Q. Ian, how would you characterize your round?
IAN POULTER: The round was -- I mean, it was pretty good. Got off to quite a nice start, holed a nice bunker shot on 4 and didn't make an up-and-down. I had an opportunity there. So I think what let me down was a couple of the opportunities that were missed on the par-5s that definitely would have helped keep me a couple of shots closer to the leaders. And two softish bogeys today.
But the putter part feels good. I feel like I'm playing good if I can keep that, be aggressive -- I tried to be a bit more aggressive today than I have been the first two days. I think I need to with the guys in front. So I'm just going to have to be even more aggressive tomorrow and obviously make sure I don't make mistakes.
Q. How tricky were those conditions out there today?
IAN POULTER: It was tricky, but it was nice actually, after the first two days playing in not much wind. But the greens are drying out. They're actually speeding up a little bit. So it's going to be interesting tomorrow if we can get off to a quick start and have a little run at those leaders and see what happens.
Q. What's your biggest key tomorrow to try and chase down the leaders and pick up the W?
IAN POULTER: Don't make silly mistakes and obviously keep the putter warm. I feel really comfortable over the ball right now, rolling the ball real nice. I feel like I'm seeing my lines and I'm hitting my lines. If I can continue like that, obviously it'll create some opportunities. It's going to be to have a low one tomorrow.
