THE OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP

July 16, 2015

Tyrrell Hatton

ST. ANDREWS, SCOTLAND

Q. Your reaction to your finish?
TYRRELL HATTON: Fairly disappointed, actually. Played really well out there. Back nine was quite difficult. 17 is still a bit of a sore one, but 2 under is my best score in a major, so there's some positives there, so hopefully I can have a good day tomorrow and go from there.

Q. Everybody is talking about 17. Just talk about that hole.
TYRRELL HATTON: Yeah, difficult.

Q. You're obviously taking a lot of positives out of today?
TYRRELL HATTON: Yeah, that's what I've got to try and do. As I said, I did play pretty well today, so hopefully I'll keep that form going tomorrow.

Q. (Inaudible.)
TYRRELL HATTON: Well, it's always good to play with someone who's playing well. You kind of get a bit of momentum off it, I guess. Unfortunately for him, he didn't have a great finish, either. But he played well today, and I'm sure hopefully we both do well tomorrow.

Q. What happened to you on 17?
TYRRELL HATTON: I hit it slightly left off the tee. Everyone is hitting it left down there today, I think, especially with the wind direction. I had what I sort was a decent lie in the rough and tried to get it up close to the green and club sort of snagged a little. It was 80 yards short in the thick rough, played a great shot to the back of the green and rolled it down there to two feet and hit a good putt, hits a spike mark and lips out and made double. Yeah, that kind of knocked the wind out of my sails. And 18, I wasn't very happy.

Q. Compare this to your experience here five years ago?
TYRRELL HATTON: Yeah, last time was a different experience. Got pretty unlucky with the draw. Today was a lot easier than 2010, but the back nine was difficult today.
