Q. Well played today, Tyrrell. Can you just talk about your opening round?
TYRRELL HATTON: Pretty steady day. Little bit of a slow start, but holed a long putt on 16, and that kind of got me going. Yeah, three birdies in a row was nice. A little bit on the tenth hole of the day, but for Saudi golf not a bad score.
Q. Last week you had a good finish. How is your game feeling going into this week?
TYRRELL HATTON: Well, it's end of the season, so I feel a bit tired, but I'm still out there trying my best. Yeah, I hit some nice shots today and hoping that continues over the next three days.
Q. Last year you finished tied third, great finish in your debut. How does it feel to be back in this tournament, and how is the course looking since last year?
TYRRELL HATTON: Yeah, it's good to be back. The course is in good condition. Greens are rolling nice. The course gives you a lot of opportunities. Hopefully you can hole the putts, and it will be a great week.
Q. You said this is your last event of the year. Any goals for this week and wanting to finish the year out?
TYRRELL HATTON: Well, naturally, every tournament you start, you're trying to win. Yeah, I'd love to win this week, and it would cap off a good year for me. Yeah, I'll be trying my best to do that.
Q. Everyone's been very complimentary about the greens this time. I think they've had a mass improvement. Would you like to comment on that?
TYRRELL HATTON: Yeah, the greens have had a lot of work since we were last here, and it's great to see. I think everyone's a lot happier with how it's playing this year.
