Q. Here with Angela Stanford. Angela, I want to know the mindset before you tee'd off today, the mindset after the front nine as well.
ANGELA STANFORD: You know, this morning it was really calm. We tee'd off at 7:29. It was awesome. For about six holes it was really nice and I was okay. Like I just felt like it's going to be a good day.
And then it got kind of bumpy around 8, 9, 10. Around the turn kind of got frustrated because I just want to play. Like that's my entire career I just want to play.
I hate missing cuts. I've just always hated missing cuts. I got kind of frustrated on the back because I'm like, no, I want to play.
So just kind of put my head down and basically just said whatever you can do to get it in the hole, get it in the hole.
Q. And that's kind of what I did. Walk me through those last couple holes.
ANGELA STANFORD: So it was 14 was the first birdie on the back.
I just missed a really makable putt on 13.
14 I just told myself, just get back to basics. Do what you're supposed to do with your putting stroke and just roll the ball.
That was actually a really good putt.
15 was a good putt; lipped out.
16 was a great shot in; made a great putt.
Great two putt on 17.
18 I'm like I just got to give myself a chance.
Thought about my I Mike Wright, one of my former instructors on the tee. Just launch it off 18. And thought about my current instructor, Todd Kolb on that chip shot.
I'm grateful that I've had people in my life that have helped me with so many things along the way.
Q. What happened with that chip and what are some of the first emotions you had there on the green looking up at the sky?
ANGELA STANFORD: Well, I said to my caddie walking up, I said, well, it's probably good it's in the grass and not a bunker because you've seen my bunker game.
But then I think it was like 20 yards to get it on the green. I just told myself, I've hit this shot a number of times. Just stay -- my thing there is just stay left. Keep your weight left and just hit a good shot.
I'm surprised it went in. Just I think that was just gratitude that I get to play two more days.
Like that's all I really want to do. That's where my passion is. I'm excited to get to play two more.
Q. To be able to play two more days and also from the getgo, even when you said this could potentially be the last event, Annika is still on the horizon making I want to say the weekend but obviously Friday, Saturday. What does it mean to you to kind of have this moment and knowing that there is still be some good golf left?
ANGELA STANFORD: Yeah, you can't finish in the top 10 if you don't play the weekend, so I had to get that part first.
So anything can happen out here. The leader I think is at 9-under. I mean, that's a lot. You know, I'll just chip away at it the next two days and see what happens.
