Script:

SOUNDBITE (English) Lee Westwood:

"Very important, I couldn't feel my hip action today and I really struggled especially early on, but I only made one bogey, some crucial birdies at the end there on 17 and 18 and if I don't make them then I am five behind. So, it was nice to birdie the last two holes and finish with a bit of momentum."

SOUNDBITE (English) Lee Westwood:

"You can sort of get into a false mindset where you can convince yourself that you are not playing very well but they got off to a hot start and putting it close. Both of them were playing well for the first two holes so two pars felt like I was going a bit slow - and I was within six feet at the first and a decent chance at the second. So, you have to be patient, I have been in this position often enough so I will still play your own game and just take one shot at a time."

SOUNDBITE (English) Bernd Wiesberger:

"It was nice today I came out to a good start, five birdies in the first seven, and I felt very comfortable out there and I didn't let the bogey bother me too much and so it was good work I had a couple of close putts there in the middle of the back nine which was not frustrating but I thought it was going in but a good finish with some birdies to end the round."
