Quick Quotes
Q. Started the day one in the lead and ended up tied with two others for the lead. How do you reflect on a day which ended in a magnificent eagle?
ANTOINE ROZNER: I think the eagle on last helped me big time. I'm happy with my day overall. I didn't produce my best golf of the week so far but I was always hanging in there. I managed to hole a couple putts on the back nine that were big for me.
I think shooting in the 60s here is good. It's always good. So I have to be happy with the score for sure.
Q. Happy with Rory McIlroy, that brings with it lots of crowds and attention. How would you describe the experience?
ANTOINE ROZNER: Besides being 50 yards behind on every tee shot, I think it was pretty fun. He's a nice guy. He's been very cool with me from the first tee until the end. So it was for sure a really good experience; a day I'll not forget.
But again, I had a lot of fun, and making eagle on the last was fantastic for me. I wasn't aiming there but yeah, happy with the results.
Q. An opportunity to win this championship and secure a card for the PGA TOUR next year. Your thoughts on those opportunities?
ANTOINE ROZNER: To be honest I don't know what to tell you right now because I'm going to try to focus on tomorrow and tomorrow only. Put a good score, and that's the only thing that's going to matter now for me. I have to come out with the right mindset, and yeah, do the best I can and we'll see how it goes in the end.
