Q. I'm here with Lexi and Ally. The last time I'll be standing here with you guys. This is pretty wild. Also the last time that you guys will be playing with each other. It's been a long time. How do you guys feel about that?

ALLY EWING: Yeah, just knowing what both of our lives are heading towards, it was a privilege to be able to play a round with her here this week. It's been a great honor playing alongside Lexi in Solheim Cups and just competing, so today was great.

LEXI THOMPSON: Yeah, same as what Ally said. We had a good time out there. She played some great golf. We paired up at Solheim and that was an honor as well. She's been a great friend and a great ambassador out here, so happy to play alongside her and hopefully we have a great future ahead.

Q. Awesome. You guys are two of the nicest people I know out here on Tour. I know we are all going to miss you a lot, but one thing. What are you not going to miss about competitive playing? I know we always get so nervous out there. Are you happy to not feel those nerves for a while?

ALLY EWING: Yeah, you know, I think for sure just be nice to throw on a pair of tennis shoes if I want to play golf in tennis shoes or barefoot, whatever it might be. So much of competitive golf is preparing like you're going to compete.

So just stepping away and being able to enjoy random rounds of golf without -- you know, who cares where I hit it.

Q. Barefoot golf, Lexi?

LEXI THOMPSON: Yeah, or maybe just taking some time away from golf. (Laughing.) I won't miss-hitting bad shots out there. I won't miss that.

Q. Good luck with everything and I'm going to miss you guys a lot.
