Q. Mina, tell us about with your round today. Seemed fairly consistent. Two bogeys and one birdie.
MINA HARIGAE: Yeah, you know, it was a tough day out there right from the getgo. A little windier, colder definitely the back nine.
I feel like the pins were a little harder, too. So I was trying to play smart all day and I felt more comfortable out there today than I did yesterday.
Q. Yeah, how challenging were those conditions today?
MINA HARIGAE: I mean, they were tough. I didn't -- I wasn't sure. Like I wasn't looking at the leaderboard or anything but I was like, man, I feel like today is really, really hard.
Because it's really easy to try to go for certain pins, but I think that's where my course knowledge comes in, where I just today wasn't the day to go for anything.
Q. What's it been like playing in Monterey the past few days, in your home area? What's the support been like?
MINA HARIGAE: Oh, it's been such a dream. So cool. So many people were on the 10th tee today. They made their way all the way out there. Just to hear everyone say, go, Mina, it's been really, really cool.
Q. I know you're obviously here to win it. What's it like knowing you made the cut and you're playing on the weekend?
MINA HARIGAE: Definitely a relief. Obviously I'm trying to compete, trying to win. Yesterday was a little tough, rough start for me. Making the cut, hopefully more people could come watch me.
Q. Do you still feel like you're in a position to make a run and get to the top?
MINA HARIGAE: Definitely. It all kind of just depends on the weather. But, you know, obviously throughout the year you see home can go low, but also you have to manage yourself out here, too.
I feel like I do have a good chance.
