Quick Quotes

Q. Liyana, a bit more of a tough day out on course today. 2-over, but still nicely positioned at 4-under. Can you assess the day for us?

LIYANA DURISIC: Today was a little bit -- I wouldn't say harder, but the pin positions were tucked to the left, so you need to be super close or be bold to actually get it close to make it for birdie. I was just taking my goal of fairway, green, two putts quite literally.

Then I feel like tomorrow's another day, and I feel like I can go out there and sink more putts tomorrow.

Q. As you see, no birdies on the scorecard today, but, oh, there were so many close ones.

LIYANA DURISIC: A lot of close ones.

Q. How does it feel and how do you manage when you're seeing those birdie putts come so close and just not quite dropping?

LIYANA DURISIC: It's a little bit frustrating, but then I keep thinking, okay, they're close, so maybe the next one will drop. It's just like building momentum and hopefully the next one will drop.

Even if it doesn't, that's fine. Tomorrow is a brand new day.

Q. Exactly, tomorrow is a brand new day, and you're still right there in the mix with two rounds to go. How are you feeling about moving forward in the championship?

LIYANA DURISIC: I'm feeling pretty good. I'm not going to change my game plan. It's just fairway to green and two-putt, and hopefully tomorrow I'm going to be sinking more putts.

Q. We always say this is quite a learning experience for a lot of the young players. You played so well yesterday. You have lots of TV cameras following you today. Is that a first for you, and how did you manage with that?

LIYANA DURISIC: Well, it is a first for me where someone would just stand right behind me and video me. I feel like maybe halfway through they're sort of a part of the game and it doesn't really bother me anymore.

So it's just the first few holes I'm like, oh, my God, this is overwhelming, but I got over it quickly.

Q. I'm sure there's going to be plenty of TV cameras following you this weekend again. Well played. We look forward to seeing you again tomorrow.

LIYANA DURISIC: Thank you.
