Q. Heather, just talk to me about your round today and your experience so far at Stage II. Right on the cut line right now. Just talk about what's the game plan for the rest of the day. All you can do is sit and wait. What are you going to do to distract yourself? What's going on?
HEATHER LIN: I probably will just relax because there is really nothing I can do at this point because I already finished my round.
I guess that's good and bad. If you're playing early you don't have to -- I feel like people out there in the afternoon, if you have an idea what the cut line will be will be a lot more stressful, so I'm glad I'm finished now.
Although if I didn't make it, that's fine. I feel like I tried my best. I didn't really have my best game this week from just coming from Epson Tour. We've been playing a lot of golf in the last two months. We played nine events in the last ten weeks, and then just as my rookie season I thought that was a lot.
I felt like I physically managed pretty well to be here and feel prepared and ready. Yeah, it's a lot of golf.
Q. Yeah. And talk about how did the Epson Tour prepare you for this week with all the events? How did to prepare you for kind of this week after a long stretch of events?
HEATHER LIN: Yeah, I feel like for like a four-day event I definitely got -- like I'm doing better at pacing myself like not to wear myself out early in the week. Obviously we're playing two different courses, too, so we have to play two different practice rounds.
So I was here last year, so I knew the course pretty well. Obviously this year the weather is much, much better. I just tried to do like as minimum as I know and still feel prepared.
Q. Perfect.
HEATHER LIN: Yeah, that's about it.
Q. And then I guess you said you didn't have your A-game.
HEATHER LIN: Uh-huh.
Q. What kind of saved you this week as far as your game?
HEATHER LIN: Yeah, definitely my putting actually. Really struggled with my putting all year. Ball striking has always been my biggest strength, greens in regulation and iron game. This week I don't know if it's from a lot of golf, my body felt a little tired, I just don't hit it great. Hit a lot of balls in the water. In the first two days I have four, five balls in the water.
But I made a lot of good par saves and made some good birdie putts, too. But, I mean, in that off week last week after we played in Daytona, I did a lot of work back in Orlando with my coach with my putting and my mentor coach on my routine and all that.
I think that definitely helped save me this week for sure. Yeah, I don't have any three-putt this week, yeah.
