Quick Quotes


Q. Take us through this second day here at the BMW Ladies Championship for you.

HEE JEONG LIM: So I would like to pat myself on the back because the first round and the second round went bogey-free. And also in terms of my shots and my putting, I think they went well. But we have a long way to go, so I have much expectations for the next two rounds.

Q. You started with two birdies on the first two holes there. Did that really help jump start that round for you?

HEE JEONG LIM: So I'm a player that needs to start off well. So I really focus on my first and second holes. And I think once you play well in your first two holes, then you're at an ease for the following holes. So I think that worked well today.

And in terms of the course itself, I think we can get an opportunity to snatch many birdies here. So I tried to aim for that. So I tried to work on my shot.

Q. How confident do you feel in your game after two bogey-free rounds like this back to back?

HEE JEONG LIM: That didn't really boost much confidence, not just yet, because, of course, I'm a player well known for many birdies but at the same time for many bogeys as well.

So my goal is to minimize the number of bogeys rather than maximize the number of birdies.

And I feel good today, so I want to keep the momentum going.

Q. What do you like most about this course, and were you here in 2019 when the LPGA Tour was, and are there any differences between both years?

HEE JEONG LIM: Yes, I also played in the 2019 tournament, and I ended up tied 6th rank. So that was back then in 2019.

And what I like most about the course is that when it's very windy, then they will arrange the setting a little bit. For instance, in terms of fringe hits, they will work on that as well.

So if you use a lot of short irons with your shots, then you will get more opportunities for birdies. So that's what I like most about the setting.

Q. What will you work on heading into the weekend here with two days of play left?

HEE JEONG LIM: So when I started this tournament, my goal was to keep calm and just keep doing what I've been doing for a very long time.

So I know that I'm leading right now, but I do not want to focus on that fact, but stay calm and just not being obsessed with ranks, but just do my best in every single thing.
