THE IRISH OPENJune 22, 2014Mikko IlonenFOTA ISLAND, IRELAND Q. Are you very, very proud of your performance across the whole of this week, wire‑to‑wire? MIKKO ILONEN: Wire‑to‑wire, it was very much Martin Kaymer‑inspired win. I sent a message to him last week that I really enjoyed watching golf. I very rarely enjoy watching golf; I would rather play golf, but Martin's win inspired me. It was nice to keep that lead all the way. Q. Dare I say there was the similarity, not only leading but the way you held yourself and you seemed to be walking tall and very assured. MIKKO ILONEN: I made sure that I paced myself good and I'm not too quick with things and keep my head up no matter what happens, and I kept on doing the same thing all the time, tried to hit the fairway. Hit a lot of greens today and kept okay pace with my putting. Q. You've won in Scandinavia, but this is something special, as well, isn't it? MIKKO ILONEN: This is slightly bigger. I look back on the 18th green and I can't believe how many people there were. It's nice to see. It was a very humble moment.
