Quick Quotes

Q. All right, here with Mao Saigo after the first round of the Kroger Queen City Championship presented by P&G. 4-under 68. Can you just talk a little bit about your round today?

MAO SAIGO: (Through translation.) My golf shot was pretty solid all day, so I had a lot of birdie chance so I could have made more. I hoped.

Q. Talk about the stretch from hole 7 to hole 11. You made four birdies in five holes. How was everything feeling in that stretch?

MAO SAIGO: (Through translation.) I really feel good about those stretches. Made good shots, makable birdie putts and made the putt and had birdies.

That was good stretches.

Q. And just talk a little bit about this course. Second year here. Do you like it so far?

MAO SAIGO: (Through translation.) Compared to last year, I feel the greens are a little softer and a little bit slower, so I am feeling I need to make more birdies.

But, yeah, overall the course, I love it.
