GolfSixes - What they said

The GolfSixes made its European Tour debut this weekend at the Centurion Club with Denmark holding off 15 other teams and taking home the trophy after a thrilling 3-1 victory in the final against Australia.

Matteo Manassero and Renato Paratore - celebrate victory over England in the quarter-finals of the Golf Sixes

Here, we take a look at what some of the players had to say after a revolutionary two days in the world of golf.

Scotland - third

Marc Warren: "I think we had a good match with Italy. Both of us are good players and we had to kind of grind it out and take it out towards the end. Richie hit a great shot to number five and made birdie to take it down the last and eventually sneak through on the second play-off hole."

Richie Ramsay: "Basically I did nothing. He did everything. No, I mean, it was really tough because the wind is moving around all the time and we weren't sure if it was down, in or across. I wasn't really doing too much. Great way to finish and a good match for the Italian boys. It's been a really good week."

Italy - fourth

Matteo Manassero: "You don't even have time to be in momentum or kill momentum. It's just about making everything count, really. We got down to the sixth hole every single time and we were hanging in there all the time. We played the sixth really well. Today, we couldn't perform - this round (semi-final), we couldn't perform as we did the other rounds. It was a good GolfSixes for us."

England - quarter-finals

Chris Wood: "It's been great fun. It's a great format and there's definitely something in it so hopefully people can see it as a success despite the fact that we have not gone through this morning. It's been great. Going into today, I thought we could go on and win it after yesterday but it's good. We're disappointed, I think that says a lot. We wanted to go on and try and win it. But in front of home crowds and stuff, it's a great feeling to play golf like that for us. You want to go back out and play in front of crowds like that again. It's a shame but I think it's a great format."

Andy Sullivan: "It's been an unbelievable week. I just think with this sort of format, you've got to get guys that are willing to, not act silly, but just get into the theme of having fun and stuff and I think that's what it's about. The best thing about it was we had a lot of fun out there but there's competitiveness, you want to win as well. You've seen that this morning. I just think it's a perfect combination over such a short format. It's fantastic."
