Q. All right, here with Madelene Sagstrom after the second round of the Kroger Queen City Championship. Great playing today. Can you walk us through your round and birdies out there?
MADELENE SAGSTROM: It was very steady from my side today I would say. I think I hit all the greens, so gave myself a lot of chances.
I don't even really remember where I made birdies, but I made a good one on 7 today, which I was really happy about. I made a bit of a boo-boo on that hole yesterday, so happy to change up the game plan and get a birdie from it.
But, I mean, when you hit it solid off the tee, just kept giving myself chances on the green. Some were not very close and some putts were very close to going in, so there is definitely more in the tank.
Q. And you said you hit the greens. Do you feel like you hit them very close, like putting was on fire a little bit?
MADELENE SAGSTROM: A little bit of both. I hit some quite close and I took advantage of some, and I hit some really far away, but I hit a lot of really, really good putts today. A lot of putts looked like they were going to go in but they kind of just didn't.
My speed was really on pointe and everything felt kind of good, so it was a very easy 4-under.
Q. How important is a bogey-free round out here?
MADELENE SAGSTROM: Well, I had three last week, so I'm kind of learning to play bogey-free now. I kind of like it. Every time you don't drop a shot it's good. You're gaining on the field by not dropping shots.
So very good. Very happy with that. I think it just proves that my game is getting very consistent; not really having those big misses.
So I think that's how you keep bogeys off the card, and I've been doing that four out of five rounds now.
Q. Amazing. Solheim Cup, two weeks away. How are you using this week to prepare for that, get your game in order?
MADELENE SAGSTROM: I think going into getting a pick for Solheim my form might not have been where I wanted it to be, might not have been the best. Definitely not performing the best on our team.
So I kind of knew I wanted to play these weeks to get myself some good rounds under pressure, wanting to play well.
For me it's all about finding that little bit of form. I've been working hard on my game but not really seeing the results, so I'm starting to see them now and I'm really, really happy where it's heading.
I feel excited about going to Solheim with the mindset of playing well and not just holding it together.
These weeks have been great, and I'm happy to play well this week being too.
Q. And heading into tomorrow and the weekend, what are some of the goals you have?
MADELENE SAGSTROM: I think I've been trying to keep my bottom level higher. That's what I've been doing well. My putter is not on fire yet and I come from being a good putter, so I feel quite happy that the rest of the game is getting really good.
I'm just going to keep that up. I'm going to go have some of lunch, hit some putts, hit a few shots just to kind of neutralize everything, and then just go out, play one shot at a time.
