U.S. WOMEN'S OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP


July 8, 2016


Amy Yang


San Martin, California

Q. Familiar position, near the top of the lead in the U.S. Women's Open, how does it feel and what is your mindset going into the weekend?
AMY YANG: Just like another day. Just like yesterday and today. Not going to think much, just get out there, do my best every hole.

Q. You have a reputation for making birdies in bunches. You can make eight or nine in a row. In a U.S. Open that just doesn't happen. How do you change your thinking for a U.S. Open?
AMY YANG: Sorry?

Q. How do you change your thinking for the U.S. Open?
AMY YANG: Because the course is to challenging out there, I can't just be -- I can't be aggressive every hole. So I just let go of the pressure, and then the feeling you want to go aggressive, just let it go and do whatever you can out there.

I think I did No. 18 and 1, 2, 3 today, just happened so quick. I don't know how it happens.

Q. Did you have any long putts on those four birdies in a row?
AMY YANG: Yes, I had about a 35, 36-footer on No. 2, yeah, from left side. The pin was tucked my side.

Q. Do you pay attention to the leaderboard at all during the round?
AMY YANG: No, no, I don't.

Q. Do you look at it on Sunday?
AMY YANG: Sunday? Yeah, maybe Sunday. But I don't really pay attention to it, yeah.

Q. You are one of the few players who played well in the afternoon yesterday. What was it like compared to yesterday?
AMY YANG: It was less wind and especially front nine and a lot softer. But wind picked up on No. maybe 11 or 12. So it was a little tough on back nine.

Q. Yesterday prepared you for that probably?
AMY YANG: Yesterday I hit it, I drove it so good, so I gave myself many opportunities out there. But today I had some trouble hitting tee shots, hitting into rough and trying to save up and down. But I finished good. I did good, yeah.
