Q. All right, tell me, just walk me through the round today. Really successful; top the leaderboard today. Just walk me through all the birdies out there and no bogeys, right?
YUKA SASO: Yeah. My shots were very consistent today. I didn't really miss any shots. I chip really well, too. When I hit it close, I hole it. Putting was pretty good, too.
So I think it was pretty calm round, yeah.
Q. Yeah. How important is precision on this course?
YUKA SASO: I think it's pretty important. You have to hit a good shot on tee so you can give yourself a chance to the green.
And you have to putt well.
So, yeah, I think it's pretty important.
Q. Is your preparation or mindset any different knowing this is only a three-day event?
YUKA SASO: No, nothing really change. I just took my time and get ready for this tournament.
Q. The scores here are usually really low. Are you looking to be really aggressive again tomorrow and find all those birdies?
YUKA SASO: I will just stick to my plan and hopefully I can get my birdies tomorrow.
But just want to play my game and try and have fun.
Q. What is your plan, when you say stick to your plan?
YUKA SASO: Hit good tee shots, hit the green, and hopefully make a putt.
Q. Perfect. Easy. Good plan.
YUKA SASO: Yeah.
Q. Yuka, you tend to be hard on yourself. Are you happy with today?
YUKA SASO: Yeah, I'm very happy.
Q. At what number does that become happy?
YUKA SASO: What number like the scores?
Q. Does 64, 66; where is the happy place?
YUKA SASO: That's a very difficult question. I don't know. Even though I play 3-under, 4-under, as long as I was happy with how I played I think I will be happy.
But sometime I play 5-under but you feel like I could have done better, then you feel a little low.
I think it depends on the information, how you played, yeah.
