Press Conference

Q. You must be really pleased with that round to close the AIG Women's Open with a round of 67.

PATTY TAVATANAKIT: For sure, yeah.

Q. What were the highlights for you, the four birdies in a row from the 11th?

PATTY TAVATANAKIT: I mean, we have sort of the par 5, par 3 and par 5, so tried to play the par 5s as good as I can and scramble and score well and make up-and-down which I did. On that par 3, I had to hit a really good shot. I hit a hold shot into a right-to-left wind and ended up being a good spot. Gave myself a look, and ended up making the putt.

So I feel like the momentum was going really great until 11. I just feel confident, and then leading up to that point, ways just really, really having fun today.

Q. You're up no 9-under for the championship. Are you pleased with that performance this week?

PATTY TAVATANAKIT: Definitely. You know, I told my caddie going into the week, I think if I shoot ten to 12, I would have a chance, and you know, like I'm one out of where I want to be. I'm really, really pleased with how I played this week, even though I feel like I gave a couple of shots here and there every single day. I feel like the first couple days me scoring weren't there and it kind of came today. It was pretty much 80 percent today and it left me in a good position at the end of the week which I'm really happy about it.
