Q. Charley, how satisfied are you with your first round here at the Scottish Open?
CHARLEY HULL: Yeah, it was good. A shame I bogeyed the last hole, but just come up a bit short. And, yeah, no, it’s good. I love the golf course. I’m not a fan of links, will but I love this golf course. I think it’s great.
Q. What is that you’re not a fan of?
CHARLEY HULL: I like links, but I just find it hard to play in a tournament. I just love tree line-type golf courses, where links I find is find very, very there in front of you. Can’t really visualize it very well, but I really like this golf course.
Q. What is it that you do like about it? Because it does seem very different, it’s modern but —
CHARLEY HULL: I don’t know, it’s just — I don’t know what it is, but I just like it.
Q. And how do you feel about your form then generally over this summer?
CHARLEY HULL: Yeah, feels good. I feel in good form at the minute. I think I’ve played — by the end of this, next week, I’ve played 10 weeks out of 12, so that’s a lot of golf. So I’m just getting tired. I’m turning up to events quite late. Didn’t get here till Tuesday night. So just playing. Quite like that attitude actually.
Q. It could work, could be just about feel rather than preparation?
CHARLEY HULL: 100 percent. I prepared well winter and all throughout the year. So I’m coming to the event prepared, just a bit late, turn my mind off on the Monday.
Q. And what about this field? This is a strong field. Is it good to test yourself against that?
CHARLEY HULL: Yes, a normal LPGA field. It’s good to have some of the girls here to join the Tour, so it’s good.
Q. Good luck tomorrow.
