Q. Here with Megan Khang. Another great round. Are you just a mudder? Played well on Sunday in some wet conditions; been playing well this week.
MEGAN KHANG: Honestly, it's been quite helpful that it's been lift, clean, and place. I know this golf course is in such good condition. I wish we were playing it the way it was meant to be played wetness-wise, but just trying to make the best of it.
Everyone has ball in hand, and you just kind of make be you take advantage of it and hit the fairways so you can get the mud off the balls and try to stick them close.
Q. What stood out today as far as your 6-under?
MEGAN KHANG: I definitely hit some wedge shots well today. I had one hiccup today with the bogey. Other than that, took advantage of the shorter par-4s on the front side and the par-5s and was really able to dial in my wedges.
So that was definitely a plus.
And then to make the putts as well for birdie, it was definitely a confidence booster.
Q. You had a big Sunday in Toledo. To come here off that, be refreshed and play some dang good golf, how much confidence did Sunday give you coming into this week?
MEGAN KHANG: It definitely gave my confidence. I know I've been stroking the ball well and hitting the ball well and the putts were going in. Honestly, this morning I like fatted one on the range and I messed up a nerve in my hand, so I was running around trying to get that handled.
I didn't know if I was going to play the whole round today or not today. Yeah, I hit 20 balls on the range and fatted one, ran around, tried to figure things out.
I joked with Jack. I was like, we've done practice rounds without warming up before, so let's just go out there and give it our best shot and really not put too much pressure on ourselves.
If it gets too painful, we might have to withdraw. Thankfully didn't and was able to put together a great round.
Q. Explain to me what that stress is like and what it's like trying to calm that stress down before you go tee off?
MEGAN KHANG: Definitely quite stressful, because, I mean, I'm a pretty laid back player as well so I take probably an hour or less to warmup.
And so I putt first and that was 15, 20 minutes, and by the time I got to the range I was only like ten minutes in and just got to my 6-iron and I fatted it. I was like, oh, my goodness.
So I was freaking out. One of the physios, personal physios was like, here, let me help you out. I sweat so much that the tape didn't stay on, so I had to run to our LPGA physio, and I think it was like 1:10 by that time. I was like, hey, I'm really sorry. Can I please jump in front and get my wrist taped because I'm next on the tee?
I honestly didn't even know where the physio was so I ran around a loop and then got it taped. Thankful for the players and physio for letting me sneak in there.
Ran back to the tee, looked at Jack, I was out of breath and sweating so much and I was like, I don't know if I can make it.
Yeah, no, I mean, at the end of the day we all play golf. We do this for a living. We start young and all know how to hit the ball. I just went back to that mentality and just really felt like, hey, let's just go out there and have fun like we normally do.
Q. I guess beware the injured golfer, as they say.
MEGAN KHANG: I was joking around. I know everyone is talking about the little bug going around, and so like I know a couple girls who played really well with a bug.
I was like, oh, look at that. Like, yeah, you're worried about one thing, and then that happened to me on the range and I was like, oh, my goodness, what's going on.
Q. Into the weekend. Got a few back, but have another sniff at it.
MEGAN KHANG: Definitely. I mean, this course is definitely gettable course, and I think you just have to stay within yourself. You'll get some shots where they're going to give you some and you're definitely have going to have to take it where middle of the green is perfectly fine.
Just go out there, and, again, to keep it light and have some fun.
