Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
Q. So two good rounds. Saw you had two birdies and just one bogey today?
MARINA ALEX: Yeah.
Q. You've got to feel good coming off the golf course where you put yourself?
MARINA ALEX: Yeah, absolutely. Definitely was a little tougher ball striking today. Just didn't feel like I got into a good flow, but I managed the round really well and made an awesome putt on 15 to make birdie. I had some good looks here and there. I was just kind of piecing it all together, and I think I did the best I could today with the score I have, so I'm happy with that.
Q. I was going to ask you about the birdie on 15, because that's the Hearts For Birdies hole. Had to be a good feeling for you this week?
MARINA ALEX: Yeah, if I could have one birdie there, that's great. That was probably the best putt I hit all day, so I'm happy it happened to be on that hole for the charity.
Q. How far a putt was it?
MARINA ALEX: Oh, it had to be 30 feet. Yeah, it was a great putt.
Q. So you're well -- I think you're one stroke off the lead right now to the top of the leaderboard. How do you go in from today until tomorrow?
MARINA ALEX: Yeah, keep doing the same things I'm doing. Try to work on my ball striking a little bit. Just get a few better drives on the fairway and just a couple more closer iron shots and give myself better percentage putts. I'm putting well, but I just want to give myself as many great chances as I can going through this weekend.
Q. One last question. I heard it called a Brooke-A-Palooza this week. What is the atmosphere like?
MARINA ALEX: The crowds are really, really great. For a Thursday and a Friday, there are a lot of people here and it's awesome. I believe this is Brooke's home course, so I'm sure this weekend is going to be exceptionally filled with people, lot of fun, lot of excitement and a lot of cheering. So we're looking forward to it.
