Quick Quotes

Q. I'm here with Ruoning Yin after her first round at the Kroger Queen City Championship. Great playing today; bogey-free out there. Can you just walk us through those birdies you had?

RUONING YIN: Yeah. I got four birdies today and two of them is made on par-5; the other two was I hit quite good approach shot and just nearly a tap-in birdie.

Q. Those are always nice to have.

RUONING YIN: Yes.

Q. Is there anything about this course that you feel like suits your eye?

RUONING YIN: Yeah. I mean, this course is quite different than last year, because last year was pretty wet and this year the green and the fairway is getting firmer and obviously I got different target lines.

But like I said, I got really good ball striking for last couple weeks, and this week, too, so I think my ball striking was good and my putting is getting better every day.

So, yeah, it's good.

Q. Three Top 3 finishes in your last four starts. Is it that ball striking you feel that's really helping you succeed out here?

RUONING YIN: Yes.

Q. What about your game right now?

RUONING YIN: I feel like my ball striking was definitely the biggest strength of my game, and I just feels really good about my swing right now.
