Quick Quotes

Q. All right here with Frida after the second round of the Kroger Queen City Championship presented by P&G. 5-under 67. Just briefly walk through your day a little bit today.

FRIDA KINHULT: Yeah, it was pretty steady. Took advantage of some opportunities out there and very stress-free golf in between. Kind of bunch of tap-in pars, and then, yeah, again, took advantage of some birdie opportunities.

Yeah, stress-free and fun.

Q. You mentioned some tap-in pars. Only 11 putts on the back nine today. Was the putter hot or was it just good scrambling out there?

FRIDA KINHULT: I would say probably a little bit of both. I missed a couple of greens but they were like really close, so even some of them were like a putt, but just off the fringe.

I guess my gut had a feeling it was going to be a little bit more putts, but some of them were probably just off the green. No, it was a couple saves, but not too -- again, not too stressful. Good scrambling, yeah.

Q. Finished the day birdie, eagle. How nice was that going into the weekend with a strong finish on Friday?

FRIDA KINHULT: It was good. Didn't really hit it as I wanted on the last but we'll take it. Had a good bounce. Fortunate enough it's kind of soft greens. Yeah, it was fun. I'll bring some good vibes into the next two days.

I'm sure people will go out and make birdies this afternoon, so just keep on fighting and have some fun.

Q. Had a lengthy putt it looked like on 18 there. What was the length on that?

FRIDA KINHULT: Yeah, it was like 11 meters. What's that? I should do math. 36 feet maybe, something like that.

Yeah, it was a little bonus one. That felt good.

Q. Going off the golf course a little bit, there is a new accessory in your life; got engaged recently.

FRIDA KINHULT: I did.

Q. How much fun has it been to a fiancee and bring that happy energy to the golf course?

FRIDA KINHULT: It's been great. I became a fiancee over the summer and an aunt about two weeks ago, so off golf we're living life, so it's super fun and exciting. I think the energy, I probably bring that into the course as well.

Family is definitely having a good time.

Q. There is quite a few of you that got engaged recently. Are you all like trading wedding planning tips?

FRIDA KINHULT: Well, we are two Swedes over her, so I've set the limit. We're probably in between two to ten years. Yeah, no stress, but obviously down the road my Instagram For You page is all wedding dresses by now. I probably shouldn't tell my fiance about that.

His mind is probably ten years from right now, but I'll have my side plans.

Q. For this golf course, just how well does that place suit your game? I know it's got some undulations in the greens and in the fairways. For you, what is it that you're seeing out there that's allowed you to play so well?

FRIDA KINHULT: Honestly, I'm not a fan of slopey lies, so my coach and I, Matt Wahl, worked on it a little bit extra last week going in here.

So I'm just trying to not be superhero. Just trying to play the lies rather than work against it, which I've probably done bad in the past and learned from that.

So again, some holes that doesn't suit my eye at all. I guess we just hit and hope and make the best out of it.

Q. How do you get that out of your mental framework and keep yourself in the moment and lock into what you're trying to do?

FRIDA KINHULT: I guess target focus. It sounds maybe cliche, but just trying to lock in on a target, keep the swing as simple as possible, and don't like -- again, not trying to be a superhero and do stupid things. It's easier said than done sometimes.

So far this week I think we're keeping up with it pretty good.

Q. After struggling in Boston, what did you work on and how were you able to regroup coming into this week?

FRIDA KINHULT: Again, saw my coach last week a couple times. I think we just tried to reset whole system. Just found like a couple things to think about in the swing. Again, get back into that target focus. I also had a great chat with my mental coach, Marcus, on Monday. Just kind of flip the system around and just get motivation.

I think those swing lessons and that chat on Monday brought some good vibes coming in here and trying to make the best out of the end of the year.

Q. How would you describe yesterday's round compared to today?

FRIDA KINHULT: Yesterday probably had more chances, but obviously today was a better score, so -- or similar score. Yeah, yesterday was a little bit more steady on I would say. Still today was no crazy trouble, so two days of pretty stress-free, golf which is always nice.
