Quick Quotes

Q. Birdie, bogey, bogey, birdie, birdie, bogey, another bogey. Couldn't get in a rhythm today?

GABY LOPEZ: Yeah, it was a little frustrating on the greens. I was hitting it too much past the hole. I was just leaving myself four, five footers for par. Eventually missed a couple.

But, yeah, overall honestly feeling so much better tee-to-green. Hitting amazing iron shots, which haven't been able to do the last couple weeks. So, yeah, very, very happy with that.

Q. Last year you were just inside the cut line for the Women's Open. This year you are pretty comfortably in. How does that change your mentality going into the weekend?

GABY LOPEZ: Yeah, being able to have a good cushion and being able to kind of have the more aggressive mentality tomorrow to my targets, not necessarily to the pins, makes it a little more free.

Q. How comfortable do you feel -- with your game do you feel like going into the weekend you're going to have to be attacking some pins?

GABY LOPEZ: Yeah, honestly I have to sharpen up a little bit those up and downs like on 18 and on 1 that I can have myself a better chance for birdie.

But honestly overall I feel like we were doing a lot of good things and just trying to focus on that.

Q. There will be a lot of wind or expected for there to be a lot of wind this weekend. How do you feel about your game with some gusts?

GABY LOPEZ: I feel that the wind keeps me more presented. Yesterday I proved that too myself, that the tougher it is kind of the more present I need to be.

So, yeah, very happy with being able to play the weekend and hopefully I (indiscernible) with my targets tomorrow.

Q. Have a lot more time today after your round. How do you decompress and get ready for tomorrow?

GABY LOPEZ: Yeah, this golf course is so tiring to walk. Being able to just get a good recovery session, maybe a little work out in, and just flush the legs. Rest a lot for tomorrow. That will be very nice.
