Kraft Nabisco 2009 - 1st Round Interview

Michelle Wie, 37-34=71 (-1)

Q. Michelle, three birdies, two bogeys today, 1 under, a good start for the first major championship of the year.
MICHELLE WIE: Yeah. For sure. I was a little shaky at the beginning, but I was able to calm myself, and I made some good shots, and I feel confident with that.

Q. Golf course in excellent shape. Greens are a little firm, but yet they will hold a shot, a good shot.
MICHELLE WIE: Yeah. For sure. I've never seen this golf course in better condition. They've done a great job here.

Q. Do you remember a round with so many six to eight foot putts?
MICHELLE WIE: I know. It's so odd, but thankfully they went in, and my stroke is good, so hopefully tomorrow it'll be for birdie.

Q. Talk about feeling the jitters. You've played in plenty of majors. What was different about this one that maybe caused some jitters?
MICHELLE WIE: Just back at this course. This is my first major in a while, and it was excitement, but just a little jittery, but I calmed it down pretty quickly.
