Quick Quotes

Q. You started on the back nine, so your front nine, your back nine, tore it up. Walk me through the three birdies in a row.

LINDSEY WEAVER-WRIGHT: Yeah, I hit it to about six feet. I thought three was kind of playing a little bit difficult. I hit 8-iron into it. I had to hit 3-wood off the tee and it's a tough hole. Hit that to about six feet and made the putt and I had a lot of looks at it on the front nine. Just wasn't really capitalizing on anything. But I knew if I just stayed patient and kept hitting greens that things kind of fall into place and then I made a longer one on 4 from the collar. Then 2-putted from 5. Then made a 15-footer on 7 as well.

So yeah, I hit the ball pretty well today. I hit a lot of greens which I think is really important here. Just giving yourself a lot of chances and if you miss the green it can be kind of dicey in a lot of areas. I think I did that pretty well today.

Q. How do you stay patient, nine pars in a row, or more, how do you stay patient and wait for those birdies to fall?

LINDSEY WEAVER-WRIGHT: Like I said, I just have to remind myself that if I just keep hitting greens and stay patient, I will make some and that's kind of what happened.

I made bogey on 1, so I wasn't too happy about that but I just moved on ask hit it close on the next couple and was able to convert those.

Q. What's your experience with links golf?

LINDSEY WEAVER-WRIGHT: I've played this event quite a few times, maybe four times now. It's pretty positive. I mean, I like links golf. I feel like I hit the ball low so it like, I can ride a lot of the fairways with driver.

Yeah, it's interesting the way you have to play it with a lot of slopes and these greens are really undulated so it can be kind of tricky and we were lucky that we didn't have too much wind today or rain. So yeah, links is always fun to play. It's just very different from what we usually do.

Q. You've come into your own last year to this year. What's the new mentality that's been working for you?

LINDSEY WEAVER-WRIGHT: Just trying to stay a little more even keel. I've always wanted to do it. Just the hard part of actually doing it. The way I talk to myself, my mentality is better than it has been in prior years and now that I've secured myself for this year and pretty much know that I'm going to be playing out here next year, I can have a little more freedom and not feel as much stress.

So I think that frees me up a little bit as well.
