Q. Why do you think you guys are playing so well together? Is it both games are on or is it something about the friendship?
JASON DAY: I mean, I haven't got the greatest FedExCup ranking right now so I have to play well, so there's that added factor to it. Then obviously Jason is a good player, plays on the European Tour, and I know that if we have a great week, obviously that could be life changing.
We can't really get too far ahead of ourselves. We've just got to just stay as present as possible and just hit the shots when they come and just add them up at the end of the day tomorrow. If it happens, it happens, but if not, it is what it is.
The guys that are leading right now, Patrick and Xander, they're playing some phenomenal golf, so they're going to be very difficult to catch and to pass tomorrow.
Q. Under normal circumstances, that lead would probably look daunting, but between the weather and the format, does that help?
JASON DAY: No, it definitely does, especially when Sunday comes around. As you know, you've been out here for a long time, the score tends to squeeze a lot more other than when someone gets way out in front and they can kind of get in auto mode.
Tomorrow's format is difficult. If there's a little bit of breeze, it will add that difficulty, as well. If you're on the wrong side of it, it's really hard to gain momentum.
I'd like to be where those guys are, as well, but I'm pretty happy with where we're positioned going into tomorrow.
Q. I'm going to go against what you just said about not getting too far ahead, and he said it could be life changing for you. Did you know the top 5 gets you into next week, as well?
JASON SCRIVENER: I did know that, yeah. Look, like Jase said, one shot at a time, that's all we can really control. Yeah, obviously tomorrow is a big day, but just looking forward to having some more fun.
Q. You played well on Friday in that format. Does that give you a little bit of confidence?
JASON SCRIVENER: I think so, yeah, for sure. Just to know we can go shoot 7-under around here is a big bonus. Yeah, it's going to be an interesting day and I look forward to it.
Q. How much were you looking at the leaderboard, what they were actually doing?
JASON DAY: Every leaderboard I could see I was looking to see where they were at. I mean, I'm very much so a leaderboard watcher. I never -- I always want to know what I need to do rather than not have a clue what I need to do. Obviously coming down the stretch we needed to do something because we were kind of -- as I said before, we were a little bit stagnant through our middle part of our round, and it was nice to be able -- J had a really good birdie on 15 to get the momentum going, then 16, 17 and 18 for me. To be able to finish off with four birdies in a row, that gets us in a decent enough position for the potential of getting close to that lead tomorrow.
But obviously it's a long way away from tomorrow afternoon, and just got to go out and hit the shots.
