Quick Quotes


Q. All right, I'm here with Soo Bin Joo at the ShopRite LPG Classic. Congratulations on a great finish. Great shot on the last hole. Talk us through your last hole and coming in.

SOO BIN JOO: I was so nervous because I made a bogey yesterday on the last hole and I made a stupid mistake, but I wasn't trying to make that stupid mistake on the last hole. I was trying to be myself and don't make the same mistake as yesterday.

Yeah, and then I think that helped me a lot. (Smiling.)

Q. You had two back-to-back early birdies. Do you think that helped your momentum for the day?

SOO BIN JOO: Yeah, it really did. I thought, yeah, it helped me a lot, and it put me in a good mood and a good energy.

Yeah, that happened me a lot.

Q. And this is your best finish so far this year, and especially as an LPGA Tour rookie, how do you think this is going to help your confidence in your next stretch of tournaments?

And I just want to stay as me and do what I have to do always and don't be lazy, yeah.

Yeah that, helped a lot.
