Kaymer delighted with 'major' victory

  • Intro:

    Martin Kaymer was delighted with his narrow win at the Players Championship in Florida. The German had to contend with a 90-minute storm delay, before sealing his first victory in 19 months.

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE (English) MARTIN KAYMER

    "There's no major behind the tournament here, but at the end of the day, for all of us it's a major. It's the biggest field. It's a tough golf course, a very tough week, and very difficult to beat all of those guys. Pressure-wise it's probably -- I can compare it to the PGA Championship, obviously the playoff that I played. You can't really compare it to the Ryder Cup. Ryder Cup is something completely different, I think.

    "Today the last few holes, it was not about how good I play or how bad I play, it's about how much you want that win. You can hit good golf shots, but everybody hits some bad golf shots. How bad are the bad ones? And how much do you want to bring it home the last three, four holes? I didn't show much of it the first two; I know that. But 17 and 18, I really, really wanted it, and it gives me a lot of satisfaction. For my caddie, as well. We worked so hard and we went through up-and-downs the last two years, and it's very tough because as an athlete you always want it now, you always want the success now, but in golf you just cannot force it. If you win one of those tournaments, it's a big relief that you have done well."
