Q. Can you talk us through your round today?
VIRGINIE DING: Yeah, I think I started off a little rocky, I started off with a bogey on the 3rd hole, I think. But got the rhythm going. It was a shame that I 3-putted again on I think 15 for another bogey. But still ended up 2-under. So can't complain.
Q. Can you talk us through those birdies.
VIRGINIE DING: Yeah, I just remember one of them. I don't know, on the 13th hole, par-3, I think I had an 8-iron in. I hit it to about like six inches. Couldn't believe I didn't get a hole-in-one. But it's okay, just tap-in birdie. So that was the highlight of the day for me.
Q. What's working well for you this week?
VIRGINIE DING: I think a little bit of everything. Just because I came back from the States pretty late so I'm dealing with a lot of jet lag. So my expectations are low. But still my ball striking is good, I've given myself a decent amount of birdie chances which was nice. But also just being able to play consistently I think throughout the week is a plus definitely on the course like here. So it's been good.
Q. What do you need to work on going into tomorrow?
VIRGINIE DING: I think just playing a little more aggressively. I think a lot of these girls tomorrow will be shifting gears to try and play more aggressively, just because these holes, especially the par-5s and some of the par-4s you can really be as aggressive as you want to be. Sometimes you could really take advantage of that. So I think that's my game plan for tomorrow.
Q. Team Hong Kong is playing well this week. Obviously you have been here a few times, but what have you been working on the last few months that's been working really well for you?
VIRGINIE DING: I think I played, I just played a lot of tournaments in the States, just consistently week after week. So I haven't really had time to just be on the range or chip around. So I think really course management, just being able to be okay with my emotions and managing the course obviously. So that's really been working for me.
