Quick Quotes


Q. All right, I'm here with Bailey Tardy after her second round at Blue Bay LPGA. How did you feel about your game today? Talk us through your round.

BAILEY TARDY: I hit the ball really well out there. Missed some putts, but, yeah, just stayed patient pretty much all day and just tried to say consistent.

Q. This is your first time at Blue Bay I assume. What have you noticed about the course that suits your eye? Anything of note?

BAILEY TARDY: The golf course is beautiful. It's in really good shape. Really have to work on placement on the greens. You can get in some bad spots if you're not careful.

So, yeah, just definitely focusing on where you're hitting it into the green.

Q. It's still early in the 2024 season, but what have you been up to lately?

BAILEY TARDY: Not much. Just trying to prepare for the season and knocking the rust off a little bit. Hanging with my dog. Yeah that's about it.

Q. And how does it feel to see some good numbers early in the season?

BAILEY TARDY: It's great, especially the conditions weren't great yesterday and the wind pretty much stayed the same for today. To be able to post under-par rounds in the conditions, I'm pretty proud of myself.

Q. You finished early today. What are you going to do the rest of the day? Anything to prepare for the weekend.

BAILEY TARDY: I think we were talking about going to Monkey Island. Go play with the monkeys I guess.

Yeah, I mean, just chill. I'm really tired. I think jet lag is still an issue with me. Just taking a break, resting, and preparing for the weekend.

Q. I'm sure you traveled a lot, but what are your tips for jet lag? This is a normal thing you all have to do with travel.

BAILEY TARDY: I don't know. Just staying up as late as possible has definitely been my key for this week. I feel like once 4:00 hits I'm ready to go to bed.

Yeah, I think eating meals, like your breakfast during breakfast time and dinner during dinner time helps you adjust quicker.

It's still hard. It's 13 hours different from where I'm from. Yeah, it's been an exhausting week so far, but two more days we get to go home.
