Singapore is a pretty fantastic place, and the race is always a challenge.

The Singapore Open is the flagship event of the Asian Tour, it is a massive event and it is being played in a great place. I love coming here and it is good to be back.

Singapore has been incredibly well-managed. It was created out of the swamp, with a strong emotional idea: a safe place for mostly Chinese, but accepting other cultures and other races.

I don't much like Singapore. It's very big, very modern and very urbanised. As a rule, I prefer older places where you get a sense of the history.

Our regular fitness programme means that the race lasting longer than others should not be a problem, but something you have to prepare for in Singapore is ensuring you always keep well-hydrated, as the heat and humidity can easily dehydrate you.

I think 'Amazing Race' is sometimes like being on tour.

Korean audiences are amazing. The fans scream so loud, and that really surprises skaters when they first perform in my shows.

And Shanghai is amazing. I'm a fan of science fiction so when you're there in the night with all the lights and all this modernity, it's like a set in a movie.

Whenever I race in the U.K., the crowd just makes such a massive difference, often between winning and losing.

My favourite festival experience is a show at midnight with the moon blazing and a crowd full of open hearts ready to dance.
