Quick Quotes


Q. So welcome back to Scotland. Great round today. Can you just talk me through it.

WICHANEE MEECHAI: Thank you. I just have a lot of confidence with my shot today, and the driver was like being a good boy. And, yeah, I just picked the right club and then thinking good. So it ended up good.

Q. You played on links golf quite a few times, you've played in this event, I think this is your fifth or sixth appearance. What is it about links golf that suits your game, and is there anything you particularly like about links golf?

WICHANEE MEECHAI: I think normally it's so windy here. So I'm kind of like very patient with my shot. And I think that's the strong part of me when it's so windy and then you cannot make a lot of birdies, and then I still make pars.

So I think that's the good -- like the game that's good for me.

Q. And you talk about conditions. Actually, it wasn't too windy today. Was it quite surprising? Was it not what you expected Scotland to be like?

WICHANEE MEECHAI: Quite surprised, but it's good. Yeah, I like it. But, yeah, it's so a lot of girls can make a lot of birdies from here. But, yeah, I still love like this. If it's like this tomorrow, I will -- I will --

Q. Happy?

WICHANEE MEECHAI: Happy, yeah. I'll take it. Yeah.

Q. And is there anything you do to prepare for links golf, considering you like not playing it in these conditions throughout the year?

WICHANEE MEECHAI: Yeah, I'll change my driver, like make it lower, because you need a lot more run. So it worked out. And then I have a shorter club to play the second shot, yeah.

Q. And you're one of Trust Golf's sponsor invitations. And how does it feel to have 12 Thai players in the field? Is it nice to have that Thai connection?

WICHANEE MEECHAI: Yeah, it's so good. It feels like you play in Thailand, like you talk with all the Thai girls, and then a lot of caddies, stuff like that. I feel so great and happy to be here.

Q. And do you guys hang out a lot, like outside the golf? And is it nice to just have so many friends around?

WICHANEE MEECHAI: Yes, we do. Actually, tomorrow we're going to have like a dinner for like Mo birthday.

Q. And actually there's been Thai food served. It feels like everyone is sort of welcoming the Thai connection with Trust Golf as well.

WICHANEE MEECHAI: Yes, yes. We just rent the Airbnb, so we got a chance to cook a lot of Thai food, you know, like a little party every day.

Q. And what would you say is your goal for the rest of the week?

WICHANEE MEECHAI: Oh, just be patient here and then make a lot of birdies.
