Q. How were you able to gather yourself today and get that victory?
ANTOINE ROZNER: I don't know, I think I was just trying to play a good round of golf, solid golf, and, yeah, kind of like a stroke play round, really not give any shot away. So I did that really well on the front nine and then I think I played very good on the front nine there, I was like 3, 4-under at the turn and then, yeah, I was starting to feel a little bit nervous on the back nine at some point, I don't know, I think I was 3-up, and yeah I'm just really happy that I won that match.
Q. Before you hit that wonderful, Phil Mickelson-like flop shot there on 18, you showed the putt that you won with in Qatar a couple of weeks ago. How much confidence does a win like that on the European Tour carry over to a match like today?
ANTOINE ROZNER: It's completely different though, you know, and it's never easy to come back after a win also, so the good thing for me it's a match play format, so we have to start over every day, so I think that's a good thing. Yeah, I don't know, I think I'm just trying to play good golf and it's the strongest field I ever played against, so I'm enjoying it, I had a lot of fun today out there and, yeah, I'm very happy.
Q. What a great match against Bryson. You played 18 holes, lots of twists and turns, but that par you made on 14 I thought may have been the turning point. It look like Bryson had just birdied a hole, was coming after you, and you just stunned everyone with a 26-footer.
ANTOINE ROZNER: Yeah, I think that was a pretty good putt. I was lucky enough that he showed me the way, because he had literally had the exact same putt. So he had shown me a good line and, yeah, it was a really good putt and obviously to stay up 2-up at that point was key. I think I made a really good up-and-down as well on 8. That was a long putt as well. So, no, I made some good pars today and that probably made the difference.
Q. Such a well played match. This has to be one of the stronger fields at an event you competed in, we didn't know if you were going to be here awhile. I got to tell you, for an initial appearance you made one heck of a debut.
ANTOINE ROZNER: Thanks a lot, I'm just trying to play good golf, I was trying to come out here and play a good round, shoot under par, shoot a good score, and I think I did that. Yeah, I did that pretty well, I played really solid on the front nine and being 3-up after 12 holes was a good enough lead for me, so, yeah, I'm very happy.
