Excellent comment Mark. You got to believe in yourself. Being one always for the underdog, it did my heart good reading about it.

"I think too many times on the tour some guys try to play almost too well, and it’s really important to stay patient and not make rash decisions early in the match. And I definitely didn’t do that today. That’s one of the keys.".....
