Do you have a favorite golf course?
I grew up on a nine hole course. I like all golf courses, so I don’t have a particular favourite.
How often do you get to play golf at the moment?
Right now I’m in Madrid. We practice five days a week and then have the weekend off. We go to the course twice a week.
Do you do much physical training?
Yes, that is very important. Monday to Friday I work out for three hours a day: running, sit ups, weights, and doing a lot of work on the back. I have a quick warm up before I play a game.
Do you have any golfing heroes?
Who do you look to for inspiration?
There is one guy who is a Norwegian player, Marius Thorpe, he is a great friend of mine. We met at the Junior Ryder Cup a few years ago. I think he has a lot of talent and he is going to be a great player. I prefer to get inspiration from someone who is nearer to myself.
What do you think about the way
Michelle Wie plays and takes on the men?
She doesn’t really play any junior events so she doesn’t compare with junior amateurs. I have practiced with her on the driving range. She’s a great player. She hits the ball very far and very straight.
What parts of the game are your strongest?
The short game is my best. When I have practiced and have confidence then my putting is very good. Then my long game is good too. I always hit the fairway.
