Quick Quotes

Q. All right, Linnea, second straight round in the 60s for you. How are you feeling after day two?

LINNEA JOHANSSON: I'm feeling great. It's been an awesome first two days. I'm just enjoying it a much as I can.

Q. What are you liking most about Crown Colony?

LINNEA JOHANSSON: It's a very great golf course. Challenges obviously at certain spots, but good golf course. Very good conditions. The greens are rolling very great, and it's just such a great community with all the membership and the houses around and my host housing and everything. It's just a great experience.

Q. What does it mean to you to be doing so well after all the work you put in in the off-season?

LINNEA JOHANSSON: I mean, obviously it's very great to come off to such a good start after two rounds, but obviously it's golf and everything can happen. You never know. You never know when bad days and holes are going to come to you.

Obviously I'm very thankful and appreciate that it's going great right now, so I will take that with me.

Q. I know you have some Swedish friends out here with you and also Frida who Monday qualified. What's it like being around friends again on the tour here and just being able to see your friends be successful just as much?

LINNEA JOHANSSON: I think that that means a lot, to have each other's back. I grew up playing in Sweden with friends and we always were a little team. To have Frida and all the other Swedish girls out here and other friends, it's very valuable. It gets lonely, and I'm super, super thankful that Frida Monday qualified and I got to take her under my wings.

She ended up staying with me and everything, so I love it. To have that support from each other and her coming out and watching me, you know, when you're such a long ways from home, it means a lot.

Q. You finish off strong. How much confidence do you have in your game heading into tomorrow?

LINNEA JOHANSSON: I mean, obviously I'm just going to -- obviously I'm hitting the ball pretty good, putting very well, so I'm just going to keep that momentum going, one shot at a time and one hole at a time and see where it takes me.
