The putt at the 17th was the biggest putt of my career.

It was very difficult for me out there today and I felt that I was dragging my partner back on the back nine. That putt saved me and my team.

I didn't feel any pressure as Rui was not playing her best and I was trying to help her out and concentrate on my own game. When she was down, I just brought myself up.
