Previous champions Danny Willett and Henrik Stenson talked on Wednesday about the forthcoming BMW International Open in Germany.

SOUNDBITE (English): Danny Willett, 2012 BMW International Open champion (on how his career has progressed since winning his first European Tour event here four years ago):
"I think that really helped to give you the confidence that you're playing well and that you can win on tour. It's no easy feat, there's 156 guys every week and they are all great players, so any time you can be up there and compete obviously makes for a great week. I just think I've done everything a little bit better each day, each week, over the course of a long period of time, and obviously get the back better and get injury free and and the last two years I've really come a long way in what we've achieved and what we've done."

SOUNDBITE (English): Henrik Stenson, 2006 BMW International Open champion:
"Yes, I think we all have certain tournaments that we have on our schedules year in, year out, and this is certainly one of them, where I've been quite successful both on this course and down in Munich, where I won in 2006. I like coming to Germany, I've got a lot of fans here and I enjoy the week and I've been playing well, so it's good to be back."
