00:00Okay Jens, you've made it to the grand final, how are you feeling?

00:03Good, it's always nice to be here, it's a nice tournament and this time it's a little bit more

00:08special since there's no pressure really so it's good to be here.

00:12But I guess you have felt that pressure in 2016 when you made it to the grand final but

00:18you just missed out, how tough was that?

00:21It is a very tough thing to play for your card because it's sort of survival really

00:27so it's very mentally draining.

00:30I've been on both sides really so either you're just drained and disappointed or

00:36you're drained and over the moon.

00:38So yeah, it's a special week, we talked about it yesterday, some people here are going to

00:43have a nice week and some are going to have a very, very tough mentally struggling week.

00:502017, how big was that win in Ras Al Khaimah and it was what, four or five years after

00:55your last win?

00:56That was huge, I mean I was playing to get into the final and managed to win that one

01:00and all of a sudden I was inside the top 15, the top 15 made a card that year and kept

01:08going and had a good final as well.

01:10Last day I played six under and secured the card and that was huge and every win is special

01:17but that one was a little extra.

01:19What are your memories from Oman that year, that grand final?

01:22So nice, going up and when your name is called at the end and everything.

01:28Yeah, I mean it was like I said before, I wasn't as calm as today, the day before it

01:36started.

01:36It was a lot of pressure, I was playing for my card and I mean every shot is so valuable

01:45and you just can't relax anywhere, it's just a very mentally draining week so it was so

01:51nice to stand there after the tournament and getting my promotion for the main tour.
