David Howell Good Quotations

He's a great player, isn't he? I'm just going to have to shoot a good score.

Going to 16, you always worry that he's going to do the miraculous shot and make a 2, and I guess there was a slight surprise that something good didn't happen for him. I was concerned that he was going to hit a 3-wood to about 15 feet, which would have made things difficult.

I was looking good for the matchplay until I had my injury, so I'm delighted I've made it.

I've never played with him actually but he is a great player. I'm just going to have to go out and shoot a good score. You can't look at it in match play terms, but if you get to five or six under par then anyone is going to struggle to beat you. I know the crowd will be with him but that's not going to affect me. It'll make it all the more fun if I win.

David and I are good friends, so it should be nice out there tomorrow. This is a strong field, so it would be a great win if I can get it - but any one of four or five players, if they get hot, still has a chance.

I'm not kidding myself that I'm anywhere near as good as Tiger but who knows? I've got to shoot another two 67s. It's in my own hands.

I played really nicely and gave myself lots of chances but didn't take many of them. If I can just turn it up a little notch over the weekend I should be in good shape.

I don't think that happens to golfers too often. But maybe my swing is better than it was before the accident, so maybe it was a good thing.

I am pleased with my week's work but a bit disappointed. I got myself to seven under and if I had had a good strong finish I could have posted a good total.
