CANADIAN PACIFIC WOMEN'S OPENAugust 24, 2017Hannah HellyerCalgary, Alberta, Canada Q. Hannah, first round in the LPGA tournament here. How did you feel stepping on to the first tee this morning? HANNAH HELLYER: It was pretty exciting. I don't think I really was thinking straight. My heart was pounding out of my chest. But I just had to kind of focus and try and get the ball in the fairway. It was good. Q. How big of a step up is it for someone like you who's basically a club professional to come up here and try and play with these gals? HANNAH HELLYER: It's amazing. I can't believe that I'm here. I'm living my dream, so just want to keep pursuing. Q. I understand it wasn't that long ago you were thinking about maybe not even continuing with a career in golf, and yet here you are. That's a big change. HANNAH HELLYER: For sure. I'm glad that I stuck it out. I think that golf has a lot of highs and lows, and you've just really got to be -- you have to persist. Q. What was the story of your round today? HANNAH HELLYER: I couldn't find the fairway, so that was fun. And I hit a lot of diverse shots, learned a lot about placement, so that was really good. But hopefully tomorrow will be a little more down the middle and on the green, maybe one-putt, two-putt, a little boring golf. We'll see how it goes. Q. I know you've been around these players for a long time, but playing in this tournament, does it put things into perspective just how good they are? HANNAH HELLYER: Yeah, it's amazing, and I've learned a lot just even with my playing partners today. Just going to try and take that to the next event. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports   |
