Quick Quotes


Q. All right, here with Pernilla after her second round to the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship presented by P&G. Just talk about your round today. Kind of moved up the leaderboard a little bit.

PERNILLA LINDBERG: Yeah, I didn't miss a fairway all day. I think I missed two greens. Unfortunately last hole I chunked my wedge a little bit, so not the note I wanted to end on, but, yes, that was really the only bad swing. Yes, lots of fairways and lots of greens and approximate feel confident with the putter, too.

Just gave myself lots of chances and took advantage of some of them.

Q. You're the first person we talked to finishing up in the morning wave. How would you compare the conditions to yesterday afternoon?

PERNILLA LINDBERG: Yeah, yesterday was probably the windiest I've ever seen this place in all the years I played here. It was gusty, too. Kind of hard to figure out where it was coming from. For sure calmer this morning. It tried to pick up a little bit still, but a lot cooler so the ball went a little bit shorter but not too bad.

Q. We're in the 18th year of this tournament. What do you enjoy most about this tournament and talk about kind of how you started here and where you are now.

PERNILLA LINDBERG: Yeah, so 2009 was the first time I was here. I caddied for my good friend Karin Sjödin, Swedish player that was on tour back then. I was just waiting for Q-School that fall, so she asked me to come out.

And then 2010 was my rookie year and I haven't missed a year since. I've been here for the last 16 years in a row now. I think the biggest thing is I think the community, how much they love having us here. We can really feel it. I don't think there is any other tournament where as many players and caddies are in host families inside the gates here.

We have a full house this week, host family with three players, three caddies in there, so it's a fun week.
