Even when I missed the short putt (at the first) &#8211; or this one, hole 72 &#8211; I was not discouraged.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On the eighth tee, I thought David Puig is going to win the tournament by eight because he was hitting amazing, and Jon and myself made a few mistakes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Two or three years ago, I was in the first tee, in the trees, supporting Jon &#8211; without playing, I just come here to Madrid to see the tournament,&#8221; continued Hidalgo.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To be here and win the tournament is unreal.
