Quick Quotes


Q. Okay, I'm here with Sei Young Kim after her third round at the Mizuho Americas Open. 6-under round today. Just talk about how you played.

SEI YOUNG KIM: Today's better weather. Yeah, kind of high temperature my body is more relaxed. First, second round we got the rain, so it's a little freezing so my body functions wasn't work.

And then today is, yeah, feel like free. And, yeah, especially moving day, third round, that I made a lot of birdies, so I'm very happy and looking forward tomorrow.

Q. And how do you stay kind of locked in on your mindset when you maybe have those rounds like the past two that I didn't necessarily love?

SEI YOUNG KIM: Yeah, try to keep the move forward, and then whatever -- sometimes thinking is going on in my head, so kind of negative.

So even that, I try to focus on what I have to do and then keep the positive. And then it's kind of struggle on the course, but we have to overcome. That's kind of sports, the mental game. Yeah, it is not easy, but, yeah, it's kind of challenging, yeah, all the golf.

Q. And obviously you've been in this spot before, few out of the lead heading into the final round. Any thoughts you had from your past few times in this position carrying it into tomorrow?

SEI YOUNG KIM: Last couple tournament I was going really good, my position, but I couldn't play well the final round.

But I keep learn from the every each tournament, but hopefully better tomorrow. So that's my goal, so, yeah.
