Haeran Ryu shared her playing experience in the third round of the Chevron Championship
Haeran Ryu talked about her playing experience in the third round of the Chevron Championship. In the press conference, she said (via ASAP Sports):
“Today another good day in this week. Yesterday I learned golf is tough. Today I was just trying for the good spots for the easy putts, and I want to try to make some birdies for that, and then, yeah, that’s good for me. … I try, again, to play in the final round because last year final round I remember is not good. But I learned for the more calm and more comfortable and more slow, and everything go to the more challenge for golf.”
Ryu continued about her experience of playing in the final groups:
“I think golf is hard, and every day is different, and every day is so hard. That’s the key for the golf. But that is a good key to enjoy the golf, I think … I think so, more just focus for the golf.
“My eyes is too tired, and I cannot see anything because I was so nervous, and more comfortable for the golf. But I want to see more hazard or the kind of trees or kind of cloud and think about except for the golf. That’s a good key for that.”
Haeran Ryu, Mao Saigo and Lindy Duncan will start at 12:36 p.m. ET in the fourth round of the Chevron Championship.
