Q. All right, here with Rose Zhang after your third round. Really good round. Another solid day. What is the key to your consistency out here at Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club?
ROSE ZHANG: I think especially every single day you're fatigued after all the heat and the humidity out on the golf course. For me, it was just making sure that I had my game plan in mind right before I head out, right after the round, and I think overall just staying committed to every single shot, every single line I had out there, it was essential.
Q. Looked like a really good battle out there between and you Jasmine. How much was just that high level of competition helping you perform so well today?
ROSE ZHANG: It was incredible. I say this every week, but I feel like I'm learning so much from all the professionals out here on tour. They really show they're world class, and Jasmine, I never expected anything less.
It was really incredible to watch, and I feel like I'm still learning so there is just much to improve on, and I'm really happy that I'm able to fight alongside the best in the world.
Q. Of your many birdies today, what were some shots and moments that stood out?
ROSE ZHANG: I think just kick starting it off on 2. It was a very good approach shot and I got a little members bounce, and then making the putt just had me going a little bit more.
I think the most important thing out here just making sure you're making less mistakes. On 17 made a little whoopsie, but I really came back and fought back and stayed composed, and I think that's the biggest thing, just being able to stay in the moment.
Q. You are in position right now. How do you feel about that?
ROSE ZHANG: I feel really great. I just feel like being able to have this opportunity to come into the final round with a little bit of a lead is really great.
I think that going forward it's just making sure I'm having fun, having that game plan, and enjoying every simple moment.
Q. You said that in the press conference before that the experience of traveling around after joining the LPGA was something you wanted to soak in. How is the experience so far in Kuala Lumpur?
ROSE ZHANG: I love it. I love the food. I've been having Nasi Lemak basically every night and chicken rice.
But I'm really glad to be table to travel here. It's my first time in Malaysia, so it's really been a fun experience.
