Q. Another really good round, 6-under today again, you're 12-under overall. Just evaluate your day?
ANDREA LEE: Really solid. Another bogey-free round which I'm really pleased with. Hit all the greens, all the fairways and just made some putts out there. Honestly a few of them didn't drop within like ten, 15 feet but overall played really well and hopefully I can keep it going this weekend.
Q. You got that first win about a month ago now. Now you're in the mix to do it again. What changed in your mind after that win that's helped you to this point?
ANDREA LEE: I think it just gave me so much confidence after that win in Portland, and I'm just playing really care free golf, and I'm really relaxed out there. Just having fun. I feel like -- I don't feel the pressure anymore to get that first win. I feel comfortable being atop the leaderboards now, and you know, hopefully I can just keep it rolling.
Q. At what point this season did you go: You know what, I belong here?
ANDREA LEE: Yeah, I think overall, it's just been a really steady season for me. Before that win, I had four other Top 10s and I was just playing really steady golf and I had a lot of trust in my game. The results have been there and played well at sat I could I a couple weeks ago. I just have a lot of confidence going for me right now.
Q. Fun group today. Evaluate that group,
ANDREA LEE: Great group. Lilia Vu and I have grown up together, played junior golf together in southern California since we were like eight years old. So I've known her for forever.
And A Lim is like an older sister to me. She's hilarious, she has a great personality and all three of us were kind of just joking around and having a lot of fun out there today.
Q. Do you have more energy from these crowds that's helping you play such solid golf?
ANDREA LEE: The Koreans, they love golf. They are so passionate, emotional about it. So it's great to feed off of their energy. They are definitely rooting for all the Korean players out here. I'm Korean American, so I feel like they are rooting for me, too, and it's nice to have that.
Q. How is Grandpa doing? Is he excited?
ANDREA LEE: Yeah, I haven't talked to Grandpa yet but I think he might try to come out on Sunday but I don't know if he can walk this golf course because it's super hilly. But I'll definitely see him at some point.
