Quick Quotes

Q. So you came out to a very hot start today shooting 4-under through the first four. What helped you get off to that start today?

MINJI KANG: I didn't really expect to play this good today; just trying to play my game. Having shot eagle on two with my 5-wood feels very awesome for me. Maybe I got more confidence after that eagle so maybe I was able to play good.

Q. How are the course conditions today? Were they to your liking?

MINJI KANG: It's very great from first day to now. It's very awesome to play out there, yeah.

Q. And then you're currently inside the top 10 and in a great spot going into Sunday. What's the mindset heading into tomorrow's final round?

MINJI KANG: Like beginning of this week I was trying to not think this is a major. I know it's important tournament, but didn't want to give me the pressure, so I was trying to play as the same event as usual, and I'll play the same -- I'll get the same mindset as tomorrow. But hopefully have a good finish tomorrow.
