Q. All right here with Yu Liu, after the second round in Arkansas. Tell me how great is it to go bogey-free today. I know you had a couple bogeys yesterday. What did you learn and how did you adapt to go bogey-free today?
YU LIU: Today, this golf course, it's my fourth time being here, but I've never really had any good results. I just feel like I was maybe being a little too aggressive, if anything.
So this week I was just really trying to hit as many fairways as possible, even if that means hitting it really short off the tee, and just give myself as many opportunities from the fairways as possible.
Q. What is it about this course that requires so much precision? I feel like you have to hit the fairways and greens here.
YU LIU: Yeah, because the fairways are pretty tight here. Once you're in the fairway it's pretty scorable. Every week there will be girls who are on top of their game, so you'll see a lot of low scores out here; you'll also see some relatively higher scores.
Q. Yeah, I feel like this is one of the lowest rounds. How do you find those birdies? Is it your putting that's helping you, just hitting it close to the pin?
YU LIU: Yeah, I got a pretty decent amount of opportunities out there today; just the first couple holes I wasn't able to convert a lot of them.
But I stayed pretty patient out there, and then the putts just were able to drop starting when I made the turn. Just that putt on No. 9 really changed the momentum.
I was trying to be a little aggressive, if anything, and then I feel like I hit it a touch too hard. Thankfully it went in. I feel like that really opened up.
Q. Going into tomorrow, first I want to talk about your eagle there on 18. Can you just take me through that hole.
YU LIU: Yeah, the last hole, it's really important to hit fairways, so all I thought about was just trying to hit the fairway and give myself an opportunity to reach the green. Thankfully I hit a pretty good drive and I had about 204 to the pin and hit my 4-hybrid to about five feet and made the putt.
Q. Awesome. Last question: Going into tomorrow, are you looking to really play more aggressive now that you're sitting up on the leaderboard, or are you just going to see what the day brings?
YU LIU: Yeah, I think playing aggressive is never really a good game plan for me, so like just take it shot by shot and of course try to be a little more aggressive, if anything, because there is only a couple more events left this season.
Just not really having a good year, being pretty close to that borderline of top 100, and I feel like I really need some good weeks. It's a good start.
