UBS HONG KONG OPEN


November 15, 2012


Mardan Mamat


FANLING, HONG KONG

Q.  3‑under today?
MARDAN MAMAT:  Yeah, very pleased.  I've been hitting the ball very good, and today I holed a couple of putts.  Yeah, it was quite good.

Q.  Looking at the leaderboard, the veterans are showing the way with Miguel and Zhang; showing that there's still many years of golf left in you.
MARDAN MAMAT:  Yeah, I'm very fortunate that we can play and compete in this level.  I'm very pleased with that.  Yeah, to have a lot of the young and old people around the leaderboard, I think that also motivates me.

Q.  Guys are also winning Majors, but why do you think you have an advantage over these guys?
MARDAN MAMAT:  I think I've been playing so many years, I think I have a lot of experience, so I know especially how to handle the pressure when I need to.  So I think that's the key.

Q.  With four events left on the Tour, where do you hope to see yourself?
MARDAN MAMAT:  I hope that I can get in the Top‑10.  That's my target for the last four events and to play well and get in the Top‑10.  I think I'm very happy with that.

Q.  Do you think the weather plays a part, compared to last week in Singapore, it's a little bit cooler now in Hong Kong.
MARDAN MAMAT:  Yeah, it's so much nicer here.  I think it's quite windy today, so the course is not playing easy.  Some holes and some pins are very difficult.  So I think weather‑wise, it's so much better.

Q.  What is the key to doing well here to get a low score?
MARDAN MAMAT:  Keep the ball in play and make sure you're on the right side of the pin.  I have a lot of good memories of playing this golf course, and especially '94, '93, playing with the amateurs; a lot of good memories here so I hope that I can stay on to the weekend.
