finish Friday and I thought he showed a tremendous amount of courage and guts: To hit the shot did he on 12 and eagle 12 and 16; up-and-down on 17. He deserved to make the cut and deserves to be on the team.
Thought I would give it one last go, and a shame to not quite have a bogey-free round, one poor shot I hit all day, and nice to birdie the last to finish on a positive note.

Q. Chance of a wildcard; a lot of players in the mix obviously?
ROSS FISHER: Yeah, I think personally I probably would have had to play my way in which is very unlikely.
As for a wildcard, who knows. You can't count out Martin Kaymer. He's won twice and was very unfortunate this week. It was a struggle for all of the guys in contention. Obviously myself, I just wanted to put in a good performance which I've done.
Hopefully Nick was watching that and I've put in a good performance but there's a lot of guys with wildcards, Clarke, Poulter, Casey so it's up in the air. Personally I'd be very surprised if he picked me but we'll see.
