On the surface of it, the question posed to Robert Rock appeared the simplest of interrogatives. But having recently put the seal on what could possibly become the defining performance of his career, the Englishman was struggling to identify exactly just how he felt about the whole thing.

To the onlooker, however, the answer appeared abundantly clear, as clear as the burning blue skies under which the 34 year old had magnificently plotted his way to victory in the 2012 Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship.

Against a field of global superstars in residence at the Abu Dhabi Golf Club last week, Rock had produced what was surely some of the finest golf of his life to claim a sensational one shot triumph over US Open Champion Rory McIlroy and two ahead of Thomas Björn, Graeme McDowell and a certain 14-time Major Champion by the name of Tiger Woods. -----
