SOUNDBITE: (English) Justin Rose:

"Obviously, I've known, I've certainly been aware of the fact that I haven't played well here. I looked at my strategy and I changed it a little bit. Holes like six I don't play aggressively anymore. Maybe seven hit three-wood off the tee. I think I just try and get the ball in play off the tee a lot more than I have in the past. We'll see how that works. If that will remain the same. Will that work well on a Thursday as well as a Sunday? But it paid off today. I was pleased with the way I played in terms of I played the par-fives even-par and still got a good round of golf going. So that tells me, tomorrow, if I take care of the par-fives, I can keep some momentum going with that."
