Quick Quotes
Q. Okay, we are pleased to be joined by Allisen Corpuz after her first round at The ANNIKA driven by Gainbridge at Pelican. Hole-in-one on No. 3, the par-3. Just take us through that. Second career ace; first of the season.
ALLISEN CORPUZ: Yeah, it's kind of been a crazy season. I feel like this is -- like including practice rounds, this probably like my 12th hole out. So it's just been a year where -- I mean, I made a home-in-one in a practice round earlier this year a as well.
No, got to the tee and at first we were thinking maybe a 7-iron. We weren't sure what the wind was doing. Thought it was helping a little.
And then kind of last second we were like, 6 might be a little passive, but I think that's a better club. Took it at the flag. Thought the wind would be a little left, and just hit a really good one, just straight at it.
Yeah, I think the whole group got to watch it roll in, which was really exciting. I feel like you don't really get to see it all the time. Yeah, it was really fun.
Q. Another $20,000 donated to St. Jude's Score 1 for St. Jude's cause. Just how honored now does it feel to be part of that donation?
ALLISEN CORPUZ: Yeah, I mean, I love like the LPGA initiatives that give back to the community, especially like a cause like St. Jude's. I mean, it means a lot to know that the money is going to a good place and it's going to help people out.
Q. Just a little slower, steady round following the ace. What do you take away from this round going into the rest of the week?
ALLISEN CORPUZ: Yeah, absolutely. I hit the ball really well. Everything was like pretty good. I just don't think it was quite my best. But pretty good momentum headed into the next few days and, yeah, try to keep it going.
