Q. Here alongside red hot Ryann O'Toole. Just on fire on the front nine today. What was the key to the hot start?

RYANN O'TOOLE: Yeah, I think just staying patient. I know there is a lot of birdies out on this golf course. The greens are rolling well. I knew coming into this week that my putter has been working, so was hoping that could be an advantage.

Funny, I felt like swing kind of felt off this week, but seemed to work out just fine.

Q. What's come together with your putting in recent weeks?

RYANN O'TOOLE: I just am hitting lines. I have it dialed town down to where it's very simple and I'm sticking to those key putting stroke thoughts and it's really working out for me.

Q. You played well here in the past as well; two Top 10s. What is it that is the key to being successful here at Pinnacle Country Club?

RYANN O'TOOLE: It's three rounds. I think girls come out firing quickly, so to come out and get this low round early helps. I feel like I tend to be a slower starter, so I'm really happy to kind of come out and get 7-under today.

I definitely felt like I left a lot out there still, as much as -- eight birdies, but I still felt like there was a ton left out there, especially on the back side.

I look forward to starting on this side first and seeing what I can do.

Q. That's a scary though, left a lot out there. Like you said, still early. What are you going to do the rest of the day?

RYANN O'TOOLE: Yeah, just going to do a cool-down practice, couple putts, hit some balls, and probably go check out Bentonville, get a tea somewhere, walk around. There is a lot to do here. Rogers, Arkansas is pretty fun. I do like coming here.
