Quick Quotes

Q. Start of the day, looked like it might need a lot of work to get yourself up the leaderboard. Looking at the scores, you must be excited going into tomorrow?

GRANT FORREST: Yeah, just kind of dug in today and bogeyed the first and then after that, just plodded away. Played solid. The pins were a lot more tucked today. I think that's the only real difference in conditions. There was a little bit of breeze, but not much at all and yet the scoring has not been obviously the same as the first two days.

Yeah, managed to get 3-under, which is a result, so yeah, looking forward to it tomorrow.

Q. What's been key for you these three days?

GRANT FORREST: Just I've putted nicely, and a lot of slope on these greens, and the pace has been really good, particularly the last two days. Holed out well. I think really just been disciplined with my approach shots and just a few times where I've been not comfortable and just playing to the middle of the green and relying on my putting a bit.

Yeah, all in all it's been pretty solid.

Q. How have you enjoyed the atmosphere the past three days?

GRANT FORREST: I love The Irish Open. It's probably got the best crowds all year, I would say, here and Wentworth. Obviously will be out near Rory and wherever Shane finishes, as well. It will be carnage. It will be good.
