Quick Quotes


Q. Interesting Saturday. First talk about how you feel like you've played so far in this third round.

XANDER SCHAUFFELE: Well, we're in the middle of it. Yeah, it was an up-and-down day. Maybe a good thing to restart, kind of get focused for tomorrow.

Q. You have at least five plus holes to play tomorrow and then you have the final round. From an energy-wise, talk about physically but mentally, as well, what do you need to bring to the table tomorrow?

XANDER SCHAUFFELE: I mean, those things are coupled. Once your mind goes, the body goes. Just the same stuff. It's hot and sweaty for everybody. It's hard to stay focused. I think I had a few moments today where I had a little lapse in focus, which I didn't have the first two rounds.

Just a lot of sleep. Try and rest up tonight and get some good recovery in, and really just plot away tomorrow. Only five holes and then 18 after that. Plenty of time to make something happen.

Q. What do you feel like you need to be focused on as far as commitment tomorrow?

XANDER SCHAUFFELE: Yeah, I'd say just, like I said, I had a few moments where I lapsed today, which I wasn't very happy with. Just giving it my best, my 100 percent focus tomorrow. Not that I wasn't trying today, I just wasn't all there on certain shots, which I'm not super happy about, but I will sleep on that and then regroup for tomorrow.
