It's been two years since I won, so it's great to be back in the winning circle. And to do it here in Perth is really special.

It's great to be nervous with three holes to go in a tournament because it means you're up there somewhere.

They (Els and Baker-Finch) told me I was going to love the golf course and I do. It’s such a great track and it’s one of my favourites so I’ll definitely be coming back
