David Law: "It is annoying to finish like that" - Tennis World USA

David Law will be hoping to shake off his "annoying" finish to round three as he goes in search of a second DP World Tour title at the 2022 Ras Al Khaimah Championship presented by Phoenix Capital. The Scot had led after rounds one and two at Al Hamra Golf Club and held a three-shot lead on day three after making a fourth birdie of the day on the 11th.

But while playing partner Nicolai Højgaard birdied five of his last six holes to surge to the top of the leaderboard, Law bogeyed the last after taking on an ambitious second shot and will head into the final round three shots back after a 69.

The 30-year-old was eager to focus on the positives, however, as he looks to add to his victory at the 2019 ISPS Handa Vic Open.

David Law, statements

“It’s annoying to finish like that. I played pretty good until the last four holes and then I struggled.

Got a bit greedy, thought we could maybe nick it with a three wood, chase it up the front and make a four which is a mentality you want to have. You’re always trying to better yourself and get better. I probably shouldn’t have taken that shot on but if I had that shot again I’d probably do it again too.

I played really well, felt comfortable. It wasn’t that great at the start and then I birdied three and that settled me down, and I played well from then. There were a lot of positives and a lot of things to take into tomorrow.

It would have been nice to nick one at the last and be closer to Nicolai but it hasn’t worked out that way. I think it’s going to be a bit winder tomorrow so it’ll be a bit tricky. It’ll be much the same as today for me, I thought we were in a good mind space, we had good shots, executed what we discussed until the last where we made a little bit of a mistake.

But on the whole I thought we were really good so it’ll be more of the same tomorrow”. He is among the most successful sportsmen ever, as well as one of the richest in the world. When it comes to firsts Tiger Woods is always present: 15 majors won, 110 professional tournaments, the most successful golfer in the history of this sport.

Statistics that explain why he managed to stay at the top of the world ranking for 683 weeks (of which 281 consecutive) and above all because in 2014 he became the first sportsman in the world to have broken the billion dollar barrier.

Astronomical figure that also justifies the fact that Tiger Woods can afford a yacht like the Privacy, a real fairytale boat. And obviously we are talking about something that has cost a lot. If you imagine a luxury yacht and some comfort on board, then Privacy has it.

48 meters long, with a total area of ​​600 square meters, this yacht was purchased by the golfer in 2004. Equipped with five cabins capable of accommodating a total of ten people, she also boasts four quarters for nine crew members.

Tiger Woods usually calls it "my dinghy" even if everything looks like a dinghy: with a cruising speed of 18 knots, he also has a gym on board where the golfer keeps training. Woods, in fact, prefers to stay on this yacht during the tournaments held in New York.

With cherry wood interiors, Privacy also features an elevator for three people, a huge Jacuzzi, large enough to accommodate eight people, and the inevitable cinema room and corner bar. The extra something for this mega yacht is provided by the area that Tiger Woods wanted to be dedicated to scuba diving: this also explains the presence of a decompression chamber (inflatable) and an area dedicated to filling oxygen cylinders.

The luxuries are also completed by three jet skis and two scooters for short shore excursions. Obviously, all of this has a price: Privacy cost 17 million euros and its annual maintenance amounts to 1.7 million euros.
