EDMONTON, ALBERTA
Q. Another good day out there. How was the course playing today?
ANGELA STANFORD: I thought very similar to yesterday, and I played in the morning. I thought the greens would be a little firmer, but I felt they were pretty close. I mean, I'm not sure, but I think so.
Q. What's been the biggest key for your game over the first two days in this tournament?
ANGELA STANFORD: Probably ball striking. I've given myself a lot of chances into the greens, so I think that's the key. If you can keep it in the fairway and give yourself chances into the greens, then you're going to have birdie putts.
Q. Definitely a different look of a golf course than we saw last week. How did you adjust to the tighter course?
ANGELA STANFORD: Sometimes it's kind of nice to have a tighter course, because you have to be a lot more focused and your swing has to be a lot tighter. So sometimes you need to be a little bit tighter and a little more focused.
Q. Doesn't matter how many times you've done it, it's still exciting to be in the mix heading into the weekend?
ANGELA STANFORD: Yeah, yeah. I enjoy playing in Canada, and I'm trying to run one of these down. I've been close in the past. I just really enjoyed playing the golf courses up here.
Q. How close have you been?
ANGELA STANFORD: I don't know. I know I've had some seconds and a lot of top 5s.
Q. Looking at the leaderboard, it looks like a lot of Solheim Cup girls, Americans all over the place. I think there are like eight at the top 15. What's going on with that?
ANGELA STANFORD: Last week completely baffled me. I really thought all the Americans were playing good, and it's obvious this week too, so I don't know. It's just golf. Any given week. I just think that we're pretty strong from top to bottom, and unfortunately we didn't get some putts to fall last week.
Q. Mentally tougher than maybe people knew?
ANGELA STANFORD: The Americans, oh, yeah, oh, yeah. I tell you, learned a lot about that team last week. They're just solid players and they're great people, and they're a lot stronger than people give them credit for, again, from top to bottom. All of them just mentally stayed in it, and they're great players.
