Q: How did you play today?
A: I started on the back nine today, and there were many birdies I made. So it was a good round. There were many chances in the second half, but I didn't make birdies as I expected. However, I'm satisfy that I have a bogey-free round today.
Q: You had a hole out on No. 14. Tell us about that hole?
A: I hit it in a good place on the fairway, but I missed it to the right and fell into bunker. That was the uphill lie. So it was very comfortable to play. So I said to my caddie, like "I don't think this will be such a big mistake." And I made it.
Q: What do you think about this course?
A: I think I got a good score today because I didn't make any serious mistakes, but the course itself is not that easy. I think I'll have to keep concentrating on the course.
Since I will play in the morning tomorrow, I hope to play better with the expectation that it will be less windy than today. Like today, I hope that I won't make a big mistake. Just to keep and save than try to make when I get a chance.
Q: LOTTE is one of your sponsors. How thankful are you for their support:
A: I'm grateful that the sponsors held this great tournament. As such, I really want to play well with responsibility. I will concentrate rest of three days and show you good performance until the end.
