Q. Really solid start to your week here in Korea, 69 today. How did you like Oak Valley?
STEPHANIE KYRIACOU: I mean, it's hilly, so it's a fun little walk. But the greens are really nice. They are really slick and quick, which is when I think I putt my best.
Yeah, lots of undulations, so I think it's going to be tricky for everyone. It's good weather, great greens, not much more you could ask for.
Q. How many no-cut events have you played in during your time? I would say probably very few.
STEPHANIE KYRIACOU: Yeah, I honestly don't know. I'm going to say very few, too. This might be the first. Yeah, this might be the first. I've got no idea.
Q. But does that free you up a little bit when you're out there?
STEPHANIE KYRIACOU: Yeah, I think it does. I think where I am now in regards to like CME and stuff, it's kind of a good week to push and try to get into CME. I had a bit of a rocky start to the year. I have had some good results to work my day down, so trying to get my final nudge.
Q. You were saying you've been playing 13 of the last 14 weeks, a lot of golf. How have you maintained your energy? How have you survived that much golf?
STEPHANIE KYRIACOU: I don't know. I think now, especially with the time zones and everything, this week is kind of a little bit more draining than the rest. I've got my physio out here. The body is physically fine. It's the mental stuff that gets a bit tiring. The last few weeks, I've just been coming to the course, getting done what I need to get done and just leaving instead of hanging out all that extra time, and then just going home and chilling.
Q. We're coming upon the end of your rookie season, but just assess your career. To be 75th in CME right now as a rock is pretty solid.
STEPHANIE KYRIACOU: Yeah, I guess results-wise, I didn't play as good as I wanted to. I struggled at the start but there's lots of positives to take away from this year. I feel like I've gotten better as a golfer. Now on the LPGA Tour, you're competing against the best. Yeah, I guess 75 is good but aiming to be a lot better next year.
