Q. 66, how aggressive were you able to be in your approach and the execution when you went on the golf course today?
MINJEE LEE: You know, I got off to a really fast start, two birdies in the first three holes. So I just tried to take as much advantage as I could with the short irons in and short putts. So yeah, I think I finished really strong, and on the par 3s, so pretty solid day.
Q. How much were you aware of and looking at leaderboards in your position as you were making plenty of birdies out there?
MINJEE LEE: I think I looked at it on 10. And then I knew I was kind of close, so I just tried to make birdie on 11. The tee was up today, so yeah, you know, I tried to make as many birdies as I can today and I finished with 6-under, so I'm pretty happy.
Q. What do you do now? Obviously you're near the lead, plenty of groups to come in. What's the approach now?
MINJEE LEE: I think I'm just going to chill out. I think there's quite a few hours of golf left to play, so we'll see what happens.
Q. Can you please tell us what you felt today and what's your comment for today's play?
MINJEE LEE: You know, I didn't really feel too much pressure or anything. I was five shots off the lead, so I just tried to pray as aggressively as I could, given the conditions and the pin placements. Just try to hit one shot at a time and just try to hit each shot, like commit to each shot. That's pretty much what I did, and had 6-under today, which is a great score around here.
Q. What about your whole game, the whole four rounds?
MINJEE LEE: All four days I think I hit it pretty good. Some days, the putts didn't drop. But I feel like I've been hitting it pretty solid coming into this week. So I feel like I'm in a pretty good place with my game at the moment.
Q. What's your plan later this year?
MINJEE LEE: Like the rest of the year? I'm going to take about a month off after this, once I get back to Dallas, and then I'll play probably just the very end events to finish the year.
Q. What's your next goal?
MINJEE LEE: My next goal? To win my next tournament I guess.
