SUNRISE LPGA TAIWAN CHAMPIONSHIP


October 24, 2013


Irene Cho

Caroline Hedwall


YANG MEI, TAIWAN

Q.  So only eight players are under par right now, I don't know if you all know that, you both are two of them.  What were conditions like out there today?
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  Rainy.
IRENE CHO:  Rainy.
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  Yeah.
IRENE CHO:  It was like we didn't even get a chance to talk to each other.  We were like so busy doing stuff.  We just chatted, like, all right, one hole down.
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  That's basically what we did.  And now the wind picked up a little.  I think it was an advantage to start early today.  It feels nice to be done now.
IRENE CHO:  Yeah, I don't know ‑‑ it feels nice to be done.  I think it slowed down a lot on the back nine.  At least on the front, we were like ‑‑ had to set the pace.  So it was a lot quicker and we could just do our thing.
But on the back it slowed down a lot.  So more stay in your routine I guess atmosphere.

Q.  So what was working well for both of you out there under the tough conditions?
IRENE CHO:  Judging, just your yardages I guess and your iron shots and just hitting drivers, like in the center and being in the fairway and then just judging the rain and the non‑rolling.
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  Well, I think we hit it close a couple of times.
IRENE CHO:  Yeah, we did.
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  And made a good amount of birdies for being in these conditions.
IRENE CHO:  It was nice to have like fresh greens I think on the front.
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  Yeah, yeah.
IRENE CHO:  I think the greens definitely slowed down on the back just because of all the traffic they were getting.

Q.  So you all didn't talk at all today?
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  A little bit but not much.  Everyone was just focused.
IRENE CHO:  Good shot, good shot.  Like that was pretty much most of our day.  I think I asked her like one question when we were on the back nine, but just kind of staying in like your little0.
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  Just with the umbrella ‑‑
IRENE CHO:  Under the umbrella ‑‑ it's like hard.  You can't like walk next to each other.  This is a good week to test if you really like your caddie because you're spending a lot of time with him.

Q.  Does it make it even more difficult the fact that you've been out in Asia now for four, possibly three weeks in a row?
IRENE CHO:  You're just used to it now.  You know, you hit and go, hit and go.
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  Basically.

Q.  Caroline, for you, International Crown coming up next year, your leading the standings I think in your country.
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  Oh, we are?  Yeah, yeah.

Q.  How excited are you?
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  Well, I just love playing team events.  I'm very excited about it, so it would be fun.

Q.  You have a good record at Solheim Cup.  Is that just kind of your‑‑
CAROLINE HEDWALL:  Anna and I, we played really well at the Solheim, too.  So it would be a lot of fun playing with her.  Because it's foursomes and stuff, too, right?  Yeah, I think I'm just looking forward to it.  I think it's fun to have another team event on the schedule.
