BMW INTERNATIONAL OPEN


June 24, 2011


Marcel Siem


EICHENRIED, GERMANY

Q. Well played today. What's it like with all that support and the birdies just starting to roll in?
MARCEL SIEM: Yeah, it's very nice, especially it's my home course, and I know quite a lot of people here, and the support is just great, I think the most spectators we've ever had here on the Thursday and Friday. Especially when I chipped in for eagle on 11, that was great. It felt a little bit like the U.S. Open when I chipped in on 15. It was nice. There was no high-fives, though, but it was good. Step by step. My big goal is to have four good rounds in a row. I didn't have that this year so far. It's good.

Q. You have a lot of history here. Just explain to people how far back you go with this golf course.
MARCEL SIEM: Yeah, I think it was between my 9th and 13th -- between when I was 9 and 13 I grew up here. My parents had the golf restaurant and I was fishing just behind the pitching green there and on 16 and 18. So all the people know me since I'm a little guy, so it's really nice. I know this course so well, and I was always struggling. My best result was eighth here. But this year I've stayed calm so far, even when I hit a few bad shots.
I usually always put myself so much under pressure here when I play, and I think after last week at the U.S. Open I came here a little bit more relaxed than usual. Usually I come here on Sunday and practice, practice, practice, have three practice rounds, and I was a little bit in a rush this year, so I think it was good for me.
