CN CANADIAN WOMEN'S OPEN CHAMPIONSHIPAugust 24, 2012Na Yeon ChoiCOQUITLAM, BRITISH COLUMBIA THE MODERATOR: Decent round, three shots back right now. Tell us about your day. NA YEON CHOI: I mean, my shot, my putter wasn't great like yesterday. I guess I dropped too much yesterday. But I think I'm still in a good position, and I have good patience. So hopefully a couple more drop tomorrow and Sunday. Q. Was it frustrating today to not be able to make as many birdies? NA YEON CHOI: No, I mean this course I thought was going to be difficult for everybody, and I was surprised Chella Choi shot 8‑under par today. But I think today the pin position was more difficult than yesterday. And my shot, obviously, my shot wasn't great, so I couldn't get many chances for birdie. So I finished at even par today, but I'm pretty satisfied with what I did today. Q. You saw a 64, 8‑under posted today. Do you think you have a 64 in you this weekend? NA YEON CHOI: I'm not going to try. I'm just going to play one shot at a time, especially this golf course. I think I have to keep the fairway first, and then keep the green and some holes I have to stay below the hole. I think that is the key to playing well on this course. Q. Do you know Chella? NA YEON CHOI: Yeah, I know Chella. She's a little younger than me, and I think I met her when she was 13 or 14. We had the same winter training in Thailand. Q. She birdied 8 out of 10 holes. That was pretty amazing. NA YEON CHOI: Yeah, I saw. She had birdie on 7 or 8, and then she had, yeah. I mean, I know her father too. He really worked hard, and I think they deserve to score today. Q. Is that a very common name, Choi? NA YEON CHOI: Yeah, in Korea. Yeah. Q. So you're chasing Chella and also Lydia coincidentally who is 15 years old? NA YEON CHOI: Yeah, she's an amateur. Q. Yeah, she's an amateur. Do you remember being 15 and where you were in your golf career? NA YEON CHOI: I think I was playing on the Korean National Team. But when I heard like she's 15 years old, it really surprised me. I know she won the U.S. Women's Amateur, so I think she had a good ability to play well. We have a good match here on Saturday and Sunday, so I think tomorrow just a couple more drop for putting, and I think I'll be okay. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports |
