Quick Quotes

Q. Annika, congrats on your 1-under round today.

ANNIKA RATHBONE: Thank you.

Q. Can you just tell us about your round today?

ANNIKA RATHBONE: My round was pretty solid today. I started off with a birdie, which is always nice. I actually got it to 4-under, but the last two holes didn't finish the best. It was still solid.

Q. In terms of the last two holes, can take us through what happened with that?

ANNIKA RATHBONE: I blocked my tee shot right on 8. If you do that that's not good. Got penalised for that, and I was in like a divot on my second shot on 9 and like flubbed it out of it.

So took a bogey, but still happy.

Q. In terms of what was the difference between yesterday and today for you?

ANNIKA RATHBONE: Just putting. I just trusted myself a little bit more and played more aggressive today. So that was the play.

Q. In terms of need to make the cut, how are you going to approach the final two days of the tournament?

ANNIKA RATHBONE: Keep on doing what I've been doing. Don't try and force the putt. They'll fall.

Q. In terms of you're really excited being able to be part of this tournament, how has this whole experience been for you?

ANNIKA RATHBONE: This experience has been awesome it's my first time, so debutante. Yeah, it's been awesome. The goal was to make the cut, so hopefully we've done that and just, yeah, have a couple low ones on the weekend and it will be sweet.
