Quick Quotes


Q. Here with Ryann O'Toole after her second round. What was sort of different about the course today and your play? I know you had a really fantastic day yesterday.

RYANN O'TOOLE: Just today I feel like it was a little windier today. Just got off to a rough start. I wasn't striking it bad, just kind of turned the wedge over on 11 and got stuck really close to that tree; had to struggle to try to salvage that.

Then hit a good tee shot on 12 but just cut it too much. With that breeze it just sent it into that hazard.

After that I felt like I played pretty decent. Really I think it was just three shots today that I could say cost me bogeys. That was basically it.

So I think going into tomorrow, I mean, yeah, I played a very good round yesterday, and sometimes that's golf. Funny, today I felt like I was warming up striking it better versus yesterday, and go figure.

Q. For those who don't know, how different is it going from playing in the morning to the afternoon? What are those big changes mentally and physically?

RYANN O'TOOLE: It is different, especially just like course condition. Like morning the greens I felt like were smoother, faster; afternoon they get slowed down so you got to adjust to speeds.

For the most part it's also just day-to-day golf. Your body feels different. You just try to keep the momentum going. Shooting 3-under today I guess I gained some position -- or I lost some position.

It's hard because I always said 4-under is pretty much even out here, so goes to show. So I just think at least put myself in the position going into tomorrow and see where it goes.

Q. You're not completely out of it. You're still up there near the top of the leaderboard. What is the plan tomorrow? Is it going back and being really aggressive? How do you emulate your first round?

RYANN O'TOOLE: I think it's just staying patient. I think really keeping to one shot at a time. There is a ton of birdies out there. Just minimizing mistakes as best as possible, hitting good shots, and giving yourself birdie opportunities. There are a lot out of here.

I know I could've gotten down on myself after the first three holes, but I didn't. Turned it around at the end of that backside.

I just think tomorrow is a new day and anything can happen. Obviously players are playing well, and we'll see.
