Quick Quotes

THE MODERATOR: Here with Amanda and Caroline after the third round of the Dow Championship. A really solid round today, one of the best we've seen so far with alternate shot. Just talk about how you both bounced off of each other today.

CAROLINE INGLIS: Amanda was just striping it with her irons. So she kept hitting it into like three feet, and I just tap them in.

AMANDA DOHERTY: We were both playing really well today.

CAROLINE INGLIS: We played solid. We never got ourselves into much trouble, just hitting a lot of fairways and greens, which is always really nice.

AMANDA DOHERTY: To not make a bogey in alternate shot, I feel like we played really well. No missed shots in super crazy spots and a couple of good up-and-downs. Nothing crazy.

Q. What's it like feeding off of each other's energy on alternate shot days like this? Kind of different from four ball when you're in your own lane a little bit. How is it these days working together?

CAROLINE INGLIS: It's fun. I think it's fun when you make a bunch of birdies in a row and get a little hyped up. You know like a round like that in alternate shot can go a long ways. Yeah, it's nice, like being able to keep each other calm and being there for each other.

It's just really such a fun format, and like playing with a friend, it's just a good time.

AMANDA DOHERTY: Yeah, I think we were both kind of on a roll for a little bit and definitely hyping each other up all day. I felt like we both were in a good space today for sure. At least I was.

Q. It seems like you never got down at all, but were there any conversations during the round today of any fist pumps or any moments that you remember that you were like, we've got it?

CAROLINE INGLIS: Amanda's caddie loves a low side five. She loves a fist bump. A lot of that.

AMANDA DOHERTY: The fist bumps.

CAROLINE INGLIS: You make a birdie, you got to give fist bumps all around.

AMANDA DOHERTY: Some fist bumps on some birdies and some like, come on, let's go make a few more. A lot of that today.

Q. Lastly, why did you decide to partner up? Who asked who? How did it go?

CAROLINE INGLIS: Last year at the beginning of the year, I didn't even know Amanda. We didn't even know each other. We got paired together six times in a row, so we just became friends.

We were like, do you want to be Dow partners? That's just kind of how it happened. Just naturally, yeah.
