Q. Gary, bogey-free 65 and able to finish it here on Saturday night. What were your overall takeaways of the round?
GARY WOODLAND: Excited to finish. I didn't want to -- the 5:00 wake-ups have been a lot this week. I played well. I've been playing well the last month really, so it's been nice.
It was nice to come out here, and especially when it got tough last night, obviously on the good side of the draw which helps.
Came out today and played solid as well. Tee-to-green saw some putts go in. Nice to put it all together.
Q. You had a solid finish in your last time out at Sanderson. What have you been seeing in your game in particular?
GARY WOODLAND: Everything is starting to come together. I feel a lot better for one. That's a one. That's a huge help. But I've seen some signs. I've been back with Randy Smith for a couple months now. I am starting to drive it better, iron play, controlling the golf ball like I haven't in a long time, which is nice.
Then putts start going in, start putting some good scores up.
Q. It's your 24th start this year. How has that energy level has been?
GARY WOODLAND: The last month has been really good. I just hit a year couple weeks ago so that's exciting. It's all coming together. I'm feeling better and the game is coming around, which makes a lot of sense.
I'm excited and happy to be here and really happy to finish tonight so I can get some sleep tomorrow.
Q. Just strategically for you, the two leaders of the tournament right now have to finish up their round tomorrow. You mentioned you get to sleep in. That's an advantage. What are some of the other advantages of being able to focus on that final round tomorrow?
GARY WOODLAND: Massive advantage where I'm coming from. I'm not too worried about what anyone else is doing right now. I'm focused on myself. I'm excited to start feeling better and see great things in my game, and excited to sleep in tomorrow.
So I'm not too worried about what anybody else is doing. I'm going to go out and continue to do what I've been doing and hopefully put a low round together.
