"I can't believe it," he said. "I hit the ball terrible today but luckily the putter kept me in it again. The tee shot on 16 was a shocker, the second shot wasn't much better and then I holed the bunker shot so I think that was the one that gave me a bit of belief. Then to roll that putt in there (on the 18th) was magical "I didn’t really foresee this, my form hasn’t been great. But I felt like I was playing better, definitely around the greens.I think I’m going to have to go now and have a nice big glass of red wine and think about what’s next."
