Quick Quotes

Q. Played your way in. 3-under today. How good do you feel right now?

AGATHE LAISNE: It's good. Yeah, I don't know. It's just good to be done. It was a long two weeks. Very long.

Q. For sure. Were you stressing after yesterday at all?

AGATHE LAISNE: I was more stressed the first week I would say. The two last days I was less stressed so I played better, so I guess it's correlated.

But, yeah, it was okay today.

Q. Where did you find that in yourself today. Eight rounds is a lot of golf. Where did you find that 3-under within yourself today?

AGATHE LAISNE: Just keep it simple, relax, and I trusted a lot my caddie. I didn't do much. He handed me the club and I did it. Just a lot of relying on someone else was good.

Q. Having a caddie that has a player on the LPGA Tour, how much did that help you over the last two weeks?

AGATHE LAISNE: So much. So much. I don't know if I could have done it without him. Definitely like the yardages, the clubs, he was very, very accurate.

Q. Being from France, seeing how Pauline is playing really well and having Celine win on tour this year, how excited are you to just join the French ranks that will be just absolutely killer in 2022?

AGATHE LAISNE: It's awesome. It's really good because we are a small country, and to be able to do that in the U.S. is really -- I'm proud of them, and it's really good for our country.

Q. Have you talked to your parents at all or let anybody know that would be really excited for you?

Q. What are you most looking forward to being a rookie on the LPGA Tour next year?

AGATHE LAISNE: Just learning the job because I just turned pro so I don't know much. I think it will be fun to discover new places and see how it works. Yeah, get to know people.

Q. Did you expect to have this much success so quickly?

AGATHE LAISNE: You know, we all work hard for it, so if you don't believe it you don't make it.

I don't know. I don't know. I didn't really think about any...

Q. Was there any point in your round today where you kind of relaxed and you were like, okay, I feel better; things are going to go my way?

AGATHE LAISNE: Yeah, definitely. After nine holes I was 3-under and I feel like, It's okay. You can relax and take it easy. Don't make big -- like attack too much the pins. Just take it easy. And like even putts, if they're really speedy, just try to take your two-putt. Yeah, no big mistakes I would say.

Q. And how do you plan to celebrate tonight?

AGATHE LAISNE: We are having a COVID testing at 5:30 and then just go to sleep because I'm going LET Q-School Monday, so that will be a lot I think.

AGATHE LAISNE: I don't know. It's going to be hard physically I think. Mentally also. But, yeah, just reset and try to relax and enjoy and, yeah. That's it.
