Quick Quotes
Q. Hailey, thank you so much for joining us. 1-under in the first round of the Women's Amateur Asia-Pacific. Are you happy with your performance?
HAILEY LOH: Yeah, I started really well. I birdied the first two holes, and that kind of got me going and getting into the zone. I'm pretty happy with how I played today. I'm hoping tomorrow will be the same or even better.
Q. Can you talk us through those birdies on the first two holes.
HAILEY LOH: I started at hole 10, so I hit a good drive with a 3-wood, and then I hit 80 metres in, and then I hit it to four feet, one putt for a birdie. That kind of got me going.
Second hole, I drew a really aggressive line, and it paid off really well. I had just like an 80-metre shot in, same thing. Hit it to ten feet, made the putt, birdie.
Q. That line on the second, is that something you'll be looking to replicate over the next three days?
HAILEY LOH: I hope so (laughter). I hit it really good.
Q. What would you say was the key strength of your game today?
HAILEY LOH: I feel like I putted well today, and everything was just going well. I was having good tempo with my swing. I was having good feel on the greens. Everything was just okay. It was just good.
Q. You must be taking a lot of confidence from today's round and carrying that through to the rest of the championship.
HAILEY LOH: I'm really looking forward to challenging myself the next three days. Today I played with a me versus the course mindset. So I'm really looking forward to trying to beat the course the next three days.
