Quick Quotes


Q. I am here with Peiyun Chien. Talk us through your round today. I know you had a few birdies out there. Maybe didn't finish the way you wanted, but just talk us through the highlights today.

PEIYUN CHIEN: We start pretty well, and today pin position is pretty tough. In the front I doing pretty well, but I hit too many short side, so it's so hard to get it -- save the par.

So I drop a lot of shot, but 1-under is a good score for me.

Q. Absolutely, yeah. And then did you see any differences on the course today compared to yesterday?

PEIYUN CHIEN: Today the green is pretty firm, firmer, so it's hard to choose the club. It's swirling now so it's tougher.

Q. A lot of players have mentioned how it's really tight off the tee at this course. How have you gone about that challenge and attacked it?

PEIYUN CHIEN: Oh, yes, I didn't hit too many fairway today so I drop a lot of shot. The rough is pretty tough, so it's a hard course for sure.

Q. Can you talk about how you're playing now? Yesterday you had I think a share of the lead and you bogeyed the last two holes. I noticed you bogeyed 17; didn't see 18. Is it finishing that's hard for you?

PEIYUN CHIEN: It's a little hard. I'm always getting hungry, so actually more at the course.

Q. So you have to bring peanut butter and jelly sandwiches or something.

PEIYUN CHIEN: I always having some bar in the course. But just finish two; maybe I need to finish four. I will try tomorrow.

Q. You're 32 now. Have you ever thought about, I'd like to win one of these?

PEIYUN CHIEN: I think I learn pretty slow and I start come to America pretty late, when I was 26, so it takes time.

Q. But it will come? You'll win some time?

PEIYUN CHIEN: Yeah, I'm trying.
