#DiamondCup Rd 1: What they said


Danthai Boonma (Tha) First round 67 (-4)

I’m very happy with my score today. It was very windy but I was able to stay bogey-free. I’m playing on this golf course for the first time too. I told myself I’ve to keep all my tee shots on the fairway to give myself that momentum. But my putting was very good today too. So that’s why I did not make any bogeys. I had to keep my ball flight low and hit my approach to the front of the green. I played at The Open last year and used some of those experience here.

Brendan Jones (Aus) First round 68 (-3)

It’s still very early but I’m happy to have put myself into a good position with today’s score. It was very challenging especially with the wind and narrow fairways. You got to be really accurate. I’m glad I managed to do that today. It’s always nice when you are in a good position but you just cannot get too carried away as it’s only the first round and there’s still a lot of golf to play.

Prayad Marksaeng (Tha) First round 70 (-1)

I was not as sharp with my irons today. But my chipping and putting were very good. So overall, I’m pleased with my score. I’ve played on this golf course many times already and I know what to expect. I’m used to such windy conditions and I know how to tackle the fast greens here. Let’s see what tomorrow brings.

Miguel Tabuena (Phi) First round 70 (-1)

It was disappointing to end with a bogey but overall I’m pretty happy with myself as the conditions were really tough. I’m satisfied with how I hit the ball as you got to be really committed off the tee. You have to be sharp here. The fairways are very narrow here and it’s important to get your ball onto them. Physically, I’m very close to where I want to be. I can see that in my results.
