Quick Quotes


Q. Nelly, congratulations on a hard-fought win today. Took a three-stroke lead into today. Saw the momentum shift back and forth between you and Leona throughout the round. What was the biggest challenge today?

NELLY KORDA: Leona's a really good player. She kept me on my toes all day. You know, I had to play good golf. There were a lot of birdie opportunities out here. I started off a little rough not hitting many fairways, but kept telling myself to battle through it and just to have fun out here.

Q. We talked yesterday about your renewed perspective, just not putting too much pressure on yourself. Seeing that strategy pay off, how will you use that going forward?

NELLY KORDA: I think it's always going to kind of be a battle. You're going to go and say one week it's going to be a lot easier than others. As long as I kind of have that in the back of my head I think it's a good first step.

Q. Definitely took a great step in the right direction. Congratulations on your second win of the season.

NELLY KORDA: Thank you.
