” It’s always nice to play in a tournament like this.he admits. There will be a lot of people, like every year. Generally speaking, the courses are harder when it comes to a Rolex Series. In Dubai, at the beginning of the year, the course was far from easy. In Scotland, we didn’t have too much wind this year, so I didn’t find it too complicated. From what I felt, we’ll say that the hardest of the three is the one in Dubai. The preparation of the course makes it a real test of golf. Then, the field of players is huge so when the guys are in shape… A guy like McIlroy, when he plays well, it’s very difficult to go after him… It’s nice to face these players, to do the best you can, to see where we place… In short, it’s rather exciting. »
