Q. How impressive was the six birdies?
MIN WOO LEE: There were some funky pins out there. But yeah, I mean, I made a nice birdie on 3 and left my putt short and had ten, 12 feet down the hill on a funky pin and it was just nice to get six in a row. I'm just over the moon right now.
Q. So when the rain delay comes, what do you do?
MIN WOO LEE: I was on my phone chilling out talking to my mates. Not much. There were five players in the clubhouse.
Q. Talk about the putt in 18 in regulation.
MIN WOO LEE: I hit so many good putts down the stretch, and they were just one roll or half a foot short. I mean, I was definitely nervous but I knew I had to give that one a go. Fitzy made two-putt and it was just my time to I guess shine. I played left-to-right, maybe half a foot of break, hit some pace and rolled it in.
Q. And the show of emotion at the end?
MIN WOO LEE: I don't know, I think just when I'm in the rain delay, my coach is there, you've got this, and just everyone who supports me. I have a nice fan base on Instagram and social media, so it was awesome to do it for them, too. I think that's why I was so emotional.
Q. Your caddie is going to get a nice bib, isn't he?
MIN WOO LEE: Yeah, we were talking about that. Fitzy's caddie had one driving the cart to the playoff and we're like, why does he have a gold bib. You've got to win one of these. Yeah, he'll have a nice gold one next time.
Q. I think it was six hours ten from you teeing off to you finishing. Where does that sit in your career?
MIN WOO LEE: I mean, I thought it went pretty quick. We were going at a good pace. It was kind of suck-ish that it was a rain delay but I didn't really want to hit that ball on 16. The ball was in a puddle and I had to hit down that hill.
It was nice to get a little softer conditions. It's one of the top moments of my life. I mean, you always dream about winning tournaments like this and especially this one, it's a big one on the schedule. So just happy for myself.
Q. You have a nice journey down to Royal St. George's. You have that to look forward to, so you reflect on this and you have massive confidence going into next week?
MIN WOO LEE: Exactly. Not much time to party. Not much time to celebrate I don't think but it's very -- for myself, lots of confidence and just do the same thing as what I did this week. I played Royal St. George's as an amateur. Don't really know it too much by heart but if I get to see it, I think I'll familiarize myself. But awesome feeling and I'm ready for next week.
