There were so many people screaming for Nick it was unbelievable. I thought, what country are we in? And he just won last week, I haven't won in three years, root for me, not for him.
The Independent (Robinson Holloway)

I'm pleased with the way I played this week. Conditions were really tough, and I wasn't really comfortable on the greens. I was really grinding on a lot of putts.
