Q. All right, here again with Jenny Shin after the second round to the El Caballero. Put together two solid rounds so far. How are you feeling overall after two days?
JENNY SHIN: Today was a battle. I feel like I did a better job playing golf today than yesterday. Yesterday had a few good lucks going towards my way and my shots were really good.
On the contrary, today I think I hit six fairways and 12 greens, which is pretty horrific around here. Got up and down a lot, so really scrambled.
Yeah, proud of myself for just holding on.
Q. Yeah. How big is course management this week on this type of course?
JENNY SHIN: Yeah, thank God it's not poana. There are some slopes where if you just have a little bit too much backspin it just comes off the green. So being bent with a bit of bermuda does help quite a bit.
But really I feel like if you can hit the middle of the fairway and middle of the green, I mean, when do you ever need golf management? You can just flag it.
Q. Talk me through the eagle on 16 and how that maybe helped the round today.
JENNY SHIN: Yeah, first time I hit a really good tee shot there. Finally on the fairway. So 201 yards to the pin I needed to get it on the top for a chance for eagle. I decided to hit a 3-hybrid which carries around 200.
My caddie was like, you can't be long here. I said, I'm going to cut it in and it's going to be good. I did exactly what I said. Cut it right into the slope and kind of just trickled over.
But, yeah, really good putt; big swinging left to right. But the fact that it was a little bit uphill and then down helped me to be a little bit aggressive.
So, yeah, really happy.
Q. How long was the putt?
JENNY SHIN: I would say about eight yards.
Q. Just heading into the weekend, sitting up there on the leaderboard, what's the plan? How do you dial in and play more good golf?
JENNY SHIN: Missed the green quite a few times today not because of a bad shot, but I was aiming right too far right. I am probably going to work on alignment and a bit of green reading after, and then maybe get a workout and prep for tomorrow.
