Quick Quotes


Q. Yu, a fantastic effort in the end. Overall, what are your thoughts after this final day?

YU LIU: I feel like I did well. I committed to my game plan and not much regret except for that putt on 12.

Yeah, that was the only shot that I felt like I could have done better but I didn't. But it is -- it's golf, and I just feel like, yeah, it's just amazing to be able to play in front of my home fans. They were being extremely supportive and really grateful to have them.

Q. Were you checking leaderboards when you could or were you trying to ignore them and focus on your game?

YU LIU: Yeah, I always check leaderboards whenever there is. So I found out on 15th hole that pretty compact leaderboard. A lot of players are around 12, 13, which I sort of the expected because it's playing tricky. It's pretty gusty today and the greens are very hard to read. I felt like I didn't really do a very good job of today.

You know, I hit 18 greens and a lot of birdie opportunities inside 10, 15 feet, but I wasn't able to capitalize a lot of them.

Q. Overall, you talked about yesterday that a year ago you didn't know if this was for you anymore, if you felt that kind of competitiveness to be as good as you were. What does a week like this do for your confidence overall?

YU LIU: Yeah, like I've said, I just love this place so bad that I always see this as a very important point throughout the year. I just feel like this would always be able to give me a good kick to finish the rest of the season strong.

But I feel like this week it has some extra meanings on top of just -- I feel like it plays probably a very important role in my career, and I just feel like having a week like this could help me turn things around, yeah.
