Q. Here with Carlota Ciganda, a 1-under 71 today. Played in the afternoon today; very different conditions. What was today like for you?
CARLOTA CIGANDA: It was a tough day. Took three hours to play the front nine, so it's just, it's a tough course. It's a new course. It was really windy today. The front nine is playing quite tricky with the side winds.
Pretty happy on the front nine with 1-under, and then I think I got a little tired mentally. It's been a long day, lots of hours here, but I'm happy the way I came back after those two bogeys, 11 and 12; I birdied 15, the par-5, and I three-putted 18.
It's always tough to make three-putts on the last putt, but I'm happy with the round and how I am for the weekend.
Q. Were you trying to be a little more aggressive knowing what the weekend will bring with the weather?
CARLOTA CIGANDA: Yeah, I did try to be as aggressive as every other day. I know tomorrow looks not very good the weather, lots of rain coming. I still have the weekend, play two days, or the a least one into the weekend, and, I mean, there is not much you can do against the weather.
Just try my best again and see what happens.
Q. Awesome. Can you tell me about that birdie you made on 15 or any other holes you thought were particularly key for you today?
CARLOTA CIGANDA: Yeah, so 15 it was quite funny, because I (wind interference) in the hazard, in the lake, so I -- the ball was in the hazard in the water but it was a little bit of a grass, so I just took my socks off, shoes off, hit a little 54 to like 15, 18 feet and made the birdie.
So that was a big plus, because I'm thinking an about par with up and down and maybe a bogey, so that was a great birdie. Had a couple good chances coming on 16 and 18, but I think it's always good to shoot under par, especially on this course.
I think we can see like the scores, it's going pretty tough, so quite happy.
