SOUNDBITE (English) Matteo Manassero, PGA Championship winner 2013:

"No, (my memories) they are very, very fresh. I can remember pretty much everything and this place as you said, brings back amazing memories. As soon as I get here I feel really good, We haven't had the best of the weather these few days, but I'm always very happy to walk this course and walk this land in general."

SOUNDBITE (English) Matteo Manassero, PGA Championship winner 2013:

"Yeah, yeah. That's fair to say. I'm playing better golf and I'm more confident about my game. It's like everything feels more solid. I know the few things that I have to take care about, that I have to do and if I do those, my game is there and I can perform well. I'm still missing a few things here and there, to have four solid rounds of golf, and that has been the problem lately, but I'm happy to be in form again."
