RICOH WOMEN'S BRITISH OPEN


September 13, 2012


Stacey Keating


WIRRAL, ENGLAND

Q.  So you were high on the leaderboard most of the day, obviously dropped a shot at the end but you must be pretty happy with that?
STACEY KEATING:  Yeah, exactly.  I hit in a pot bunker on the last and had to take my medicine and that's the way it goes.  I was happy with how the day went.

Q.  These conditions, people say they are basically benign compared to the rest of the week?
STACEY KEATING:  Yeah, especially we teed off at like  8.30, so we had some really good conditions, I think it will be a different story tomorrow but I'm glad I made the most of it.

Q.  What were the key heights to your round today?
STACEY KEATING:  The first was a tough opening hole and I hit a 5‑wood to about eight feet and holed it so it's always nice to start with a birdie.  I had a few about birdie chances and a couple good saves, like up‑and‑downs on par 3s.  Yeah, just a dropped shot at the last but hey, that happens.

Q.  Do you like links golf?
STACEY KEATING:  I do, actually.  I think it's very exciting golf.  Like you can hit a great shot and get a bad bounce but you can hit a bad shot and get away with it, so I think it is, it's very exciting, exciting golf.  And I think coming from Melbourne, we play a lot of courses that can be quite firm and fast.

Q.  Does it remind you of home?
STACEY KEATING:  A bit, not the conditions.

Q.  Which course does it remind you of most?
STACEY KEATING:  I guess we have not played proper links, links since this time last year.  Just a one‑off.

Q.  So you feel good for the weekend now, you have no expectations?
STACEY KEATING:  Yeah, still, the same.  I have afternoon tee off tomorrow so I know it's going to be a lot tougher than it was out there this morning.  I know I made the most of the nice conditions and we'll see how it goes tomorrow.  A long way to go.
