ABU DHABI HSBC GOLF CHAMPIONSHIP


January 15, 2015


Gregory Bourdy


ABU DHABI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

Q.  Tell us how good that is to start 2015.
GREGORY BOURDY:  Yeah, it's good after two months off.  It's nice to come back, play a nice tournament like this one.  It's a great place on a beautiful course and I started very well.  So yeah, everything good.

Q.  You never know what to expect from the first round of a new season.  But you probably would have been happy to have made par in a sense.
GREGORY BOURDY:  Yeah, I think I practiced well before to start well.  We never know; of course, even if we practice hard, we never know if we are going to play well.
But I think I was ready for playing well this week, and that's what I did today.

Q.  So what has been the practice regime?
GREGORY BOURDY:  Actually I stopped a few weeks because I needed it, and I had an injury, as well.  In December, I played just a few games.  I practiced hard just after the second of January, last week in Abu Dhabi.  So it was a good week with my coach and physical trainer.  Yeah, it was good to start and I think I'm feeling very good.

Q.  What did you do to yourself?  What was the injury this time?
GREGORY BOURDY:  Actually we practiced more the putting the last few days, but I think it was a key, for example, like today.  But I played very well my long game.  But if you hole the putts, it's easier, as well.  I missed a few.

Q.  But your injury, what was that?
GREGORY BOURDY:  My injury was‑‑ I forgot the name‑‑ on the shoulder, left shoulder.  So left shoulder, yeah, it was a bit painful.  So I needed just to have a little break.  But we work hard, as well, with my physio, and I feel much better now.

Q.  And the shoulder was as a result of playing?
GREGORY BOURDY:  Just of playing.  Yeah, we play a lot during the year, and we do some physical training, as well.  So I think it's not unusual to get some injuries sometimes.
