(About 40 feet). I think the wind picked up and birdies were tough to come by (on the back nine). I only had two looks, the par-5s, the 14 and the 18.

Our PM specially said this to us, whatever things happen, whoever wins a medal, but when Indian hockey teams win a medal, there's a special, and we feel it. Sometimes when you, when you count money, or emotions, the love, I think, money says no," he added.
