Quick Quotes

Q. So very close there at the end. Overall a good day, but Celine played so well. What's the big takeaway from today?

JIN YOUNG KO: Well, yeah, I had a lot of great shot for this week. I had great putt. Overall this week was amazing and I really enjoyed it.

I was thinking on the back nine as today I need to more birdies but I couldn't, like putter or shot. I needed a little more lucky.

But I'm still pretty good and this week is my three in a row, so I'm little tired right now so I can't wait for next week.

Q. At 18 did you know you were a stroke behind? Did you think about being any more aggressive?

JIN YOUNG KO: Yeah, I knew it, but the putt was not easy. But, yeah, I was thinking it's pretty fast, but it wouldn't -- it wasn't, so, well, nice par.

Q. Very good par. Very good par. Overall a fun day playing with Inbee and in front of these crowds and with Patty?

JIN YOUNG KO: Yes. I'm always happy to play with Inbee. She's like Hall of Famer and she's like amazing player. I learn a lot of things from her.

And, yeah, she played well today and we both play well, but we needed a little more lucky for the win.

Yeah, Celine play well today so she win.

Q. Last question from me: Next week Founders Cup. You're basically defending champion.

JIN YOUNG KO: Yes.

Q. I know you're tired. How do you rest between now and next week?
