Quick Quotes


Q. 5-under par today, 13 total. How would you describe the round?

THOMAS PIETERS: Pretty similar to yesterday. Played really well. I made loads of 10-, 15-footers. Only difference is I missed a couple shorter ones. Overall super happy obviously. Yeah, just really looking forward to the weekend and I enjoy this golf course a lot.

Q. You had two Top 10s the last couple events. You played Hong Kong and Singapore. What's been working well in your game at the moment?

THOMAS PIETERS: Just putting in the work. Just swing feels good. Not too many swing thoughts to be honest.

Short game has been good and I practice a lot on my wedges in my simulator at home and that's been paying off.

Q. And despite those two good finish, you switched out your whole iron set this week from last time I saw you. Can talk a little bit about that?

THOMAS PIETERS: Yeah, my irons were kind of at the end of their lifetime and somehow I ended up with some Miura irons and they've been working quite well. We're not quite there yardage-wise, but you've got a lot of wedges this week so I haven't hit a lot long irons yet.

But I really love the shape of them. The ball comes off really nicely. Yeah, I think they'll be in the bag for next year.

Q. You're in good position leading into the weekend. Any change in game plan for the last two days?

THOMAS PIETERS: Nah. Same thing.
