HO-YU AN: Actually 6-under. I think the scoring...
Q. Got you. Still, 6-under round, really good round. How did it feel walking off the last green?
HO-YU AN: I just tried to make birdie on last hole because I got the bogey. I think last hole is good chance to make a birdie and get total 6-under.
Q. Then seeing your name up near the top of the leaderboard, how does that give you momentum heading into the next three days?
HO-YU AN: I'm very excited. Maybe it's my second time on leaderboard in the season, so I will enjoy that.
Q. What do you do to rest and prepare for the next three days of golf?
HO-YU AN: Same thing. No expectation and just play my own game and no emotional.
Q. And then obviously a hurricane just came through the state.
HO-YU AN: Yeah.
Q. The course had a lot of water just like the rest of Daytona. How do you think the course played considering those circumstances?
HO-YU AN: I think course shape is not bad. They recover very fast. For this condition I think just be patient because everyone has some bad luck, bad bounce. Just be patient.
