Q. All right, here with Yan Liu after her first round at the JM Eagle LA Championship. A career low round for you today. Did it feel like a career low round? Just tell me your thoughts after that round.
YAN LIU: Well, I think today everything been perfect, but not my driver. But just little things. Right now my driver is a little too much fade, but I will figure out tomorrow.
Q. What was good today about your round? Was it iron shots? What did you do good today?
YAN LIU: I think my approach shot and my putt, yeah, it's been good today. And the green is very fast and break a lot, but really good read line today.
Q. What do you like about this course? Do you feel like this is a scorable course?
YAN LIU: Well, I think the course very challenge. When I had the practice round I feel like this major course. Far and greens firm and, yeah, the weather is a little colder today. Yeah, it's going to be more cold I think tomorrow.
So I think the course -- well, if I can hit low shots it's really, really impress.
Q. Coming into today, did you think you could shoot a 9-under out here?
YAN LIU: No, actually my first hole I got a bogey. Yeah, so after that I feel -- well, because I think my first hole little nervous. I had high expectations for myself and I was nervous on the first hole.
But I got bogey and next hole I tell myself, you have to be calm and you have to be confident and be brave. You can do it.
Yeah, just talk with myself.
Q. So you were a little bit more brave going into the next holes?
YAN LIU: Yes.
Q. Tell me a little bit about the eagle on 16.
YAN LIU: Oh, that one is a little lucky, though. I had my driver a little -- I hit the cart path so go far, but then like I think only 125 to the pin and it's in the rough and a little downwind, so I just pick my 48.
So, yeah, like two yard for eagle.
Q. Did you notice while you were out there, did you see that Ashleigh shot a 9-under earlier today? Did you think, oh, I can do that, too?
YAN LIU: I didn't -- I think turn back nine I saw the leaderboard is minus-9. I saw the leaderboard, that it's 9-under. I didn't think about the score. I just hit one shot at a time. Yeah, I think I do pretty good today. I'm going to keep tomorrow.
Q. I think this is your first lead or co-lead on the Tour; is that right? After the first round at least.
YAN LIU: First time I think.
Q. How does that make you feel? What will you do knowing you're in the lead going into tomorrow?
YAN LIU: Just trust myself. I work hard and sometime I just need a little breathe. So give me a little some push to me to the low score, yeah.
