Quick Quotes

Q. Joined by Hyo Joo after her first round at the Aramco Championship. Continuing some very, very solid golf. What's been working for you so far?

HYO JOO KIM: (Through translation.) I'm honestly not sure what went super well. This is probably the best I've played at this course, and so I think I'm just going with that good rhythm.

Q. You've won obviously back-to-back tournaments. What's the mindset coming into week three? Is it see what happens or are you striving for a third win in a row?

HYO JOO KIM: (Through translation.) Coming into Vegas people keep telling me to win three weeks in a row. I mean, I think I'll just try my best like usual. There is nothing else.

Q. You mentioned you played this course a few times. This is the best you've played. What are some of the differences you noticed playing stroke play versus match play here?

HYO JOO KIM: (Through translation.) The fairway is softer and I think the course is generally softer. I like stroke play over match play, so I don't really remember too much about last year.
