Quick Quotes

THE MODERATOR: I'm here with Wei-Ling and Ssu-Chia after their second round of the Dow Championship. Talk about how you played today, 7-under round, really moved you up to the top of the leaderboard, tied for the lead right now. Talk about how it felt out there today.

SSU-CHIA CHENG: I mean, everything felt pretty good out there. The first five holes, five, six holes, we kind of didn't really play our best out there. Still, I kind of just get in the rhythm right. We just keep doing our things out there even though we made a bunch of pars in the first few holes, but we just keep it going.

WEI-LING HSU: I think I had a good partner. I didn't do very good today, especially my iron shots. But I trying to save par as much as possible, that way maybe I can relieve some pressure from her. I think that's just my goal today.

Q. Talk about the eagle, too, you had out there today. Did that help things, give you guys energy?

SSU-CHIA CHENG: Yeah, definitely pumped us up a lot. I just hit a good tee shot. I liked the approach number, and I tried to be out there and have a good tempo and put a good swing on it, and it went in. We were just really happy.

WEI-LING HSU: She just doesn't want to give me a chance to hit a second shot.

SSU-CHIA CHENG: Yeah, you can just pick your ball up.

Q. Any type of celebration for it?

SSU-CHIA CHENG: We had a big high five.

WEI-LING HSU: She's going to pay me dinner. So I think everything good.

Q. What are you looking forward to most about the weekend, being near the top of the leaderboard?

WEI-LING HSU: I think we're just back to alternate shot tomorrow. Even though we do pretty good yesterday, I still feel like alternate shot are quite challenging, but I think we just keep our head down and try to have fun and more relax on the golf course.

SSU-CHIA CHENG: I think just the same. Alternate shot can be a little tricky, so tomorrow I think -- the weekend we're still just trying to have fun and have a good time out there and just play our golf. Pretty much the same thing as what we did the past two rounds.
