Miguel Angel Jimenez has insisted that he feels relaxed despite leading at the halfway stage of the Open Championship.
The world number 89 holds a one-shot advantage over four players, but the Spaniard has revealed that he enjoys the pressure of being in contention at a Major tournament.
The 49-year-old told reporters: "I feel relaxed and I love what I'm doing. I play golf, I do this for a living and I've been doing the same thing for 25 years. Probably some people say that maybe it's too many years but they're wrong.
"Anything that is important to you is going to make you feel pressure and to me, golf is very important.
"A major is more important. Being on top of this major field makes you feel a lot of pressure - but that's what I'd like to feel on the golf course. I like to feel the pressure, as long as I can handle it, there is no problem."
Jimenez is bidding to become the oldest winner of a Major championship.
