TOTO JAPAN CLASSIC


November 3, 2018


Nasa Hataoka


Tokyo, Japan

NASA HATAOAKA: I had one bogey today, same as yesterday, which I three-putted. It's costly. Compared to yesterday, I had less birdie chance today.

In the morning my tee shots were toward the right side, then started all over. Left and right. My iron shots, I pulled a lot.

I tried to adjust my tee shot, so toward the end, it was getting better. but never iron accuracy.

Maybe I was swinging faster. A bad habit recently is that I am gripping my left hand too strong.

Minjee was playing so good, I tried to concentrate on my game but I looked at her. She played too good and took off. Trying to catch her, two strokes is possible, but three. That gets harder.

But I was very fortunate that I made birdie on 18. Four strokes for the final round to catch is hard but better than five strokes.

Overall my game is not bad, so if I can pick up some hints, I might have a good score tomorrow.

After I turned pro, Minjee's name was always on the leaderboard. I think she is very steady. Watching her, she has the same tempo all the time. She's a great shotmaker.

At Walmart, I played with Minjee in the final round, that time I was tied at the top at the start. So the condition is different this time.
