Quick Quotes

Q. Connor, 9-under for the tournament through two rounds. You must be pretty pleased with your work.

CONNOR GRAHAM: Yeah, delighted. It's nice to be back in the UK playing some links golf and happy to come up with two good rounds the last two days.

Q. You're looking to be the medalist two years in a row; that must be a pretty nice cherry on top of the cake?

CONNOR GRAHAM: Yeah, feels pretty good. I'm playing some pretty good golf, so hopefully I can move that into the match play stages.

Q. How do you reassess or reset ahead of the match play because obviously stroke play is a very different format to match play around here?

CONNOR GRAHAM: Yeah, definitely. Just need to kind of reset and then just kind of get ready and prepare for tomorrow's game as best you can.

Q. Have you got much experience around here at Royal St George's?

CONNOR GRAHAM: Yeah, I played the European Team Championships a good few years ago now, so know the course very fairly well before coming here.

Q. You must be pretty well-versed with links golf being from Scotland; is that the case?

CONNOR GRAHAM: Yeah, I've been playing links golf a while now, so definitely know kind of how to play it and just kind of used to it, which will be a big advantage.

Q. What is your game plan for the match play?

CONNOR GRAHAM: Just try and keep on doing what I'm doing, just try and keep on hitting good shots and try and just kind of play as much good golf as I can.
