“Hook.”

“Mark Foster for a while!

“I’m good friends with him.”

Best hair on Tour?

“…It’s a close one…

“It boils down to Thomas Bjorn and Graeme Storm…”

Worst hair on Tour?

“David Howell.”

Most generous player on Tour?

“Darren Clarke.”

Who’s the tightest on Tour?

“It could well be a fellow Yorkshireman or probably a Scotsman.”

Funniest player on Tour?

“Joel Sjoholm is always doing something different and funny.”

Least funny player on Tour?

“…I think it must be one of the Scandinavians…I’ll leave it at that!”
