Quick Quotes

Q. Birdies today at 8, 9, 11, and 13.

SARAH KEMP: Uh-huh.

Q. Any of those stand out on the day to help give you some good vibes in the tournament?

SARAH KEMP: Yeah, the mojo really kicked in on 8. I want to say that was like 40 feet. Hit it in the right bunker and hit a 7-iron out to about 40 feet and made that.

It kind of kicked me back into gear. Went for it in two on 9 and hit a chip shot to about -- 30-yard chip shot to maybe 15 feet and holed that.

9 was a 9-iron to about six feet.

So just, yeah, solid and just didn't have a bogey.

Q. No, I mean, after 8 -- or after 7.

SARAH KEMP: Oh, yeah, just the one on -- yeah, that's right.

Q. Just the one on 6.

SARAH KEMP: Yep, and I holed another bomb on 13. I want to say that was, oh, gosh, maybe like another 35-footer. Couple bombs today really helped.

Q. Do you to you like the tournament, the format, same courses, venue, prize winnings?

SARAH KEMP: I love it. I wish we could do more of it. Obviously never missed a Vic Open when it's been co-sanctioned with the guys. It's just fun. Like I love -- I follow them all the time. I follow the Australian boys and got to see them on the range this week.

Yeah, it's a lot of fun. I hope we can do more of it?

Q. Where does the game feel like it's at right now?

SARAH KEMP: It's really solid. I'm just putting great. Like I holed some really good momentum par saves this week, obviously some long birdie putts. But that's kind of been the difference this year. Just some few extra putts dropping.

Yeah, it's great.

Q. Next couple weeks? The Scottish and British or what's the next couple weeks of travel and preparation look like for you?

SARAH KEMP: Bit crazy. Going back to Orlando and I'm going to probably not touch the clubs until Thursday or Friday. So this was four in a row with all the travel. Yep, put them away for a couple days and come back for Scotland and British and then probably three weeks off.

Q. How do you game plan in Orlando for a Scottish and a British?

SARAH KEMP: You just hit a lot of punch shots probably, a lot of low shots, which probably not going to be ideal, but it doesn't matter. It's not like I'm -- I can go on the range and hit a bunch of punch shots for four or five days while I'm there.

Yeah, I'm sure keeping it low will be the key for practice.
