Quick Quotes

Q. Here with Mary after her second round here at the Walmart NW Arkansas Championship presented by P&G. 14 birdies for you on the week; eight today. What are you seeing from the course that's allowed you to score so well?

MARY LIU: I think I rest really well the past three weeks and then more fresh. And then just a lot of work paid off. Like golf sometime go up, sometime go down. Just this week it went up a little bit.

Definitely all the team works together to make the score like this, so I'm just a person who do it.

Q. Is there any part of your game that you worked on over your rest that you've seen work really well this week?

MARY LIU: Yeah, definitely. Yeah, I was bit tired after Boston, and then just for sure recovery and did workout and then really focused when I practice.

And then just learn a lot of new thing about golf.

Q. Anything in particular that you learned?

MARY LIU: Oh, yeah because I try different sports when back home, and then meet friends, meet family; just feel lots of love and be more fresh to come back and tournament, and then just really enjoy it and then happy for everything.

Q. What sports did you try?

MARY LIU: Archery.

Q. Archery?

MARY LIU: Yeah.

Q. How was that?

MARY LIU: That's really cool and you have to really focus. It really help me to calm down and then understand sports that is not just part of my life, it's also something else I can try.

Q. Back to here and Walmart, your best round of the season so far, 64. What has been working so well for you in your game in particular? Your irons? Drives? Putts?

MARY LIU: Well, actually today is not Plan A. Definitely not. I'm missing lots of shot but really lucky, and also I think some energy from the team, from my caddie, also from the host I have here and also the pro-am guest come watching me. All those good energy I think give me lots of good luck.

I made some incredible chip and then play. I just really accept it.

Q. What's the mindset going into tomorrow?

MARY LIU: Feels fast. It's already Saturday. I don't know. I have to ask my coach what should I do for tomorrow.
