ALFRED DUNHILL LINKS CHAMPIONSHIPSeptember 25, 2013Padraig HarringtonST. ANDREWS, SCOTLAND Q.ﾃつ Youﾃや况e won here twice, would be nice to make it a hat-trick of victories this week? Pﾃδ．RAIG HARRINGTON:ﾃつ Absolutely, Iﾃや况e won both the individual and the team event twice, so itﾃや囘 be nice to get another win on the board. And obviously these golf coursesdo suit me ‑‑ hopefully things will click into place this week. Q. Youﾃや决e an avowed lover of links golf, how do the three courses here compare? Pﾃδ．RAIG HARRINGTON: Theyﾃや决e all different. St Andrews is obviously the Home of Golf, so thatﾃや冱 the one the guys all really look forward to playing. But the other two are both beautiful courses in their own right. Depending on the conditions, the wind and the day, it can be tough and usually we have a few chances early on the week, and Sunday pin positions will be a bit tighter.ﾃつ Carnoustie is always a very tough golf course. It's a golf course you've got to respect.ﾃつ You're always trying to post a solid score and not lose your tournament out there. Kingsbarns is a joy to play, and given the right conditions, it is probably the easiest.ﾃつ I think at times you can get an awkward wind that will take the par 5s out of reach, but once the par 5s are in reach, you can make some nice birdies. So thatﾃや冱 the course you want to take advantage of if you can. Q. ﾃつYouﾃや况e just played nine holes, what sort of shape is your game in? Pﾃδ．RAIG HARRINGTON: I've been happy with my game all year, and it hasn't done me any good.ﾃつ But Iﾃや冦 not happy with it now; so weﾃや冤l see if my results can improve. Iﾃや况e talked in the past about getting the fear back, because thatﾃや冱 when Iﾃや况e tended to play my best golf, and that may have happened.ﾃつ Q.ﾃつ Youﾃや决e playing with your great friend JP McManus again, is he excited about the week ahead? Pﾃδ．RAIG HARRINGTON:ﾃつ He most certainly is. You know, it would be nice to try to get another one, so we look forward to it.ﾃつ It's good for me and keeps me competitive during the week; if I'm not doing well in the individual tournament, I'm obviously focusing on the team event and trying to get us up there.ﾃつ Certainly helps you keep a good mindset all the way through the tournament. ﾃつﾃつﾃつﾃつﾃつﾃつﾃつﾃつﾃつﾃつﾃつ End of FastScripts |
