Quick Quotes

Q. All right, here with Ina Yoon after her second round at the LOTTE Championship presented by Hoakalei. Only the one slip-up for you on No. 3. How did you overcome recording a double bogey and bounce back to finish the way did you?

INA YOON: I mean, at the time it was really hard to control. Like I was so mad at myself. But Kevin helped me to get back to normal, and put a lot of effort to just Mo on.

So I think that helped a lot. Yeah, thankfully made many birdies after that. My shot was great today, so, yeah, I'm pretty happy about it.

Q. Yeah. Scoring a lot on the back nine in particular. Is there something particular about the back nine that you enjoy more than the front?

INA YOON: I don't know. I feel like I'm pretty much same, but the score just better than front nine.

Q. On 26 putts again for you.

INA YOON: Oh.

Q. Yeah, currently tied in the field for least amount of putts needed. Is that again your short game is working well or are you just making more of those mid-range putts you talked about yesterday?

INA YOON: Yesterday was made many mid-range putt, but today my shot was great, especially like pitching wedge or 9-iron. Pitching wedge to 7-iron was great, so I made a lot of chance inside like nine feet and I made it many short putts.

So I think that's how I get many birdies.

Q. Going into the weekend with the lead, what's the mindset or maybe the strategy going into the weekend?

INA YOON: I think be pretty much same as I did two days earlier. Yeah, try not to think about score or like place what I'm at. Pretty happy about my place, may -- yeah, I put my place in a good spot. Just do same thing.
