Quick Quotes


Q. All right, round of 64. You closed with four straight birdies, even with that delay in there. But another really solid round of golf. How do you feel you played today?

CELINE BOUTIER: I feel like any iron game and putting was really good. I definitely did not have my best with my driving, but I managed to save some pars and give myself good chances.

Overall pretty happy with my round.

Q. Tell me about the birdies you had on the last four holes. Any of them particularly close? What happened there?

CELINE BOUTIER: Just so the tee was up on 15 and just made up and down for birdie there.

And then 16 I made about maybe 14 feet or so for birdie.

And 17 stuck it to two foot.

And then 18 I had made maybe 12-Footer.

Q. Okay, nice. Is your family out today?

CELINE BOUTIER: They were, but then they left after the rain delay.

Q. I don't blame them. How much did you have left to play when play suspended?

CELINE BOUTIER: I had two holes.

Q. Two holes, okay. So you still had to continue that streak. Were you thinking about it at all? When you're playing so well, how do you ride out a delay like that?

CELINE BOUTIER: I wasn't too worried about it. I just feel like I just had to get it done. I just tried to hit the fairway, because I was struggling a bit off the tee. So I was just focusing on that.

And then hitting the green, I feel like the approach shot on 17 is pretty tricky, so I just want to get on the top level, and I managed to hit it close, so was even better.

18 I had to layup, so my approach shot was quite long and wasn't too easy, so I had to manage to get it on the right level on that one, too, and then the putt was kind of a bonus for me.

Q. And then finally, you've had two really solid rounds here, 65, 64. What's the game plan? What are your thoughts as you head into the weekend?

CELINE BOUTIER: I just hope I can hit more fairways over the weekend just to make my life a little bit easier.

But overall I just know it's going to be scoring pretty low, so I'm not really too worried about the scores or anything. I know that the girls are going to shoot low, so I just have to keep playing the way I've been playing the past two days, and then hopefully I have two more about rounds in me.
