Quick Quotes
Q. Here with Minjee Lee after her third round at the Blue Bay LPGA. Two eagles on the day. Take us through the round.
MINJEE LEE: Yeah, so they were both chip-ins. A little inspiration from my little brother. No, they were in really great spots to chip, so, yeah, had a good opportunity to hole them.
Definitely more on the, what's that hole, 15th hole. I was just on the rough; kind of got lucky to stay there. Chipped that one in. The one on the Par-5 was a little bit tougher, but it was nice to see it go in.
Q. In contention at place you've already won. What are the feelings? Does it bring back anything from 2016?
MINJEE LEE: I feel like it's a little bit different conditions. I'm not really sure, but like it was nine years ago so I don't really remember too much. I just know that I have good memories.
But I feel like I have to be quite patient out there. Like the first few holes I didn't really capitalize on my birdie opportunities, but then I knew I had some opportunities to finish the round.
So, yeah, just trying to stay patient and let the golf come to me more than anything.
Q. Last one: What will you take from the last three rounds heading into Sunday?
MINJEE LEE: Yeah, probably didn't hit it as good today. Probably missed a few more greens and were not in the right like complexes. So just going to try and clean that up a little bit and do a little bit of putting and see them -- like see the ball go into the hole and try and have some good visualizations.
