Quick Quotes

Q. 69, blemish-free, it's a good start.

MARCO PENGE: It's solid. Pretty tough conditions with the wind and with the back flags, the greens being so soft, it's tough to hit it close. Bogey-free round is always nice.

Q. Nice to be back here, back home and you have a big gallery following you and Tyrrell today, lots of people out there?

MARCO PENGE: For sure, it's so nice to be playing in front of the home crowd. You get so much support out there. We had a big crowd like you said, this morning, which was nice, and hopefully a few others add to the crowd and themselves to me.

Q. You have a lot of golf to play to get Round 2 underway, I know you've been struggling with your health and your fitness this year. Are you worried about that, or is the body holding up?

MARCO PENGE: No, I should be fine.

Q. 36 holes to play today.

MARCO PENGE: My body should be fine. I obviously just had two weeks off and haven't played that much the last couple of months. I'm pretty fresh compared to the other lads. I've got my physio and my trainer here. Yeah, should be fine.
