Quick Quotes

Q. Linn, round of 70 today. How do you find your third round here at Galgorm?

LINN GRANT: Started off pretty good. Unfortunately had some trouble on No. 6, which is a difficult hole according to me.

Then managed to get some birdies on the back nine, but still not quite there. Still pretty good golf.

Q. How proud of yourself are you for getting over what happened on the 6th and continuing to build momentum?

LINN GRANT: Yeah, I just think it's important. You know you have both 9 and 10 coming up that are very big birdie holes, so you have to get rid of whatever negative thoughts you had and move on and get those chances.

Pretty much everyone makes birdie out there today.

Q. And in terms of your game, you say you're not quite there. What's not quite clicking for you?

LINN GRANT: I'm not feeling as confident with my shots as I would like. I'm standing over the ball and I'm a little -- yeah, I'm just quite not 100% fully -- I'm committed to what I'm doing but not believing it will happen kind of, just because, yeah, just not having the best shots out there today.

Some misses that miss like both sides kind of makes it even tougher, so I have to go back to my safe shot.

Q. And playing four weeks in a row now, do you think that's having any impact on where you are or just kind of something you've got get used to?

LINN GRANT: At the moment I feel like I'm fine. Feel like it's going to hit me later.

But I mean, I think it's also because we haven't played like four weeks in a row in extreme heat. Been in Scotland for a couple days; it's been nice.

At the moment I'm fine.

Q. Also playing with Maja today, which hasn't happened since Germany when you played together. How much fun was that out there?

LINN GRANT: Yeah, we just had a lot of fun. We said before the round, let's go out and make like -- do a game together, like make as many birdies as we can as a team. We didn't make our goal, but not too far off.

Nice to have someone cheering you on even though you're fighting a little bit as well.

Q. And still firmly in the top 10 heading into tomorrow. What are you expecting?

LINN GRANT: Well, I hope that I can find something for tomorrow that kind of puts me in a better mental spot coming into every shot. Just kind of have more chances at birdies, getting close to the pins, and holing some more putts.

Didn't hole any extra putts today, just the short ones. It would be nice to get one or two extra ones that you just need.
