Q. Just describe your round today, how difficult was it in this humid and hot conditions?
CARLOS ORTIZ: It wasn't difficult, it's tricky out here, you get out of the position and you have to find a way to get it back in position. I felt I didn't maybe make as many putts as I wanted, I still rolled the ball fine, but I'm happy, I am in a great position for tomorrow and that's what matters.
Q. Only two back.
CARLOS ORTIZ: Yeah, if you tell me on Thursday that I would be only two back on Sunday I would take it because it's right where you want to be and I feel like I have a good chance tomorrow.
Q. Is there anything that you need to tighten up heading into the final round tomorrow?
CARLOS ORTIZ: No, I feel good. I feel good. I just think it's just patience and make things happen.
Q. Your roommate came close to a medal. Do you feel like you have a chance to try to make it up for him as far as the country?
CARLOS ORTIZ: Yeah, I would love to make it up for him and all the other athletes that work hard and try really hard, I feel like I have a realistic chance tomorrow and I'm going to take advantage of that.
