Q. Here with Georgia Hall who gave herself a nice belated birthday present, 6-under 66 today. Bogey-free out there. What did you find today that worked is well?
GEORGIA HALL: Yeah, I mean, yesterday I wasn't quite on it. I played okay. I know I left quite a few out there.
I really took advantage of the par-5s today. I was quite aggressive on them and I had fairly easy chips to get up and down for birdie.
So really happy with the bogey-free round.
Q. Any of those chip or pitch shots stand out in particular?
GEORGIA HALL: No. I mean, all were pretty solid to be honest. I've been chipping really well recently and I'm really proud of my like sand saves throughout today, because like I said a couple weeks ago, I've been struggling a lot with bunkers. It's been really good.
Q. Speaking of the last couple weeks, two runner-up results coming into this week. You've been playing some dang good golf and continuing it here. What's been working so well for you?
GEORGIA HALL: To be honest it's just hard work over the past like year and a half. To be honest it's all coming together, and I feel very mentally confident and calm when I'm out there. Very patient as well.
Obviously got a great kind of person on the bag and friend in Colin and we got on really, really well. We go out and have fun.
Q. Do you think that's what Colin maybe specifically, or some things off the golf course that's been key for that relaxation? You look a lot more relaxed.
GEORGIA HALL: Not Colin because of that, but what I mean is when I'm out there, me and Colin get on really well so it's very easy.
But regarding my golf, like I said, just like a year of hard work, very consistent. I put a lot of effort into my club selection and testing in the off-season. I think that's really helping me now.
Obviously very happy like all round in my life, so that obviously helps.
Q. Was the wind a factor today or was it the same and you adjusted?
GEORGIA HALL: Yeah, I mean, the first four, five holes was maybe a club and a half wind, and then after that it got up to like when I played yesterday afternoon. It's pretty windy out there still, so pretty tough conditions.
Q. Did you rely on any links knowledge the past couple days?
GEORGIA HALL: I would like to say I'm a fairly good shot maker, as in I can control my ball flight quite well, and I'm used to hitting those kind of low shots and controlling the spin.
So I think, yeah, definitely helps me out there.
Q. What did you do to celebrate the birthday yesterday?
GEORGIA HALL: Cheesecake Factory afterwards. I didn't have cheesecake. I was very good. Yeah, it's a quick turnaround for me, so last night quick dinner with Ryann, Su, and Steph, all my close friends here and obviously Ryann and just really nice, chilled evening.
Q. Tonight a little more time. Some cheesecake tonight maybe?
GEORGIA HALL: I mean, I need to get a physio because my leg is actually a little bit in pain. But I'm fine, it's just really tight. I'm actually -- we were going to go on a hike this afternoon and I'm not going to do that because of my foot. Just going to relax and maybe go to the sea.
