Q. All right, here with Sei Young Kim. Great round today. Way to end it, a near albatross on the 18th. Walk me through the last shot.
SEI YOUNG KIM: Yeah, from the tee shot little pulled it and it was miss it left bunker, so I had a good luck.
And then from the second shot to the pin is 200 meters, and then if I hit over the pin it's no chance to make the birdie, so I had to pitch front edge.
Yeah, I hit solid and pitch front edge and it was almost make it.
Yeah, I'm very happy to that. I never had an albatross in my life, so it was close, yeah.
Q. Room to grow, I guess. Pretty solid round. I know it was kind of slow in the first nine holes, but you really picked to the last four or five. Walk me through what your mindset was on the last few holes.
SEI YOUNG KIM: Yeah, just patient. Just I know I played quite solid last week, so, yeah, so I had a good vibe, so, yeah, just wait and then just keep it simple and relaxed and then birdie came to me. (Laughter.)
Q. I mean, ending your round like that, having some momentum, you're going to be one or two back heading into tomorrow, what does that do for your confidence, for your attitude as you look to chase down a win?
SEI YOUNG KIM: Couple players had last couple holes, so might be they couple shot, yeah, front of me. So I just keep what I did last couple days, and then simple and just go, yeah, move forward. Yeah.
Q. You said you played well last week. Have you been feeling like your game has been where you want it to be, or was last week a breath of fresh air?
SEI YOUNG KIM: Yeah, I mean, last week I -- first and second round wasn't good, and then after that I got the how to control the my shots. So, yeah, it's feel like getting better is my shot and condition, yeah.
Q. Do you like to chase or would you rather hold the lead?
SEI YOUNG KIM: Hopefully. Yeah, hopefully. I just do my best, yeah.
Q. Just one more. Tell me, you have family here.
SEI YOUNG KIM: Yes.
Q. I saw you taking photographs with all your cousins. How cool is it to be able to play this well in front of your family?
