Stellar news<\/u> for Jamie Dornan<\/strong> fans comes courtesy of Alfred Dunhill Links<\/em> on this last day of August!<\/p>\n

The My Dinner with Herv\u00e9<\/strong> star is lined up to play in the prestigious Pro-Amateur golf tournament<\/strong> from October 5-8, 2017<\/em> and fans are understandably freaking out.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Our favourite thing as fans, aside from watching Jamie tear up the big screen<\/strong> in his many diverse and thought provoking roles, is to watch him play golf<\/strong> and yet again, we have not been left disappointed. Dunhill Links announced Jamie’s participation<\/u> in this year’s series via a Q&A article<\/strong> on their website<\/a> this morning.<\/p>\n

10 Questions: Jamie Dornan back at St. Andrew’s<\/u><\/p>\n

Question:<\/em> How much do you enjoy playing in the Alfred Dunhill Links? What makes it special?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jamie Dornan:<\/em> I love it. The chance to play a few of the best courses in the world alongside some of the best players in the world can\u2019t be sniffed at.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question:<\/em> What was it like walking down the 18th in the final group on Sunday last year?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jamie Dornan:<\/em> Terrifying. I felt a bit lost but just wanted Tyrrell [Hatton, the winner] to drink it all in.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question:<\/em> Was it a better feeling than holing out for your eagle on the 18th the year before?
\nJamie Dornan: I hacked it down the 18th last year, so definitely have fonder memories of my eagle the year before.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question:<\/em> You\u2019re making a habit of playing with winners \u2013 Danny Willett in 2015 and he went on to win the Masters; now Tyrrell Hatton, who went on to reach 14th in the world.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jamie Dornan:<\/em> I\u2019m a lucky boy. I think my game gives them confidence when they see just how badly someone else can hit the golf ball.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question:<\/em> Your partner Tyrrell won, but you only finished fourth in the Team Championship, behind Danny Willett and his caddie Jonathan Smart. Were you pleased to finish fourth, or disappointed you didn\u2019t win?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jamie Dornan:<\/em> Was cool to finish fourth, but once we were up there I wanted to win. I\u2019m competitive and was annoyed at myself that I didn\u2019t contribute more over the weekend.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question:<\/em> You look quite relaxed on the course, is that the case?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jamie Dornan:<\/em> It\u2019s nervous laughter most of the time!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question:<\/em> Does being an actor, with your work being seen by so many people, mean you don\u2019t suffer from nerves on the 1st tee?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jamie Dornan:<\/em> Not at all. This is way outside of my comfort zone<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question:<\/em> Now that you\u2019ve played three times, what is your assessment of the courses?
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jamie Dornan:<\/em> The closing three holes at Carnoustie are simply impossible for an amateur.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question:<\/em> Where does golf fit into your life at the moment? How often do you play?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jamie Dornan:<\/em> I get to play about 8\/10 rounds a year these days. Simply not enough, but work and two daughters under four doesn\u2019t allow for a great deal of time to myself.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Question:<\/em> What are your next big work projects?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jamie Dornan:<\/em> I\u2019ve got 50 Shades Freed coming out in February, Robin Hood out in March, and My Dinner with H\u00e8rve coming out in April.<\/strong><\/p>\n
