I am very happy because I have played very well, the clubs have worked, and I have been able to deal with the changing winds we have encountered. In recent weeks, I am more confident because things are going the way I want, and the hard mental work I have been doing is paying off. #OpenDeEspaña #EugenioChacarra #Golf (translated)
I have felt very comfortable because I have hit the driver very well and that, in such a demanding course design as this, is fundamental. Here, as soon as you lose the fairways, you are lost. #OpenDeEspaña #EugenioChacarra #Golf (translated)

I've started hitting from the tee again like I used to, because in the past few weeks I've been struggling with the driver. I know that if I'm in position from the tee, especially on this course, the round is going to be good. If you keep missing fairways, with the trees and the rough, it's complicated to get opportunities. If I'm on the fairway, it helps a lot to hit to the green and make two putts. If not, you're screwed, you're going to suffer. If the driver is in its place and I keep my order, I'll be up there. #OpenEspana #Golf #EugenioChacarra (translated)
I have made the effort to play because it is the Open of Spain. Otherwise, I wouldn't be playing. I have suffered a lot in the last 12 holes and it bothers me every time I put my foot down. It hurts less when I take the swing. I’m going to see the doctor and my physiotherapist to see what happens. I can't guarantee that I will continue because I have a lot at stake this season. I would be very sorry to withdraw, but it hurts a lot. #OpenEspana #Golf #EugenioChacarra (translated)
