Q. What a rounds of golf. Just the seventh time since 1979 the LPGA Tour that a player has had three eagles in the round. Where does that rank in the golf that you've played in your career?

LUCY LI: Yeah, I mean, that was crazy. 60 is the lowest round I've ever shot. With two three putts, if you told me on the fourth hole I was going to shoot 60 I would've thought you were out of your mind.

The eagle I made on 8, that was crazy. I hit a low hook around the tree and couldn't see it, but it went in. That pin is just really tough. That literally got my round going.

Q. Let's talk about the 14th hole. Talk me through the second shot.

LUCY LI: Yeah, 14 I think, honestly, the tee shot was really important for me because I played this course last year and I was having a good round. Ended up hitting into the water, so just in my mind I was like, just got to hit a good tee shot here. I know I hit it long enough that the second shot won't be too hard.

So hitting a pretty good te shot was huge, and then having a perfect number for a 5-iron in, yeah, I didn't think I hit it that close but that was really nice to make another eagle. And then 18 was crazy.
