Q. 7-under par. You were 1-under through nine holes. What did you say to yourself standing on the 10th tee. Nice obviously a nice little pep talk.

JIN YOUNG KO: I mean, didn't do anything on the back nine, but, yeah, I play really nice on the back nine. I don't know what happened. I really tried my best and I just want to keep myself, yeah, it's been a while to playing good score this year, so I'm so happy.

Q. Your group was a combined 16-under par between you three. Obviously some really good mojo out there.

JIN YOUNG KO: Yeah, I play with Ayaka and Rio Takeda. I heard she won seven times on JLPGA Tour. She's like Nelly this year. So I really looking forward to playing with her. She's really good player.

I learn many things from her, so, yeah, it was fun to playing with.

Q. I spoke to Linn Grant earlier who had over a month off before last week. Similar story for you you. You had almost two months off. How much did you miss the game and the Tour?

JIN YOUNG KO: Yeah, I missed five weeks. O was in Korea. I didn't play Korea and China. Last week was my long stretch after the game.

Yeah, last week wasn't good but this week is good start so I'm looking forward to it.
