Quick Quotes
Q. A lot better today than yesterday, especially for you Colin. What was different?
COLIN MONTGOMERIE: Well, I couldn't be much worse, so I had to help my partner out. He was super. You know, what were you, 6-under today I think under better ball, so that was good golf. Because it was breezy this morning and it was difficult. The greens are quite grainy fast. You got to be quite careful.
So we holed out well and we've given the team a good opportunity again, sure.
Q. Talk about strategy differences between playing this format and the Scotch sixsomes?
MIGUEL ANGEL JIMENEZ: Well, the different is in the better ball you have always two chances to almost to make a birdie, you know. To play in the sixsome format it's very important to -- well, you should always the course is (indiscernible) and then (indiscernible) for that, you know. So a little bit more delicate.
It's not a pure one shot. You have the (indiscernible - background noise.) to the tee, no. But it's more fun.
Q. And this is the thing. I don't know anyone who will put you two together, and were like, Colin Montgomery, Miguel Angel Jimenez, let's go. How did this pairing happen?
COLIN MONTGOMERIE: Chalk and cheese, night and day, is that what you're trying to say?
Q. I'm just saying.
COLIN MONTGOMERIE: This is the entertainer here. Come on now. I'm very fortunate. One of the best players on this Champions TOUR, if not the best players on this Champions TOUR, Miguel. It was an honor to play with him, and we got another very important afternoon ahead of us where we'll use his ball, and so we have a very important afternoon ahead.
We got to keep going here, you know. We were ahead last year and let it slip. Well, two years ago. Let's hope we don't allow that to happen again. So determined. So if you don't mind, going to go have a rest.
Q. So far so good.
COLIN MONTGOMERIE: Thank you.
