Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea
Q. With the winning singles today from Team America. Angel, you led out the Americans today. Tell me about your round.
ANGEL YIN: It was pretty tough in my opinion. Rio was playing really good. I three-jacked it on the first hole.
Just a lot of steady, good golf. We made a lot of birdies, draining putts. Can't really make a bogey. You are going to lose a hole. You might lose a hole even if you make a par.
Just really good golf all around. I think we both knew how much it meant to go off first, and how much this match means to go into the finals.
Q. Seemed like a critical shot into the par-3 16th for you.
ANGEL YIN: Yeah, it was huge because actually I had a bad time in the previous hole. I was a little bit over and they were like, okay, you got a warning. I was like oh, my God. I don't really get bad time. I was like, okay, don't talk to me. Just hit the shot and happened to be good.
Then I closed out with a birdie, so that was good, because I don't want anything bad to happen.
Q. Yealimi, you holed some amazing putts out there against a major champion. That must've been really great for you to experience.
YEALIMI NOH: For sure. I knew going into the round that Miyu is an amazing putter and she was dropping bombs from across the green. I knew I had to make a lot of birdies out here today to win the match. I think we only had one or two bogeys between the match.
Q. And you're into the finals. What are the thoughts going into this afternoon?
ANGEL YIN: I don't know. A lot of excitement.
YEALIMI NOH: Yeah.
ANGEL YIN: It's exciting. I mean, we worked all week for this, right?
YEALIMI NOH: Yes. For sure, yeah.
ANGEL YIN: So it's really finally happening. We always want something, but sometimes it doesn't happen. Now it's happening, so I think we're going to really be in the moment.
YEALIMI NOH: Yeah, and just have fun with it. We're in the finals. Just play some good golf out there.
Q. Top seeds coming in this week. Dominant so far. Good luck this afternoon.
ANGEL YIN: Thank you.
YEALIMI NOH: Thank you.
