GB&I Quick Quotes

Q. You guys are down one; it's close. What's going to be the message this afternoon at lunch?

DEAN ROBERTSON: I don't know if you've seen the matches or seen what happened in the matches, but the momentum switches quickly in match play, and we're behind. How, I don't know, but anything to keep up concentration. We need to be tighter coming down the stretch. It's going to be a great fun afternoon.

Q. They've had your number in the singles; how do you keep that from being a detriment in these guys' minds?

DEAN ROBERTSON: We absolutely will have a good chat at lunchtime, but these guys have got to go out and believe in themselves. They're all good golfers. They're up against some seriously talented individuals, but they're capable, and they've got to believe, and if they can believe, they can achieve.

Q. There's been a little bit made, I guess a couple guys were walking off greens early, La Sasso had to be talked to by a referee after 3 for putting his putter down after not being given a putt. Is that something your guys have paid much mind to?

DEAN ROBERTSON: Not at all. I think the matches are a celebration of the game. The Walker Cup is amazing. I'm sure all the people tuning in are having one of the best times, whether it be PGA Tour, you've got the Ryder Cup coming up in a few weeks' time. It's being played in a great spot. Nathan is a great guy. The whole of the American team have been nothing but respectful. We have confident young athletes, and sometimes they do that. But there's no harm done.
