Quick Quotes

Q. All right, here with Pajaree Anannarukarn after her final round here at the Cognizant Founders Cup. 4-under on the day; 7-under overall. Summarize the week.

PAJAREE ANANNARUKARN: It's been a cold week, and a little wet. Like I said earlier to you, I think I'll just take it because I've been playing really solid golf today and so yesterday, pretty much all week I really pleased with how I played in general.

Overall I think it's just moving to a good direction and hopefully I'll keep this good momentum going forward.

Q. How were you able to kind of battle the early-morning conditions today specifically? It was really cold and rainy. Only one bogey on the round today. How were you able to combat those conditions?

PAJAREE ANANNARUKARN: I think I didn't know that I made one bogey. I think I was just really focusing on hitting one shot at a time and try to stay in the present moment. I think I did really well today, so it just really helped a lot.

Q. Just kind of what is it about this golf course that maybe you liked throughout the week and what are some of the things that were a little challenging to you?

PAJAREE ANANNARUKARN: I think to me, I think it's considered as the tight fairway course, tree-lined course. I think if you've been striking your driver pretty well, I think that's definitely going to help for your next shot obviously because long rough.

I still think the course plays hard, difficult. But I don't know what Rose Zhang and Madelene been doing. I think we're playing in a different, completely different course. But they been doing pretty well.

Yeah, to me I think it's one of the challenging course. Just if you give yourself a good tee shot, I think that's really beneficial.

Q. Last one: What can a week like this do for your confidence going forward the rest of the season?

PAJAREE ANANNARUKARN: Definitely boost a lot of confidence going forward. I just really wanted to stick to my process and trust my game and trying to, again, improve my game every single day that I can and just try to enjoy it.
