Quick Quotes

Q. With Bronte Law after your third round at the ISPS Handa World Invitational. Can you just take me through your hot start today? Two birdies in the first three holes; how did that sort of turn out for you?

BRONTE LAW: Yeah, birdied the first, then it was really windy so knew that fairways and greens were kind of the priority.

Had a good chance on the second and then ended up missing the fairway on the third. Had a little mudball. Ended up just leaving it just short right of the green, which ended up being quite a good leave, and chipped that one in. That was kind of nice to be 2-under through 3.

Then just kind of battled on. It was really tough. I created quite a few chances even in the really tough conditions. I mean, we had some serious rain early on. It was like the umbrella almost kind of blew away at one point.

Yeah, just battled on. Felt like I created a lot of chances and just hope to continue to do that tomorrow.

Q. With sort of difficult conditions and also a difficult course over the last couple days, how important is just par out here for you?

BRONTE LAW: Yeah, it is, but at the same time, there is always someone making birdies out there, so you can't be too conservative. You have to create some chances. I did that today. Could have converted a couple more really, if I'm honest.

Shame to three-putt 17, but feel like my game is right there. Yeah, happy with how I played considering how windy and rainy it has been.

I think to play well in those conditions kind of bodes well for the coming weeks.

Q. Going into the final round tomorrow, is the strategy to be more aggressive? Is this a place you can be more aggressive?

BRONTE LAW: I think it has to be. There is only one thing I'm chasing and that's the top. For me, I'll go out there and give it my all. Yeah, I guess the conditions look a little better tomorrow, so might be favorable for some low numbers.

I mean, still, like you said, it's a tough course. Sometimes smart play wins over having that attack mode on.

So I'll just make the judgment when I'm out there with my caddie. We've been doing a good job so far. Kind of probably stick to the same game plan and hopefully get out to a hot start.
