Quick Quotes


Q. Here with Perrine Delacour. It's a nice way it kickoff the year. 68 today. Just walk me through your round.

PERRINE DELACOUR: Yeah, it was nice, especially after a couple months off. I had some mental issue, mental health, so took some time off and it was nice to come back to see where was my game and actually in a great spot so I'm pretty happy about it.

Q. You put the clubs away totally in those two months or practice a little bit?

PERRINE DELACOUR: Well it was more than two months. It was four months in France and then I came back to U.S.

I kind of play a little bit, but not much. I kind of needed to figure out myself before I know what I was doing, so it was nice.

Q. What was working with the game out there today? Seemed pretty solid.

PERRINE DELACOUR: I had a rough start, but then, I mean, I just trust my process. My coach is here with me and that kind of help me a lot. He speaks French and I rely on him. If I'm worried I can talk to him. My team are in France but they always support me so that was nice.

Even last night I was still on the phone with them, so that was nice to have the support from everybody back home and not feeling by yourself in the States.

Even though I was by myself on the course.

Q. How is the game feeling, swing feeling? The game looks pretty solid so far.

PERRINE DELACOUR: Yeah, no, the swing feels good. Game feels good. I'm just taking this as a restart. I took it more as lucky because I was kind of able to spend time to figure out what I was doing in my life and everything to come back.

It was just nice.

Q. Just wrap it up, next three days, I know tournaments aren't won on Thursday, but what's the mindset heading into the next through rounds?

PERRINE DELACOUR: Just going to try my best. I'm not looking at the results. That's not the goal yet. The goal is to get a good process overall and to get -- just focus on the good process and see where it's going.

If it's going good, fine. If not, just trust the process.
