Q. 4-under 66 to end your week here at Pelican Golf Club. Four rounds in the 60s, another really solid week of golf. How do you assess the week?
LYDIA KO: Yeah, I played really solid this week. I think my ball striking overall was really good. I felt like I left a lot of putts out there, but this is a really tricky golf course, especially on the greens.
You know, I feel like a lot of the distance putts that normally you would think are pretty good birdie range, you know, you're looking at it double, looking at it again, and again, and maybe I looked at it too many times, you know, few times.
But it's hard. You've got three-, four-footers and playing like a cup of break and still misses low. Overall I played solid. Hopefully I will be able to keep the positives from this week going into next week. Hope for a few more putts to drop.
Q. Looking at that, you obviously have a lot of kind of good juju heading into CME week. What are some of the things in particular you've been working on the last couple weeks that have really helped you?
LYDIA KO: You know, I actually haven't been home much. I played my sponsor's event in Korea the week after Arkansas. After that I came home for five days and saw Sean a couple times and I was off to BMW again.
So I haven't been working on new things. I feel like we've always been working on the same things, making sure my alignment is good. Sean was out here this week, which is nice, to kind of see -- like have him out and then him to double check to make sure everything is not too quirky, and he pointed out a few things and I think that those things really helped.
So, yeah, just going to keep it simple. At the end of the day you're never going to play perfect golf. You just have got to play the best golf you can with the game that you have going on.
Q. You did play some really good golf this week. Looking ahead to next week, I mean, it's been kind of a crazy busy season. I know you've been going non-stop. There are a couple days in between tournament rounds. What will you do over the next couple days?
LYDIA KO: I've got a board meeting tomorrow, so I'll be doing that in the afternoon. But other than that, yeah, take it easy. Tiburon I think is a golf course where you can go low, but at the same time it can get away from you as well. So just get my strategy.
The weather looked pretty similar to this week, so that's nice there is not a huge change in temperature. Other than that, just going to enjoy it and see what the week ahead it going to be like.
Q. Do you see any similarities between Pelican and Tiburon? I feel like Pelican doesn't have teeth until you get to the green, and Tiburon feels...
LYDIA KO: Tiburon there are some holes that -- I think the first few holes the driving is -- you need to be pretty accurate off the tee.
Then the greens are pretty big. Probably the most similarity is just the grass being bermuda, the run-off areas. Yeah, I think in the past I felt like your short game needed to be really on at Tiburon, so hopefully that will be the case for next week.
Q. How do you find the extra gear in your third week on the road to just keep the pedal down and keep going?
LYDIA KO: Yeah, just having good food, relaxing, and then getting a job done in a productive way. You know, I think when you kind of get into tournament mode the week goes by pretty quick.
So it's only four more competitive rounds until the season is over. Hopefully I'll be able to finish off on a solid way.
