Quick Quotes

Q. Here with Yu after her third round to the Mexico Riviera Maya Open at Mayakoba. Solid round today. Can you talk us through what it took to put out a good score today?

YU LIU: Yeah, I would say I scored very well today with the game that I had. It was just hard to follow up a really great round yesterday.

So the today the game, I wouldn't call it as solid as yesterday. I was hitting a little bit of loose shots here and there. Overall, really happy how I handled it today.

Q. One of the hardest things in golf is following up a low round with another low round. How do you manage your expectations?

YU LIU: I just really don't have a lot of expectations on this course because I felt like last year coming here I didn't do very well. I just feel like it's a very tricky golf course, and you really need to be on top of your game from tee-to-green.

Q. In the middle of the afternoon the winds were picking up a little bit. We saw some higher scores come in. You managed to finish under par. Can you just talk about the wind and how it changes this golf course?

YU LIU: Yeah, at least the good thing is like the wind direction stayed pretty steady throughout the week. There was some slight change here and there, but overall the layout hadn't really changed. The wind has been blowing from the same -- like the prevailing direction, so it played pretty similar all three days.

Q. You were in a similar position to this in Blue Bay. Talk about what you learned from that event and what you'll take into tomorrow.

YU LIU: Yeah, I learned a lot. I was very uncomfortable that week at Blue Bay, but I feel like I handled a lot better today.

So tomorrow we'll see how the grouping will be like, so I'm very looking forward to it.
