NOTABLE QUOTES
Maude-Aimee Leblanc (-7, T2) on finishing tied for second:
“I think overall it’s a great event, the venue is great. It’s still a new course, so the greens are going to be firmer but overall, it was a great week. The people here were amazing. I can’t complain, I played really well, it was just tough today. I tried to keep some pressure on Bailey, but she played really well so she deserved the win for sure.”
Paula Reto (-2, T4) on what she takes away from her performance:
“I’m really happy with my offseason work I have put in and working really hard with my coach on certain aspects of my game. It’s nice to get a head start on the year, and just keep building at it, one tournament at a time. Patience is key for me because I get ahead of myself sometimes, but I am learning to stay in the process. It’s nice to get things going earlier than normal.”
Elin Arvidsson (-1, T8) on learning from her rounds in Hurricane this week:
“I am fairly disappointed about today and the first day. I have had issues with my putting but this week I actually started to putt better so I am excited about that. I need to just keep working on that in addition to really learning my game more and more each week.”
