Quick Quotes


Q. Backed up your 5-under yesterday with another 5-under 66 today. What went well for you out on the golf course?

MATILDA CASTREN: My irons have been really good. I put in the new Titleist irons and they've been working really well. I hit some good shots, especially with like my 7, 9, and pitching wedge, so that really helped.

I made some good putts from like 6 to 15 feet. So, yeah, that really made a difference today.

Q. When did you put the new irons in your bag?

MATILDA CASTREN: Tuesday.

Q. After your win you put in new irons?

MATILDA CASTREN: Well, they felt so good I tried them on the range and played the practice rounds with them. The only little difference was they were a little bit higher, higher flight, like maybe couple yards longer.

So I thought it was perfect. They felt great, so, yeah.

Q. Well they seem to be working. Today was definitely a strange day with a six-hour delay this morning. You've probably been here on the golf course all morning. How did you spend the six hours?

MATILDA CASTREN: I spent the whole day here on the golf course. It was great because there was food all day, friends, and I hung out with the other players and caddies. We had a lot of stuff to talk about. We were checking the radar ever five minutes waiting for the updates.

Actually went kind of quickly. It was mainly the food that kept me here.
