AMY ANDERSON:  After I got through hole 1, my stroke started feeling better and so then it came around.

Q.  You had at crowd cheering for you out there.  

AMY ANDERSON:  Oh, yeah.  They're so much fun out there.  I feel like there's so much support for me, so I was having a blast, even though I wasn't playing well at first.

Q.  Having an entire day off ‑ and obviously you were in pretty good rhythm ‑ what does that do to you, and how did you pass the time the entire day? 

AMY ANDERSON:  I enjoyed it.  We played five holes in the morning, and then I practiced till about noon, took care of some media stuff.

I just went home, took a nap, tried to catch up with some friends.  We went out to dinner.  Just really low key.  Pretty relaxed.

Q.  I've heard your birthday is this weekend; is that right? 

AMY ANDERSON:  Yes, tomorrow.

Q.  Celebrating your birthday at the U.S. Open, how great is that? 

AMY ANDERSON:  It's awesome, and especially that I'll be playing.  That just makes it all that better.  It's a great atmosphere.  It's a lot of fun.  I couldn't really have a better birthday.

Q.  Your birthday is tomorrow, then? 

AMY ANDERSON:  Yes.
