McDowell: WGC-HSBC Champions performance 'pleasing'

Sunday, November 09 2014 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Player reaction following the third round of the WGC-HSBC Champions event in Shanghai, China.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Graeme McDowell:

    "Moderately pleased. Hit the ball better than I did yesterday. Hit much more fairways. Iron play was a little more solid. Just tricky, you know, cold, a little bit of overnight rain made this golf course pretty long. All in all, very happy. Very happy to be in control, in the lead going into the final day of a WGC against a world class field. No complaints, you know, I enjoyed my round today, Bubba (Watson) was awfully impressive off the tee today, impressive in general and Ian (Poulter) is always so much fun to play with, great player, so looking forward to the challenge tomorrow and, you know, like I say, in good shape."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Bubba Watson:

    "Oh, yes. You know, obviously a three-putt... couple of three-putts today and a double bogey... that's sad, but you know the birdies down the stretch really helped out, especially on the last hole. It makes dinner taste a lot better."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Martin Kaymer:

    "Yeah, in 2011 it worked out well, but you know, the conditions are a little tougher this year. But for me it was really important to put myself in position to have a chance tomorrow. Obviously, you need a little help from Graeme (McDowell) tomorrow in order to win, but I'm playing really well and that's all I can do. If he (McDowell) is better tomorrow, or maybe a coule of the other guys come up, then it is what it is."
