BMW PGA CHAMPIONSHIP


May 24, 2015


Miguel Angel Jimenez


VIRGINIA WATER, ENGLAND

Q.  You saved the best until last, run of birdies on the back nine.  I thought the birdie at 15 was the highlight.
MIGUEL ÁNGEL JIMÉNEZ:  I hit a very nice driver there and then a great putt there, right‑to‑left.  I hit a beautiful second shot.  With the 4‑iron and 5‑iron, with the 5‑iron, I have a very similar distance the second round and then the ball is coming just to that point.  I feel like the distance, it's not that strong as the second round.  And at the end I take the 5‑iron, I need to hit it very solid and I hit a beautiful shot.  Just needs to bounce one more meter and will be in the hole.  Then I make a great putt and I make it in the hole.  It's a very good shot.

Q.  This is your 26th consecutive PGA Championship.  How much do you enjoy coming here and playing in front of these fans?
MIGUEL ÁNGEL JIMÉNEZ:  I love it.  I love the fans here, it's unbelievable.  They are very knowledgeable about this sport and I enjoy very much coming here to play and I feel the support always during the week.  Always fantastic.

Q.  Your greatest highlight this week, describe this one again for us.
MIGUEL ÁNGEL JIMÉNEZ:  A beautiful 3‑wood, it's a 9‑iron, 137 metres to the hole, beautiful.

Q.  Have you enjoyed the last few days?
MIGUEL ÁNGEL JIMÉNEZ:  I enjoyed very much.  I enjoy very much the golf here and this week here.  Playing very well.  And the crowd, the people is unbelievable.  I feel all the support of all the people here.  I enjoy very much and very happy.

Q.  Looks like you feed off them.  A fantastic performance today.  Your 26th consecutive PGA Championship.  How did you play today?
MIGUEL ÁNGEL JIMÉNEZ:  I played very well, very solid.  It was slow start, I start with first birdie on hole No. 8.  Playing very solid.

Q.  Will you take a lot this week and looking forward to next week?
MIGUEL ÁNGEL JIMÉNEZ:  I'm taking a lot, because I don't know what I'm going to do‑‑ it's very important for me to get my spot for the U.S. Open.  I think now with this second spot here, it's going to be in the higher in the World Ranking‑‑ also I commit to play next week, I have to play Sweden.  Then you have to go to the States and then probably you need to, I don't know, probably have to week off because it's going to be too many tournaments.  I will decide.
