(Through translation.)

Q. Great playing out there today. What was the key to your strong round?
SU-YEON JANG: My shot in general was good, and I think playing yesterday was helping me a lot considering the wind.

Q. I heard that you won on the KLPGA last week. How much confidence did getting a win out there give you coming into this event?
SU-YEON JANG: Was a little relaxing and felt confident after winning the tournament last week.

So that helped me a lot.

Q. How did you get started in golf and who are some of the players you looked up to?
SU-YEON JANG: I started playing golf because my dad suggest to play.

My role model is Inbee Park because she kept her calm all the time.

SU-YEON JANG: Yeah, just say hi. Not much.

Q. How important is it for you to represent Lotte, getting a sponsor's exemption getting into this tournament?
SU-YEON JANG: I am thankful that Lotte is sponsoring me, and I'm glad to compete against the top LPGA players. I'm very happy.

Q. First LPGA event?
SU-YEON JANG: I participate in the Hana event, LPGA Hana event, but it's my first event in the States.

Q. First time in Hawaii?
SU-YEON JANG: First time in Hawaii. I came here last month to practice.

Q. How much did that help, just being here early?
SU-YEON JANG: Yeah, practicing a month ago help me a lot because I knew is it was windy in Hawaii.

So I'm definitely ready for this week.

Q. Was it as windy as the last two days when you came before?
SU-YEON JANG: Yeah, it was as windy as today.

Q. Did you learn a lot from yesterday's round?
