Quick Quotes

Q. All right, here with Arpichaya after the first round of The Standard Portland Classic. 6-under round; bogey-free. Talk about your day today. How were things going?

ARCHIPAYA YUBOL: I would say it was kind of like one day for me, so especially I take my dad back to my caddie and then we just have game plan together and then I try to play like consistent, keep in the fairway, make on the green, and try to make a birdie every time that I can.

So my putter is work today. That's why I can make 6-under today.

Q. This course is narrow. How important is it to stay in the fairways and hit greens out here?

ARCHIPAYA YUBOL: Oh, I think maybe last week I stay with my mom friend, so they member at the golf course at Sahalle and then like I have to practice over there. Like everything is too narrow and make my like get ready for this week.

I play here like third time and I know the course pretty well. And then I think try to don't think too much. Just keep playing like what you play, and then if bad shot, just think about later.

But today everything is working, yeah.

Q. And then talk a little bit about your start. 4-under through seven holes. How nice is it to get off to a hot start like that?

ARCHIPAYA YUBOL: It's a little bit surprise for me. Like it's long time I don't play like really good like this, and then it's make me like, okay, you came today like (Plane interference.)
