Evian-les-Bains, France
Q. By any means you have not played poorly in any regard, but a little bit of a tough finish. Overall day, did you think you played well enough and Lydia just kind of took off?
LEXI THOMPSON: I played well enough in my first nine. I struggled on the back. I kind of lost my tee ball and didn't hit good iron shots, and it's kind of hard to beat somebody that shoots 63. I mean, she played amazing. She deserves it, and I mean, she ball-struck the heck out of this golf course and putted it really well. You can't get much better than that.
Q. You played well all week; you have some good momentum going into next week. This is going to be a hard one to swallow, but you played very, very well?
LEXI THOMPSON: Yeah, definitely. Going to take a lot of positives out of this week going into next week, representing my country. I'm really, really excited to play in Solheim. This is definitely a win I want to have under my belt, the Evian Championship, but a lot of years to come. I'll keep on coming back. But Lydia deserves it. She played amazing.
Q. I'm sure a lot of people were watching, and just such a dynamic young duo out there, it was exciting. You guys are friends; was it fun to watch each other play well going back and forth?
LEXI THOMPSON: Yeah, yeah, overall it was a fun day. It's fun to make birdies, but also to watch another competitor make birdies and feed off each other, it's always nice. She has a great personality, very laid-back, and that helps her out on the golf course. She's got a great attitude out there.
Q. What impressed you the most about Lydia today?
LEXI THOMPSON: Probably just -- I don't even think she made a mistake. She was just so consistent today, just played fearless golf. Everybody knows she's a great ball striker and amazing putter, so it just showed today.
