Quick Quotes

Q. Here with Hae Ran Ryu after her third round here at the Cognizant Founders Cup. Bit of an up and down day. What was going good and bad in the round today?

HAE RAN RYU: Today I think that there is not that good points of today's round, but I think a lot of bad points today.

But when I going into the tours my iron shot was a little bit not the good accuracy so that was the baddest point today.

Q. But you still made a lot birdies and are in contention for tomorrow. Do you like to be in the chase going into the final round?

HAE RAN RYU: It's really difficult question to me, but if I have a lot of gap with runner-up, then it's better to someone chasing me.

But from now, I'm enjoy the chase some players these days but it's really hard to me.

Q. Yeah. This course is hard also. So can you be really aggressive in the chase or do you have to play smarter, more safe?

HAE RAN RYU: I think that this course is not that good course to play aggressively, so tomorrow I'm going to play more smarter than today and before.

Q. What would it mean to you to get your first win here on tour at a place that's all about the history of the LPGA?

HAE RAN RYU: If I win tomorrow, that's going to be really meaningful to me. When we see on the course after the 18th, there are a lot of pioneers and Founders in there and that's really overwhelm to me.

These days I play like contender on twice before. Tomorrow if I can win, that's going to be meaningful to me also. Thank you.
