Q. All right, here with Celine Boutier after her first round at the Buick LPGA Shanghai. Just a fantastic round; bogey-free. What worked so well for you today?
CELINE BOUTIER: I think my long game has been really steady. I put myself in a lot of, you know, birdie chances and I was able to make a few, which was good.
Yeah, very positive first round.
Q. What is it about this course that brings out some of your strengths?
CELINE BOUTIER: I think you have to be pretty straight because the rough is really thick, so whenever you kind of spray a little bit you get really penalized. I think there is definitely a premium on the fairways. Once you're on fairway you can be a little bit aggressive. Greens are a bit softer as well so I think I was able to manage that pretty well and was able to hole some putts.
Q. After your recent win, how much has that helped you this week get a little adjusted to playing here?
CELINE BOUTIER: Yeah, I think definitely the time change and traveling, just the week ahead, it definitely helped me to fight the jet lag and just being able to get accustomed to the time zone and the temperature, everything around here.
And then just having also a solid week last week has definitely helped feeling more confident this week.
Q. You have two wins in China. What's the secret?
CELINE BOUTIER: Yeah, I'm not really sure. I definitely feel like I've been playing some solid golf over here. Hopefully that continues over the next few days.
Q. (Indiscernible.)
CELINE BOUTIER: Not really one in particular. I feel like I hit a lot of really good shots and was able to hit a few close, especially around the turn, so that was very positive. I think I had like five or six birdies in a row which was pretty nice.
Q. (Regarding 10-under round.)
CELINE BOUTIER: Yeah, it's very scorable. I think if -- again, if you hit the fairways you can definitely have a lot of chances. So it's very nice to be able to score that low.
But obviously a lot can happen still in the next three rounds.
