Q. All right, Megan, wind picked up a little bit at the end, but just take me through some the differences between day one and day two here.
MEGAN KHANG: Definitely different playing in the morning and afternoon. Everyone kind of told us that the afternoon definitely picks up, and they were absolutely right about that. They were some shots out there that I thought I hit perfect and I either left a little short or went a little past.
Everyone is playing in that condition in the afternoon, so you just kind of have to embrace it.
Q. What shots in particular when you say something like that stands out to you?
MEGAN KHANG: You know, funny enough, what is it, my 17th hole was No. 8 today, and I had like 77 yards to the pin.
I thought I hit it perfect, and then I end up -- I played a little more wind than I thought, and, you know, didn't help me as much. So I ended up coming back short, and then I chipped in.
So, yeah, that was really funny. You know, sometimes that's just golf.
Q. Uh-huh. Your back nine, which was the front nine today, definitely a string of birdies there. Take me through what was working so well for you.
MEGAN KHANG: What did I birdie? No, I birdied -- yeah, no, definitely gave myself a lot of chances today on the back nine. It was a little slow start on my front nine, but just kind of kept at it and knew my game was coming along and I could hit the shots I wanted to.
Fortunate enough to hit some really good shots in on 3 and 4. You know, 4 I got a very fortunate kick. I thought my ball was going to kick right, but fortunately stayed on the top tier. I told Jack, let's capitalize on this.
So managed to get that one in.
On 7, reachable par-5. Got there in two and hit a horrific first putt. I think I had like 40 feet for eagle and I pretty much had like 20 feet for birdie. Horrific putt.
But, you know, Sarah and Stephanie stuck it in close and I was like, I'm not going to be the only one who like hits the green and ends up making par and the girls who had to lay up make birdie.
So drained that one in.
Then 8, fortunate to chip in.
Q. This is a day where there is not a lot of low scores out there. What does it mean to you that even just a solid day like today can still put you up in contention?
MEGAN KHANG: I mean, any day under par is definitely a good day. I mean, to hear that not a lot of people shot low scores today, it's definitely -- course is definitely proving to be a challenge, not only just walking, but playing on.
And so, you know, I mean, any time I shoot a round under par it's a great day. As a golfer we're never satisfied, so we're just going to pick up some lessons along the way and try to learn from them and really just kind of remind myself to take my time out there because these greens do get bumpy and a little slow towards the afternoon.
So I got to take a mental note of that and actually apply it instead of just saying it.
Q. You'll have a late afternoon tee time tomorrow like you had today. What will you take away from a round like today as you take on tomorrow?
MEGAN KHANG: Definitely most importantly the speed, because, I mean, I left quite a few putts short today that in the morning I definitely would've got to the hole or gotten a little past it.
Again, every time we step on these greens, a little less people given the cut, but, again, just going to have to make a mental note of that and kind of pay attention to where people have been stepping and try to get the right bounces on the greens.
