Quick Quotes

Q. All right, here with Peiyun Money Money out there, nice round of 69 today. Bunch of birdies; just a few bogeys. How did you play today?

PEIYUN CHIEN: We play pretty well today because today still windy. We thought it might be calm down the wind a little bit but it's not, so -- and the wind is a little different today, so I think we're doing well.

Q. What is the challenge of playing such a windy course? You play in wind sometimes, but not necessarily always like that. What's the challenge?

PEIYUN CHIEN: I think you just have to care about your carry. That's the only thing you can only do it.

So a lot of wind, you have to hit lower, control the ball, always have a short club for sure.

Q. Interesting. Now, you are in a very good position going into the final round. Few groups left. You're three strokes off the lead right now. What's the mentality going to the final round on a place that can be this challenging?

PEIYUN CHIEN: Definitely have to play better on my par-5 today because I didn't make a lot of birdie in par-5.

So those my goal: Every par-5 make birdie tomorrow.

Q. How do you try and do that?

PEIYUN CHIEN: The right position is pretty important on this course, so a lot of different angle to make it easier to get close to the pin.
