Quick Quotes

Q. We'll start with the bogey-free performance. How good did that feel to put that together?

LINDSEY WEAVER: I hit 18 greens today, which was the first that I've done it that in a really long time, so that felt better than anything.

I just had a lot chances all day. There were couple I left out there. I had like 15 feet all day. I mean, when you hit a lot greens on this course you should have a lot looks at it, which I did. Only made five birdies out of those, but still good round.

Q. Some positive energy for leading into next week.

LINDSEY WEAVER: Yeah, for sure. Nice to have a good finish, and I think this will be my best finish of the year actually, so that's definitely a positive.

Q. And you'll climb up the CME points standing. I know that's on the back of a lot of people's minds at this time of the year.

LINDSEY WEAVER: Yes, of course.

Q. How big is that when you look at that in the grand scheme of things to make a push?

LINDSEY WEAVER: Yeah, well, I obviously know I'm teetering near the 100 marker, so, I mean, it's in the back of my mind but not something I've been really focusing on.

I just know that if I -- I love this course and I feel like I can play well here and make a lot of birdies. I think it was just more so focusing on shotmaking this week and everything just kind of takes care of itself.

Q. I want to say like at this very moment you would jump boot 70 range. Does that put maybe even a little more pressure? Or not -- I don't know. Does it put pressure on you to keep climbing and to have an even better finish?

LINDSEY WEAVER: No. I think it's more so the dread of like -- and the thought -- of maybe going back to Q-School. That's the worst. So as long as I can maintain to be out here next year then I'm good.

Obviously it would be great to have another good finish next week and the week after and for the rest of the year.

Q. And especially because you dealt with a lot of injuries over the last couple years.

LINDSEY WEAVER: Yeah.

Q. To have a finish here, when you look at kind of the trajectory of what the last couple years looked like with the injuries, how good does it feel to be in the driver's seat at this moment?

LINDSEY WEAVER: It's good. I feel like I kind of hit a little bit of a hiccup over the summer. Yeah, just trying to stay healthy is hard, and I withdrew last week for that reason. It was nice to especially finish well this week after that because I didn't know if I would really be able to play this week.

But once I got here I was totally fine and I felt very comfortable. Was never a problem all week, which was strange. But luckily.

Q. That's a good thing.

LINDSEY WEAVER: Yeah.

Q. That means last week's decision was that much smarter --

LINDSEY WEAVER: Yeah.

Q. -- for your long-term outlook, I would say.

LINDSEY WEAVER: Yeah, exactly.

Q. You had a lot of success on the Symetra Tour. You found some good success out here. At times do you feel like your game is maybe peaking?

LINDSEY WEAVER: I feel like this is definitely the peak of my year so far, so, yeah, I hope so, and I hope I can just continue into the next couple weeks.

But, yeah, season is almost over, so...

Q. Hopefully keeps going.

LINDSEY WEAVER: Yeah.
