BANK OF HOPE FOUNDERS CUPMarch 22, 2019Celine BoutierPhoenix, Arizona Q. So not the way you wanted to end your round, but still playing incredibly well; 10-under. How did you feel coming off the golf course? CELINE BOUTIER: Yeah, I don't feel great right now. I just feel like -- I just like struggled to make some birdies today. I feel like my long game was not as good as yesterday at the end. I just didn't make that many putts. And then, yeah, just not a good finish. I thought it was pretty average day. Q. Was it weather conditions? The day started out so cold and it's nice and hot right now. Anything you thought was a change to your round or just not your day? CELINE BOUTIER: Yeah, no, I don't think the weather -- I mean, it wasn't very windy so it was playing -- I thought it was playing pretty easy. Like the par-5s were much shorter, but I just didn't take advantage of those very well. So I think just my game wasn't very good overall. Q. If your scorecard is correct you had an eagle on 15. CELINE BOUTIER: Yes. Q. So the Aon Risk Reward Hole this week. CELINE BOUTIER: It is? Q. Yeah, so good there. Tell me about the eagle there. It was moved up today? CELINE BOUTIER: No, I was just like super lucky because I pushed a driver and hit the cart path, so I ended up hitting my drive like 340 and had 5-iron in. Hit it in the bunker and holed out from there. Q. That's some risk/reward right there. Never know. CELINE BOUTIER: Yeah. Q. Still at 10-under, two strokes off the lead. You're still playing well, still right in this. What do you work on going into the weekend? CELINE BOUTIER: I think I'm going to work on my driving and wedges. Hopefully tomorrow be better and have more birdie opportunities. Q. Last question: Yu Liu is up at the top of the leaderboard tied for first right now. I know you played together at Duke on the National Championship team. What's it like to see another Dukie up there on the leaderboard with you? CELINE BOUTIER: Yeah, it's awesome. She's one of my closest friends out here. We played on Symetra Tour two years ago together, we graduated together, and then last year we had a pretty good rookie year on the LPGA Tour together. It's awesome to be playing well like both of us. I don't think I could have hoped for better for the both of us. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports   |
