Quick Quotes


Q. Tell me how things worked today, how everything kind of came together.

GABY LOPEZ: Yeah, I mean, today was pretty much the perfect golf round under the tough conditions that we had. Pin locations were very tough and you couldn't really get close to it.

Q. Talking about the level of satisfaction with everything is clicking, all the work you've done is coming together to one place.
