Quick Quotes

Q. Okay, here with Haeran Ryu after her third round here at the Black Desert Resort. Take us through the day again. Obviously this eagle on No. 11, too.

HAERAN RYU: Yeah, today was such a long day because too many winds today and then the course is more firmer than last two rounds, so I just want to keep staying on the fairway but that's too hard for me. Today I make some eagle again and lots of good thing. I just forget my last; I miss putt.

Q. How different did this course play today with all the weather and stuff we had versus the last couple days?

HAERAN RYU: Yeah, such a harder than last two days because it's too windy and the green was I think a little bit tough to read right because too windy.

So I got a lot great putt today, but I just missed putted. Yeah, I want to forget that.

Q. For the players who aren't here, when you see them later on Tour, what are you going to tell them about this course and this event?

HAERAN RYU: Yeah, I think here is best view on the year I think, because the mountain is a pretty good and lots of good things in here.

It's pretty here. I just say it's pretty here.

I think I like the first tournament because everybody is first playing here, so I just want have fun for the find a good thing on the course.

Q. We're going to have some weather again tomorrow potentially. What will you take from this round specifically with the weather into tomorrow?

HAERAN RYU: Yeah, I think I got three bogeys today. That's have to make some problem for my tee shot going to the rough, so that is so tough.
