Q. A week after your first win to have a top three performance, how do you walk away from today?
ANGEL YIN: This is like an interview right after my round, a little disappointed because coming into the stretch, I had two really, really in-front-of-my-face birdies that I missed. And then the third one was just a bad club on the last hole which I could have capitalized on, at least given myself a chance, but I had a 30-footer for birdie.
Just looking at the leaderboard right now, I guess I'm happy that I played well but like, you know, I know I was so close to it and I just couldn't perform the last three when it was, like, right in front of my face.
So it was a little bit disappointing performance-wise because I'm not really thinking about last week. I'm thinking about this week.
So that's what I feel right now as I finish.
Q. Overall, still to be able to keep the moment actual going, that's got to be satisfying for the work that you've been putting in this entire year?
ANGEL YIN: Yes, if you look at it in a bigger picture, it is nice, because it's another good week, another solid week for my Solheim points for next year. It was really tough, too, because I was really tired but then I pulled through. So positives, but yeah, I'm always, like, looking at the week I'm playing in, so don't really look behind and before, in the future.
Q. What was the game plan, the strategy going into a day like today?
ANGEL YIN: I mean, aggressive. We're close to the lead, four strokes, and just chase. I did that perfectly the front nine because I haven't been able to perform on my front nine. I was able to pull off a 3-under par. I was thinking okay, you know what I've got my momentum just in the back, and I can do something good.
Unfortunately I couldn't find anything more than a 2-under, which I was able to do more in the previous days. But you know, that was just -- that was the game plan, to be aggressive and chase Minjee and see whoever is in front of me.
Q. How do you hope to carry this kind of play into Malaysia?
ANGEL YIN: Learn from mistakes. Actually made some mistakes in Shanghai, but I just don't feel like I really settled in because I was in such a rush. This week and next week, traveling tonight, it will give us more time to reassess and learn from it and hopefully do better.
Q. What are those mistakes that you would quantify as?
ANGEL YIN: Just like course management stuff and mental stuff on the golf course. But that's just stuff that you're always constantly maintenancing [sic].
