EMILY KRISTINE PEDERSEN: (In progress.) ...because of the weather. Yeah, was a hot start, and then kind of Jasmine got a little bit hotter and we kind of birdied back and forth.

Q. How much did her momentum help drag you along?

EMILY KRISTINE PEDERSEN: Oh, it was good. Like sometimes you think you can get far ahead, but she was always ahead of me so I was always trying to chase her a little bit, and I think that made me focus and stay present on just trying to birdie the next one.

That was what I was trying to do.

Q. These greens are very tricky greens. A lot of two-, three-tiered greens, a lot of grain in them. Didn't seem to affect you too much. You were rolling it beautifully.

EMILY KRISTINE PEDERSEN: Yeah, I hit mostly the right tier, so that helped a bit. Yeah, felt comfortable on the greens. Changed a little bit in my setup. I feel a lot more comfortable as I'm over the putts.
