Quick Quotes

Q. Liselotte Neumann, 3-under 69. Birdie-birdie finish. That has to feel good going into the weekend.

LISELOTTE NEUMANN: Yeah, especially in the dark. No, it was really nice finish. Hit a couple of really good shots on the -- which was my last two holes, 10 and 11, so, yeah, no, super happy with that.

Q. How does it feel to be in contention in this championship being only its third year heading into the weekend?

LISELOTTE NEUMANN: I know, that's kind of what I been working for, and just trying to be somewhere close to the lead going into the weekend, that's what you hope for. I been trying to spend a lot time on the golf course lately, so I'm extremely happy.

Q. Yesterday Annika talked about how nice it was to play with you and she thought it had been over a decade. Talk a little bit about playing with her the last two days.

LISELOTTE NEUMANN: Yeah, I know. It's been quite a while, but, no, it's really nice to be out with her. You know, you feel like when you're playing with her you just got to step up a level. I got to bring my A game.

She's a little longer than me so I have a little hard time to keep up, but my putter was hot today. Putted great and had some really, really nice sand shots. Didn't hit the ball that well in the beginning, but couple of really nice shots coming in here on the end.

Q. Were you able to feed off one another the way she was playing?

LISELOTTE NEUMANN: Yeah, no, I think you sort of do when you're playing with someone that's playing well. You're inspired you to keep plugging away. I'm trying to obviously stay within my game, you know, sort of what I have with my golf shots and all that.

No, it's fun to play with someone that's playing that well.
