Q. Obviously you did a lot right today. Run us through what you did particularly well.
ADRIAN OTAEGUI: Yeah, it was a good round for me today. I'm very happy with how everything went. I didn't put myself in too much trouble. Just tried to be in the fairway as much as I could, so I took many fairways, many greens in regulations.
Even though sometimes you end up far from the hole, but the green is always a good place.
I'm very pleased with my back nine, as well, with four birdies. Very pleased with my 4-under today.
Q. What was the best moments?
ADRIAN OTAEGUI: I think the first putt that I holed on No. 6 was very good. It was a very good roll, and obviously it's good to see the ball going in. It gives you a little bit of confidence for the next few long putts.
I think that was a good one.
To be honest, after that I felt very confident and comfortable with my swing. I was driving the ball well. I was in a good position on many occasions.
Q. It was getting more difficult, wasn't it?
ADRIAN OTAEGUI: Yeah, I think when we teed off, I would say it was like a one-club wind, and now when we finished it was really a two-club wind. The 16th, second shot was really a lot of wind. That was a good 3-iron, as well. It was getting a little bit windier.
Q. Obviously it's been a very interesting season because you've played so well but then you got the suspension, then you've had to come back. Has that motivated you to do really well here, given you've got that Ryder Cup in your mind going ahead?
ADRIAN OTAEGUI: Yeah, I'm always motivated. If you're not, just stay home. But yeah, it's been a little few weeks I stayed at home. Good to be back and good to get in a bit of rhythm again. I really enjoyed my round today.
Q. Are you glad to see the back of the LIV thing, if you like, the suspension and the fine and all of rest of it done with?
ADRIAN OTAEGUI: I'm happy about my round today. That's what I'm thinking about now.
