Quick Quotes

Q. Here now with Minami Katsu at the Founders Cup presented by U.S. Virgin Islands. Just take us through the round today. What worked for you?

MINAMI KATSU: (Through translation.) I felt like overall I wasn't hitting the ball really well but I was able to keep the flow going. A little disappointed I wasn't able to make any birdies on the back nine.

Q. Seeing a lot of low scores as the week what gone on. What is it about this course is that is so scorable?

MINAMI KATSU: I'm a bit surprised how low everyone is shooting. I felt that the course was really difficult today. Maybe because there is few holes that you can hit with shorter irons, wedge game, so I think that's maybe one of the reasons it's going low.

Q. Last one. Based on how the scoreboard is shaking up you might be playing with Miyu Yamashita tomorrow. How exciting is it to get to play with her, another rising young Japanese player?

MINAMI KATSU: (Through translation.) Yeah, it's definitely something happy. I'm really happy that a lot of young players are coming out here and definitely gives me motivation.

So hopefully I can play great tomorrow.
