THE MODERATOR: Seb, you shot 8-under for your first round under the lights at LIV Golf Riyadh. Tell us a little bit about your day.
SEBASTIAN MUÑOZ: Great day. Started with a bogey even though, but I didn't let it bother me, and it kind of got me going, to be honest, making three straight birdies. I just kind of tunnelled in. I just kind of felt like it was playing good, to my advantage, and I just was making the putts. It was kind of a nice flowing round where there was a ton of birdies.
Q. Summarize your first time playing a professional round of golf under the lights.
SEBASTIAN MUÑOZ: Nice. I enjoyed it. I enjoyed it a lot, the experience. I felt like it was the first time we do it, and the visual and the golf ball, I really like it. It's something different, something that we're not used to it, and it's nice.
It wasn't very cold. That was the one thing that we kind of got scared at the beginning of the week. The weather was awesome. The shadows, yeah, there's a little shadow here and there, but we've hit so many balls that a little shadow shouldn't be an issue.
Q. Was there any unexpected challenges out there that you weren't expecting to face?
SEBASTIAN MUÑOZ: The balls in the rough, they're a little more hidden than in the fairway, obviously. But no, I mean, I felt like we kept it under control. We hit a lot of greens and we made a lot of putts, so really nice round.
Q. We just touched base outside. This was the fastest round that you guys have ever played in LIV, four hours and 15 minutes. What do you think contributed to that very quick pace of play out there?
SEBASTIAN MUÑOZ: I think everyone in my group played good. Charles shot 6-under, Ian shot 2-under. I felt like we just kind of kept going, and the group in front was never really in sight. We just took that to our advantage, and just pedal to the metal.
Q. The Torques are in third place. Your team is doing well collectively. What do you need to do for the next two days to keep the momentum going?
SEBASTIAN MUÑOZ: Seems like a lot of birdies because Legion is up by 9 on top of us from what I can see.
Q. It's early days.
SEBASTIAN MUÑOZ: Yeah, they played really well. So nothing, just more of what we brought today, and hopefully we have a chance.
Q. Seb, are you surprised at the low scores?
SEBASTIAN MUÑOZ: Like overall the scores? No, not really. I came here back in December and it was pretty much the same. I think Joaco won with 22-under. I knew that a low one was doable.
Q. Even at night, even with the night golf?
SEBASTIAN MUÑOZ: Yeah, I feel like the night, even the winds died down a little more, and if the temperature is nice, I feel like we kind of cruise.
Q. Could you talk about Legion obviously is leading right now. They've got two young guys, McKibben shot 7, I think, so they're going to be a pretty tough team, I think, this year, aren't they?
SEBASTIAN MUÑOZ: Yeah, they've got a lot of talent, but I believe my team also has a lot of talent. It's going to be -- this is the first day. Still plenty more days to go. They got us today, we'll maybe get them tomorrow.
