QUOTES OF THE DAY
“Started off a little on the slower side, we both didn’t really hit it off that well to get it started. I struggled to find a rhythm, but I hit a good iron shot on eight, and it got my confidence going. I was just trying to be as patient as possible, because I knew there were some birdies out there. I started striking it pretty well.” — Golfer Marina Alex on her first round victory Wednesday at the U.S. Amateur
“It’s the peace I’ve been searching for all 21 years of my life. I’ve found it and I’m not going to let it go.” — Defensive end Theron Kadri on his frame of mind entering the season
