GULLANE, SCOTLAND
Q. Tricky this afternoon; happy with that 66? SHANE LOWRY: Yeah, obviously it's a decent score and gives me a good chance going into tomorrow and going into the weekend. I'm just happy with the good start. Played really nicely today actually. Sort of felt like I could have been a couple better but I'll take that.
Q. On the sixth, a low, boring shot -- how did you hit that shot? We're going to show you a tee shot from the sixth which has Pro Tracer on it, a low, boring draw. How did you hit this shot? SHANE LOWRY: Oh, yeah, that's a 2-iron I have. I put that in the bag a few weeks ago for the U.S. Open. Just put it back in my stance and hit it and hope for the best. Normally works. It's a good club.
Q. You went on to make a terrific birdie at 10. Describe this one for us? SHANE LOWRY: Yeah, hit a great drive down ten. It's a tricky tee shot, tough to hit the fairway. It's a tricky tee shot, tough to hit the fairway and hit a lovely wedge shot. That was a perfect number for me. As you see, maybe six or eight feet and I managed to roll that in. That kind of got me going into the back nine. Felt like I just played solid and I knew 16 was kind of there, and 16 was a good chance. I was happy to birdie that, too.
Q. I know you love a links golf course. What's your feeling on this course? SHANE LOWRY: Yeah, I like it. It's a very fair golf course. You play good golf and shoot a good score, if you hit bad shots there's a lot of bunkers off the tee that can penalize you. I managed to stay out of the bunkers today and hope to stay out of them for the rest of the week.
