U.S. GIRLS' JUNIOR CHAMPIONSHIPJuly 19, 2018Alexa PanoPebble Beach, California Q. It was a long day, obviously, but you were fortunate that you got done yesterday, so you really only had to play two regular matches today. Was that easier that you had a regular routine today? ALEXA PANO: Definitely. I'm just so happy that we got it in. I know a bunch of my friends, I felt awful for them. They're going to be playing three rounds. But it was really nice to be able to just come out, relax, do a regular routine. Q. I know on 16 she had a pretty good putt for birdie, then you obviously came back on 17. Talk a little bit about that swing there. ALEXA PANO: I mean, she'd been playing insanely well the whole day, and I felt like it was just one of us on top of each other. Definitely I think putting was a struggle for me the whole day as my ball-striking I felt really confident with, but I just couldn't get those putts in the hole. Q. On 17, what did you hit in there? ALEXA PANO: I hit a choked-down pitching wedge. Q. To six feet? ALEXA PANO: Yeah, just about. That was a pretty nice putt in there, too. Q. Your thoughts about -- this is your first you've ever gone to a USGA championship, right, quarterfinals? ALEXA PANO: Yes. Q. Thoughts about now moving forward, you'll have a regular day, obviously, tomorrow, two rounds, if you can manage to win your morning match? ALEXA PANO: Yeah, I mean, I'm super excited. I don't think I'm nervous at all because I think this is going to be one of the toughest matches that I could have. She was so consistent and so pure out there, and I think if I just keep playing the way that I did today and make some more putts, I'll be pretty good. Q. The quarterfinals gets you exempt for next year, as you know. Yeah, so excited for that. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports   |
