Quick Quotes

Q. 5-under 67 on moving day, how do you reflect on that?

TYRRELL HATTON: Felt like a scruffy day to be honest. I didn't feel overly comfortable at times so that was a little bit disappointing. That being said, I feel like it's probably the best I could have shot today, so I take that as a positive. Hopefully I feel better tomorrow and give myself more opportunities for birdies.

Q. What aspect of your game did please you most?

TYRRELL HATTON: I don't know, I feel like nothing was, like, great. It sort of feels like a weirdly disappointing day though it wasn't. Just very different feelings from what I've had the last two days, and so yeah, you can't play well every day. So hopefully that's the bad one out of the way and I'll be better tomorrow.

Q. Being too harsh on yourself but what will you be looking to going into tomorrow?

TYRRELL HATTON: I'll just maybe put this down to a bit of a weird day. Yeah, just try and go out there tomorrow and trust the swing is in a good place and hopefully hit some good shots. Today there was so many shots that went right, and it's easy to let that get in your head and you try and tweak it with things,s and little things aren't just quite working.

Yeah, hopefully swing a bit freer tomorrow.

Q. Looks like it will be the same final group alongside Jon and Francesco. A word on your playing partners, please.

TYRRELL HATTON: Yeah, it's always good fun to play with Jon. Francesco played well today. Had some lovely up-and-downs on the back nine. Should be a fun day. I imagine the scoring will be low again. So we're all going to need play well. The guys who are just behind on the leaderboard, they are going to be making plenty of birdies, as well. I'm sure it will be an exciting final day for everyone watching at home.

Q. How excited heading into tomorrow with a chance of winning your sixth Rolex Series title and second here in Abu Dhabi?

TYRRELL HATTON: It would mean a lot. My main objective this week was to try to get into next week. I haven't been in that position very often coming into Abu Dhabi where I need to play well to get into Dubai. So yeah, there's a lot to play for, Ryder Cup points, World Ranking points, Race to Dubai points.

So yeah, tomorrow is an important day for me.
