Quick Quotes

Q. You started just as you finished with a birdie. Talk us through it today?

NACHO ELVIRA: I mean, I think I'm playing pretty consistent off the tee, the last five, six weeks. And I think that's key around Wentworth. I think I managed to play my driver really well and I put myself in good position in order to hit good shots on the green and managed to make a couple putts so very pleased.

Q. What were conditions like? A lot of the guys across the board this afternoon were struggling.

NACHO ELVIRA: It was tough. I mean, when it blows at Wentworth, it seems like you're struggling, and you have all these tunnels that seems like the wind is going opposite directions. I guess, you know, we have a very lucky caddie, let's put it that way.

Q. This is a tournament, obviously the Flagship Event of the DP World Tour that we feel like, given all your opportunities, everything that you accomplish on the Tour, it's not been a week that you've really thrived on. What's missing around this track for you?

NACHO ELVIRA: Definitely me submitting it straight. I mean, it's a course that I've always struggled. I think driving has not been my strongest part of the game, and you know, I think it's turning around the last couple months. So hopefully if I can keep it on the fairway, you know, I can exploit that.
