Sumin Hong

Quick Quotes

Q. Sumin, the leader of the tournament today. Great round. Can you talk us through it?

SUMIN HONG: I was a little worried about the strong wind before I tee'd off, so I try not to worry about the scores and compete among the players.

Today is the last day I can play and enjoy without competing with my peers, playing with the same group, so that did actually work on me, so that's the point today for my scores.

Q. A mix of birdies and bogeys; lots of colours on your scorecard. Can you hope to remove the bogeys tomorrow?

SUMIN HONG: Although like you mentioned my scorecard is very colourful, I was expecting to have some bogeys for my today.

With my bogeys today what I did, it actually wasn't a mistake; it was okay to recover. It could have been worse.

So I'm right now really happy and satisfied even with the colourful scorecard.

Q. You mentioned playing against your peers in the weekend. Will you have dinner tonight, friendly dinner, and tomorrow all business on the golf course?

SUMIN HONG: This is my second international tournament, and I remember when I was leading after the first or second round and that remind me it didn't really go well.

So right now, after the second round I'm leading at the moment, but I try not to think about the final goal and result. I just wanted to enjoy with my peers and teammates and friends from other countries.

I don't know who I will be playing with tomorrow, but it's always friends.
