VOLVO GOLF CHAMPIONS


January 20, 2012


Charl Schwartzel


GEORGE, SOUTH AFRICA

Q.  What a difference 24 hours can make.  What was different in your mind today?
CHARL SCHWARTZEL:  I went to sleep and never hit a ball again before I teed off.  Just walked straight to the tee.  I can't win this tournament 3‑putting like I am.  I'm hitting the ball well enough but I need to start making the putts.

Q.  The leader yesterday got off to a very fast start and things seem to be bunching up on the weekend?
CHARL SCHWARTZEL:  Yeah, it's not a walk over‑‑ but if you hit the ball good, you can make a lot of birdies.  Looks like a couple of guys got off to a bad start, which can happen, and others obviously got off to a good start.  You pretty much can't think about what the other guys are doing, because some holes are quite hard.  You have to keep making your birdies, and I don't think the scoring will be too low.

Q.  Is the golf course soft enough, do you think, for you to really attack?
CHARL SCHWARTZEL:  Well, it certainly was when I teed off this morning.  If you hit good iron shots into the greens, the way the balls were stopping‑‑ I think if the greens get firm, it's going to become a whole different ballgame.

Q.  How did you enjoy playing with the Amateurs?
CHARL SCHWARTZEL:  We had loads of fun.  I think he's the best amateur I've had for a very, very long time.  He played really good golf.  I thought we were going to win it at 15‑under.

Q.  But you're not sure now?
CHARL SCHWARTZEL:  No.  The guys are on 14‑under, quite a lot of holes to go.  You have par 5s coming in.  With the professionals playing with, I don't think we will win now.

Q.  But you enjoyed the format, a nice change?
CHARL SCHWARTZEL:  It's nice that we have something to play for there.  We had lots of fun.
