Quick Quotes

Q. Sabrina, so 5-under round. Talk about the round today. How were things going out there and how was your game feeling heading into this week?

SABRINA IQBAL: Coming in felt pretty good playing tournaments with Colorado, getting me in tournament mode I would say.

Today was pretty steady. Gave myself a lot of opportunities and putting felt -- a lot of putts went in. Just staying calm and one shot at a time out there today.

Q. Talk about the difference between qualifying tournaments like this compared to a regular stroke-play tournament.

SABRINA IQBAL: I think it's easy to put a lot of pressure on yourself, especially since obviously the results have a lot weight carrying into next year.

But I try to come at it with the same approach or else I don't play very well I would say.

Q. Is this your first time at Stage II?

SABRINA IQBAL: No. I played last year.

Q. How does last year prepare you for this year as far as Stage II? Anything you did last year that you didn't like that you kind of got away, or something you didn't like that helped you out this year?

SABRINA IQBAL: I would say obviously playing the courses again always helps, but I think last year like I just felt like the holes and a lot of shots got away from me. This year I tried to focus on one shot at a time and not getting too far ahead of myself.

Q. Was this your last year at Colorado or you still have some status?

SABRINA IQBAL: No, this is my COVID year at Colorado, so, yeah.
