    Martin Kaymer and Henrik Stenson look ahead to the Dubai Desert Classic in the United Arab Emirates on Tuesday.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) Martin Kaymer:
    "Yeah, obviously I've had a little more than a week now and on that Monday, fortunately it was raining in Dubai, so I couldn't play golf, so I had some time to reflect. My dad and my brother, they were there, so we talked a little bit about it and they asked me some questions and, you know, questions that you usually don't ask yourself, because you're not on the outside, you don't see that obvious sometimes and then all of a sudden you have to face the truth and admit a few things have happened to you and then you just need to figure out why those things happened and then you actually afterwards - it sounds a little silly - but afterwards you're quite happy that you didn't win. Because at the end of the day I would have, yeah, I would have gotten a little more money, more world ranking points, another trophy, but I wouldn't have gained as much as I did now."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Henrik Stenson:
    "Yeah, it was a good finish on Sunday, four straight birdies and a close shot for eagle at the last, so that kind of saved the week and probably put me from 35th to 13th or something in the last four holes, so it was a good finish and I got a decent result with me, so that's always good..."

    SOUNDBITE (English) Henrik Stenson:
    "Yeah, these tournaments mean a lot to me. All of the three events in the Middle East, I've had good results and I won two out of the three and of course I want to perform well, back here at Emirates Golf Club this week, which I called home for so many years, so it's great to be back and I'm going to try my hardest, don't worry about that."
