Caolan Rafferty


Q. Winning your match, happy with a is this?

CAOLAN RAFFERTY: Yeah, happy. 2-down with five to go and turned it around, so was kind of happy to do that.

Q. What goes through your mind when you're two holes down and running out of holes?

CAOLAN RAFFERTY: I was lucky to have an experienced man on the bag, Collm Campbell caddied for me (Warrenpoint). He said, par on the way in is good. Lucky enough picked up a couple of birdies on the way in. But no, he was a big help there, so got me over the line.

Q. I heard you just having a chat, you're working as a greenskeeper and you feel like it's given you a renewed love for the game?

CAOLAN RAFFERTY: Yeah, my days off now are going to play golf which I always wanted to do. I played golf all the time there for four or five years and now to go on your days off, you go and you enjoy it and you're not as work, so it's not a chore anymore. So yeah, it's back to enjoying golf the way I used to do it.

Q. Through in the next round. What's the focus now?

CAOLAN RAFFERTY: It's just one step at a time. It's a golf course I actually really like. It's fair for everyone. You don't have to hit it long. You just have to plot your way around. Just keep doing what I'm doing and being gritty and annoying people as much as I can and hopefully be here for another few days.
