The European shoots 73 at the opening day at Royal Portrush
Um, that’s right. I’m doing two in English and so tell us I mean about the round. I mean what was tough today and what worked for you? Uh yeah, conditions were pretty tough. Uh good amount of wind, a lot of crosswinds which made it uh pretty hard to get the ball close to the hole. and uh early on was piling my swing a little bit, but then I feel like after hole I think seven or eight after hole eight, I kind of settled in a little bit and started hitting some pretty good shots, but yeah, it was it was tough to get a ball close to make birdies. Yeah. Well, you’ve been around with in the links for a while. So, embracing those conditions, embracing the weather. I mean, what is your mental like trick? Yeah, for sure. I mean, you just have to kind of take it as it comes. you know, there might be stretches where it’s uh pretty getable and you got to take advantage and then there might be stretches where you just aim at the middle of the green. So, really just uh adjust your strategy to the to the course conditions. Just overall attitude mindset. How do you keep a good attitude in the conditions? Um you just have to focus on on the shot at hand. Uh and I feel like the conditions almost make that easier. Um because you just have so much to to think about, so much to worry about with the shot. you can’t really worry about kind of where you are in the tournament, where you are in the on the leaderboard. Is it easy to think like it’s just you a lot of times like not the whole field’s dealing with the same thing? At times, yeah. Uh but I mean, you know, everybody’s got at least two guys that they’re watching, too. So, uh when they’re not getting it really close to the holes, it also kind of shows you that uh that it is kind of pretty tough out there.
