Watson achieves 'career goal' with victory

Monday, November 10 2014 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Reaction from winner Bubba Watson, joint third place finisher Rickie Fowler and Thorbjorn Olesen, who finished joint sixth, after the final round of the WGC-HSBC Champions tournament in Shanghai, China on Sunday (9 November).

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Bubba Watson:

    "It means a lot. To win outside the US, it's one of my goals in my career. My goal has always been to get ten wins, now I've got seven... win a World Golf Championship, one of our premier events, again outside the US, this means a lot. This is very special to me. This one is going to be... go down for a while for me. Not because of the great shots that I hit, but because of just winning here."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Bubba Watson:

    "You know, a tough shot on 16 for me, because of the way the lie was, 17, just a bad, bad hole... and then 18 hit it in the bunker and then, out of nowhere, hole it you know, so... when I messed up on 17 with the bunker shot and then hit the perfect bunker shot on 18, it's weird. When you add that up, you know, (Tim) Clark was in there tight, had a chance to win and then I hole it before he putts. And then, again, same bunker, hit not quite as good a bunker shot, but the putt was exactly how the first bunker shot was. So I knew the break, I knew how fast it was and somehow it went in."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Rickie Fowler:

    "Oh, you know, I'm pleased with the week. Happy to be in contention, coming right back out, first event of the year... yeah, just a few mistakes kept me from getting the win, but like I said, I'm happy with some good, solid play."
