Tatsunori Mukaga, who is the host club Pro of this week's venue, Toride Kokusai GC played bogey free 8 birdies round to make a rocket start.

Amateurs who joined him today said, "we were excited to see great accurate & distance shots today."

Tatsunori was a bit embarrass about getting praised, but said "as for today, my shots were accurate. I have become club host Pro of this Toride Kokusai GC from April. I hope many guest will come to the course and enjoy."

Tatsunori did have some experience on this venue as he has been entering the Abema TV Tour tournaments held here, but he didn't have much chance to play on the West Course.
"Sorry, I am too new to this course", he joked.

But he managed to score 62. He managed to control his putting on the tough Korai greens.
"I learned my golf on Korai greens, so I was able to manage."

Tatsunori made 4 straight birdies from 13th to make the golf course sponsor happy.
"I am grateful for their hospitalities. They welcome me very warmly every time."

Tomorrow he will be playing on East Course.
"Now I must adjust to bent greens. I will go practice right away. I will make good adjustment and will try to play another great round tomorrow. I will be more than happy if I could be in the contention on Sunday."
