Original title: Liu Ruixin admitted to gaining confidence following 6 birds in T8 in the first round of the LPGA Pylos Tournament
On April 28, local time, the first round of the LPGA Palosford Championship with a total prize of $1.5 million ended in California, USA. Chinese player Liu Ruixin gave 6 birds and 1 double bogey, and the final score was fixed at 67, 4 under par, and temporarily tied for 8th place.
“Overall, I played well, especially the tee shot was super good,” Liu Ruixin said in an interview following the game that the first 9 holes were relatively short, so he gave himself a certain chance in putting.
Today, Liu Ruixin scored 6 birdies in the first 9 holes, including back-to-back birdies on holes 2 and 3 and four consecutive birdies on holes 5-8. “The 7th hole was the most impressive, it was a par-5 hole,” said Liu Ruixin during the replay, saying that the tee shot fell into the bunker on the right, and the second hit was heavy. After that, he used a 6-iron at regarding 160 yards. The position hit the green, “At that time my idea was to keep PAR safely, but in the end the ball was only two feet away from the hole, yeah!” Liu Ruixin said happily.
On the last 9 holes, Liu Ruixin, who came to Pylosford Golf Club for the first time, ran into some trouble. The fairway here is longer and has more undulations. “I tried to save some energy and played relatively solid, but I made a double bogey on the last hole and I felt a little tired,” Liu Ruixin said. She said that her game strategy today is to hit the ball on the fairway and the green as safely as possible. “The rough here is not easy to chip, because I live in Florida, so the green here is a challenge for me. . . I’m always trying to avoid three-putts.”
Liu Ruixin emphasized that patience will be the key to helping him achieve good results in this club. “The fairway is not easy, but if I can maintain patience, I can score low scores. Before this round, I was actually a little nervous and worried regarding dealing with it. The situation on the pitch is not good, but now I believe I can make birdies, so I have more confidence in tomorrow’s contest,” the Chinese girl finally said.
