Q. Eight deep today, how would you assess your round? What was working well for you today?

COLLIN MORIKAWA: Kind of everything. Gave myself a lot of good looks, I was hitting it in the fairway. I just didn't really make too many mistakes. Yesterday I kept hitting some pretty bad iron shots, putting myself in some weird spots, and out here you've got to keep the pedal down and just keep giving yourself looks and hopefully they keep dropping.

Q. How were you feeling kind of mentally out there today? You make one birdie, you make another, you were on a little bit of a heater, the momentum was on your side. How was it mentally out there?

COLLIN MORIKAWA: I felt really good. I just had to kind of stay focused on what I was doing, sticking to the process and not really getting lazy with it. I think that kind of showed throughout the entire round that I was able to kind of keep it up. Still a handful more looks out there that could have dropped and hopefully we'll just get a few more throughout this weekend.

Q. You feel half decent where you're at heading into the weekend, especially after today's round?

COLLIN MORIKAWA: Yeah. I mean, hopefully we'll kind of be within seven. Eight's a lot, but eight's still doable come this weekend. This golf course, the way it's playing, you can post two really good low ones on the weekend. I'm definitely going to need that if I'm going to be in contention, but after today I'm feeling pretty good.
