Quick Quotes

Q. All right, so very impressive round today being bogey-free. What are some factors that went into that in your game today?

HYO JOON JANG: So today -- yesterday I wasn't hitting my long games pretty good so I was more focusing on like having more fairways and green in regulation.

And then I was getting better with green regulation and then my putting was kind of getting into it, so I think that helped me a lot.

Q. Can you walk us through any key pivotal moments in your round such as the three straight birdies on the back nine?

HYO JOON JANG: Back nine I have a lot of birdies but also I did not made a lot of birdie what I expect on like 17 and 18.

But I will take all the par-3s. Yeah, I had good birdies on the par-3s. I think that was the most good thing about my back nine, yeah.

Q. Were there any challenges just for yourself or out on the course today?

HYO JOON JANG: Like as I said, yesterday I was more struggling with my long games, and that was the most focusing point for my today game. So I think that will be the most concern I had today.

Q. Now will that also be a focus point tomorrow, and is there anything else that you're going to have a big focus on?

HYO JOON JANG: For sure I'm going to get a lot of the hydration, and then tomorrow I will do the same thing. Another day, another opportunity, so that's my plan.

Q. And then finally, what's your mindset, how you're going to approach tonight and then tomorrow morning?

HYO JOON JANG: I'm just going more likely put this away for tomorrow and then have a new day tomorrow.
