Q: You must have come late did you?

Wools-Cobb: I finished birdie-birdie at eight and nine. I hit a really good four iron into eight to about five foot. My yardage was 185 (metres). That was one of the best shots I hit all day. It (eighth) is pretty brutal.

Q: And nine?

Wools-Cobb: I hit nine iron to about seven feet. I was feeling comfortable and I hit driver off the tee. Then I hit a little fade off the water from 135 (metres). It was a little left-to-righter, seven feet.

Q: Any other highlights?

I just had a really good run on the front nine. I was one-over early, then I birdied 16, 17, 18 which kickstarted it. All three I hit wedges in.

Q: Tell me about your career as a pro?

Wools-Cobb: It’s been a year now. This time last year I played the Austrlaian Open I played as a pro, it was my second event as a pro. I missed the cut at The Lakes, really battled. This is my third Aussie Open in a row.

Q:  What else is happening with your career?

Wools-Cobb: I’ve been playing a bit in Asia. I went to Asian Tour but I only had a handful of starts, so I played Asian Development Tour. It’s tough over there. The fields are good for the amount of money you’re playing for. I was mainly in Malaysia, and the air quality’s not so good there. I’ve been getting pretty sick. I struggle with athsma.

Q: This week must have been tough then, with the smoke?

Wools-Cobb: Mainly over there it’s the pollution, and there was a bushfire as well. It was toxic. I pulled out of a couple of events so it’s nice to be back playing.
