Q. Here with Atthaya Thitikul that posted a number on Sunday. Had a bunch of birdies on the card. Tell me about those four in the row that you made there.
ATTHAYA THITIKUL: I mean, like, you know, like, I just -- No. 9 I just think like -- it's the start of birdie, like four straight, and then No. 9 I just think like, oh, dude, I just want like a birdie chance to putt like closer than I have when -- you know, like, I had three-putt yesterday on No. 9.
Then I was on No. 9 I was like, it's not a tough hole anyway. Why don't it give me a chance to putt it? And then I keep rolling it well like to No. 12; hit it pretty close. 13 as well; hit it pretty close, but I missed it so it was fine.
So, yeah, it's all good for today.
Q. And then birdies on 16 and 17. I know bogey wasn't really the way you wanted to end, but walk me through those two. I know 17 was playing the hardest hole on the golf course yesterday.
ATTHAYA THITIKUL: Yeah, it is. It is. I mean, like yesterday I played a bit late and then it was really windy like left to right and everyone kept going to the bunker on the right and kept making bogey as the best there.
Today, I mean, yeah, like I play in like early morning so it's not that windy, but I just hit and then just make the putt, like a long putt, not that close.
Q. What was your mindset coming into today? You were quite a few back and kind of played your way into the top 10.
ATTHAYA THITIKUL: I mean, like I would say like last week and this week I haven't had like really good games, not my A games yet.
But, I know that my mind got tired, my body, my health got tired as well. But I'm just trying to just like okay, let's do today like my last day, and then I'm going to rest and let's do this today, like a best day, and then you can get the rest and then you can, you know, like rest whatever you want.
Q. And just how proud are you of that effort when you're so tired, and what did that tell you about the state of your game?
ATTHAYA THITIKUL: I would say I know that I'm capable to make more, you know, like birdies, anything, but in the past three days I haven't had like a good chance or I haven't had like a really good chance to make a birdie as much as I can.
So today I just kept my ball as a position that I can make a birdie. So it's (indiscernible) pretty well as well today, and then pretty much say to myself like, don't give up.
Q. Just wondering, even as great a round as you played, do you walk off thinking, wow, that could have been a really low round after a couple of kind of errant shots here and there?
ATTHAYA THITIKUL: I have no idea because like I know that I can be lower than this. It's a lot of chance that I can make, but I miss it.
But overall I think it's pretty good for today. And then, yeah, pretty good, to, you know, like finish strong for this week.
Q. You said you haven't had your A game yet. How close is today to your A game?
ATTHAYA THITIKUL: Yeah, today was pretty good as well. Like I said, it's have like couples of like chance that -- yeah, you probably make it, but I just missed it.
Like hole No. 5 it's drivable and then probably -- actually you have to make it in that hole but I missed it, something like that.
Yeah.
