I don't know, maybe I feel good with the golf course. Yeah, after finish the round my position still like top 10.

You said in the beginning of the week you really liked the course when you were practicing on it. Why did you like it?

ARPICHAYA YUBOL: Because on the practice I do everything great. Maybe I got confidence from the British Open, and then this week like it's no wind and the golf course is pretty wide open. Like just get confident from the British Open, and then on the practice I think, yeah, the golf course is looking like -- make me feel like, okay, you can do on this week.

But actually on the first -- I think every round, my driver still stop a little bit some hole. But, yeah, I tried to do my best ever shot to try to get on the green and then made the easy par every hole.
