THORNBERRY CREEK LPGA CLASSIC

July 6, 2017

Sei Young Kim

Oneida, Wisconsin

THE MODERATOR: It's my pleasure to introduce Sei Young Kim, who shot a 7-under 65 today at Thornberry Creek. What was working well for you.

SEI YOUNG KIM: Today my shot solid today, and greens were softer, so I was able to go after the pins and give myself a lot of birdie opportunities. And then putting was good, and I made a lot of birdies, yeah.

THE MODERATOR: You were bogey-free on your back nine, the front nine here. Anything particular stand out to you during that stretch?

SEI YOUNG KIM: Yeah, I didn't miss any short putts, but from 9, at the second hole I missed a really short putt, like one-foot putt, and then I got a little bit of shock, and it's like -- I said, okay, any more -- okay, focus on it, keep focusing. Yeah, it works.

THE MODERATOR: You're one of our winners already this season. You won at the Lorena Ochoa Match Play. How does it feel to get off to another good start today?

SEI YOUNG KIM: Today? It's been a long time since I played well in the first round, so yeah, I'm very blessed to have shot a 7-under. We have three more days, and I'm looking forward to the other days.

Q. How do you like the golf course here?
SEI YOUNG KIM: I like the course. All the par-5s, if I hit a good tee shot, I'm able to hit in two shots. If I hit a good tee shot, I can make a lot of birdie chances, yeah. That's good advantage for me.

Q. How does it feel to get off to a good start here, especially with the U.S. Women's Open next week?
SEI YOUNG KIM: Yeah, a lot of people are looking forward to the next tournament. Yeah, I hopefully play well and then hopefully play well, too, in the U.S. Open.
