Quick Quotes

Q. Congratulations. Tough day, it must have been.

VALENTINE DELON: Tough day. This afternoon was really windy.

Q. I was looking at some of the scores of the other players, and you were playing some of the best golfers there, I think. Not many out there.

VALENTINE DELON: Not many birdies. I was just trying to do some pars because I knew, in this windy condition, par would be fine.

Q. There was a stretch, maybe three birdies in five holes, I think you had?

VALENTINE DELON: I don't remember exactly, but I had a couple birdies that were important at a good moment.

Q. Was there any key moment in particular?

VALENTINE DELON: This morning or this afternoon?

Q. This afternoon, sorry, yeah.

VALENTINE DELON: This afternoon I would say I holed a really good putt on 10 and did a really good par on 11. On 12 she didn't do an amazing putt, so I was clear. Then on 16 I hit the best shot of the day, a 5-wood into the wind to 15 feet.

Q. How proud are you to be into the next round?

VALENTINE DELON: Really happy. I practiced a lot for that. So I'm really, really happy.
