(Ep 224) Czech Ladies Open Round 1 with Natalie Saint Germain & Jana Melichova

yeah i was so excited that when i found out i could play um i love coming back to this place i have good memories um around this course and what's better is that my boyfriend came to caddy for me so that helped a lot and then yeah overall I'm happy, but I don't think I'm satisfied with my result.

I feel like I left a few shots out there.

My long game was pretty good, but my putting and short game could be better.

But yeah, the conditions are really, really good this year.

Yes, so for those that won't know about the conditions at Barone this week, it is hot.

Very, very, very hot.

Just how difficult is it sometimes for you as a player to try and keep your cool sometimes, especially when it's really, really hot? Do you find that a challenge sometimes? Like you just want to go...

Yeah, I mean I try not to let it bother me too much it's obviously the same for everybody so For me, it's just so important to hydrate.

Well, I bought a huge Like pack of electrolytes for this week.

I feel like we've already gone like through half of it.

I

i mean i mean to be fair i thought it may have been a food packet in one day yeah

yeah i mean that and also uh sometimes you might not get as hungry in this kind of heat but it's so important to just keep eating anything like every three holes a little something and yeah also i had like a heat exhaustion in one of the college tournaments um in the spring semester so yeah i was advised what to do like better next time so

So in terms of the golf course, how would you describe the conditions out there? Challenging, like maybe rewarding sometimes? How would you describe it?

I think there's a lot of birdie opportunities.

It's not playing too long.

A lot of the par fives are reachable in two.

And yeah, I think if you have a good day, like 10 under is just...

It does not seem impossible for these players out here, and I know they're so good, but it's a great course where it rewards you when you have your game that week.

So last thing on the golfing front, first of all, how would you describe your day to day? And then second of all, is there a shot at all that stands out in particular?

You mean how I got ready for this tournament?

No, so what I mean by that is in terms of out of every shot that you play, there's one that sticks out.

Oh, yeah.

Like

your kind of best shot.
