Quick Quotes

Q. Here with Leona Maguire. Not as low as you wanted to go today, but still a solid round, still near the top of the leaderboard. Just assess your day.

LEONA MAGUIRE: Yeah, just a bit of a slow day. Gave myself lots of chances. Didn't quite putt as well as I did yesterday.

Drove the ball really nice. Yeah, gave myself a lot of chances, so just need to putt a little bit better on the weekend.

Q. Was there anything condition-wise that changed with your putting, or just not going in the hole today?

LEONA MAGUIRE: No, just didn't hit as many good putts as I did yesterday. I was above the pin a lot today as well, which made it a little bit trickier. Couldn't be as aggressive as yesterday.

Yeah, the course played a touch longer this morning as well. Just a little damp early on.

No, overall, I mean, good place going into the weekend and try and go lower over the weekend.

Q. Those days when the putts aren't drop, being able to grind out an under-par score, just how key is that for confidence as you look to the weekend?

LEONA MAGUIRE: Yeah, it would've been very easy to get frustrated today and sort of lose patience. Hung in well, tried to give myself couple chances to finish on 17 and 18.

Yeah, I mean, under par is still under par.
