Quick Quotes
Q. All right, here with Allisen Corpuz, a 65 is nothing to be ashamed of. What was the mindset heading into this final round today knowing what the birdies would be out there?
ALLISEN CORPUZ: Yeah, I mean, I was four back starting the day so it was really just, like you said, go out there and make as many birdies as I could.
Had it going on the front nine. Couldn't quite get a few to drop on the back, but overall still really proud of the week.
Q. Overall what are you most proud of? Is it that fight or is it just watching some of those birdies come in?
ALLISEN CORPUZ: Yeah, I would say honestly there is not much I would change about my Sunday round. I felt like the first three days I just wasn't hitting it as well as I normally do. So to feel like I kind of still put myself in the mix and, yeah, was like up there kind of up until the last second, I'm really proud of that.
Q. How proud are you of putting yourself into those spots once again?
ALLISEN CORPUZ: Yeah, I think it definitely is just kind of a comfort thing, where, yeah, just working on a few things the past year. Felt like I haven't really been in this spot in a while so it's really nice to just see all the work come together, and, yeah, at the top of the leaderboard again.
Q. What was the final hole like for you today?
ALLISEN CORPUZ: It was just kind of a bad number. Hit a really, really good drive. That was just a tough tee shot for me all week. Hit the fairway all four days, so really happy with that.
And I just think with how windy it was today it was just so hard to get good numbers. Felt like you're always taking a few off, trying to step on it. Really wasn't too bad of a wedge shot. Just a little out to the right. Made a good run at it. Just misread it.
Q. Was Jay kind of out there helping you calm down a little bit?
ALLISEN CORPUZ: Yeah, I mean, I think we both knew that we were right there. It was kind of in between me and Hyo Joo and obviously Lilia behind us. I think I saw four of us tied at one point after 15 or 16.
So I think just every week we kind of come to the last two holes and I'm like, okay, let's try to birdie the last two and finish on a good note. Wasn't able to do it today but gave it my best shot.
Q. What will you take the most from a week like this?
ALLISEN CORPUZ: I think just the grind and knowing you don't have to have your A-game to be contending. Just when it's there, I'm looking forward to that.
