Q. Here with Sei Young Kim after her first round at the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship. Tell me, what was working for you out there today? A lot of birdies out there. What was going so well for you?
SEI YOUNG KIM: I mean, pretty solid round today, especially last four hole I made a birdie. So, yeah, I got the booster. I'm very happy the strong finish today.
Q. What was it about those last four holes and this course in particular that might suit your game well?
SEI YOUNG KIM: I mean, hole No. 7, it's a par-5. It's advantage shot too, so, yeah, I was reach the green and then make the par. It's not -- it was easy.
And then holes 8 and 9 I got 110 to the pin from the second shot, and hole 9 I got 90 to the pin. So it's pretty short distance, so I was able to attack the pin.
So, yeah, that's why I made a lot of the birdies today.
Q. Was your putting really good today? I know the one bogey you had was because of a three-putt. Overall how are you liking these greens and how is your putting looking today?
SEI YOUNG KIM: Yeah, putting well today. My putting dropped many hole today. And especially this course, greens are really soft, so I was able to attack the pin. I got a lot of chance to birdie. So, yeah, that's big deal to me.
Q. Yeah. Going into this event, only a three-day event, does that change your strategy at all, make you more aggressive out here?
SEI YOUNG KIM: This week we have three days so we need a lot of birdies. And then my strategy keep push myself and then, yeah, as I can do, I make a lot of birdie. That's the -- yeah, that's the big chance.
Q. Yeah. Are you planning on continuing to attack these pins tomorrow or you're sort of waiting to see how the course will play out? I know you'll play in the morning so the course might be wet.
SEI YOUNG KIM: Yeah, in the morning it's more wet on the greens, so, yeah, this course is need attack the pin because the greens are really soft. So, yeah, maybe a lot of chance to birdie. How my putting work, that's the big deal.
