Q. Here with Hae Ran Ryu. Another solid day. You're leading now here at LPGA Q-Series. Just walk me through your day.
HAE RAN RYU: Honestly, I wanted to play well coming into the Q-School. I think I got a little ambitious at the beginning today, but I was able to finish with a bogey-free round. I was a little tired towards the end so I missed some birdie chances.
Q. Even though you missed those birdie chances, were there any highlights or any of those birdies really stand out to you today?
HAE RAN RYU: I would say the highlight of today would be the last birdie, which I made on No. 16. I think that is the most memorable. It was getting a little boring towards the end, but it helped me finish strong.
Q. Obviously one round left. Now that you're leading I feel like I can ask you this question. What would it mean to you to get an LPGA Tour card? I know you probably dreamt of that your whole life.
HAE RAN RYU: Korean golf has been really strong and a lot of older Korean players have done really well on this tour. I think that I'm a step closer to making that dream come true of earning the LPGA status.
I have one more day left. I know that I'm leading, so it would being good to win. Even if I don't, I think it will still be a memorable tournament and helpful for me to grow as a player, too.
Q. Just finally, like you said there is a lot of Korean players that are very successful out here. I know Choi Na-Yeon just retired this season. Any of those players you looked up or maybe has mentored you?
HAE RAN RYU: I think that all of the Korean LPGA players on tour have had a successful career. I don't have anyone specific in mind. They've all done perfectly well. So I would say that I grew up watching all of them.
