Press Conference


Q. All right, round of 5-under. That was a really good day on a crazy windy course.

ADITI ASHOK: Yeah.

Q. How do you feel you played today?

ADITI ASHOK: I think it was good. I felt like I've been hitting the ball good, especially the last three days, so I felt like I was going to hit it good in the beginning of the round because there wasn't as much wind, which I did.

And I think when it got windy. Just took me a bit of time to get used to it. I think from 10 to like 17 really I didn't have any good looks at birdie. I was just kind of scrambling, which is fine, because you expect that in the wind.

Yeah, it was nice to finish with a couple birdies there but, but, yeah, definitely looking forward to tomorrow.

Q. Any real stand-out moments in your round today that you thought were good gets for you?

ADITI ASHOK: I think front nine I was holding everything, so, yeah, that was good. I think birdieing 17 was really good for me because it's a long hole, and into the wind it's just really tricky.

So it just gave my more confidence that I know I was hitting it well, even after not making birdies the previous six, seven holes.

Yeah, so that was good. And I think 18 as well. I didn't capitalize on the par-5s as much. I made two pars and a bogey, so I think birdieing 18 obviously puts my mind a bit at rest. I was a bit upset being +1 on the par-5s until 18.

So, yeah, that's good, too.

Q. Good. So you feel like you have a good plan of attack for tomorrow, you know what to expect?

ADITI ASHOK: Yeah. Yeah, I guess so. I did play like I think second half of the round in the wind, which I think I have to get used to. It was good it was windy, that I could know what to expect for tomorrow.
