MATCH QUOTES

“Sticking at it is one of the qualities of success. “We had three or four players below par, but they all gave 100 per cent. “Having such a big points lead at this stage does not frighten me. “I’m happy to be out there. “As far as I'm concerned we have just finished the sixth round of a 15-round fight and have the comfort of being way ahead on points." Ron Saunders.
