Quick Quotes

Q. How pleased are you with a strong finish on a course that has played a lot different than years past?

BROOKE HENDERSON: Yeah, definitely played a lot different this year. It was nice to finally get some birdies, and I feel like every day I kind of struggled coming in, so it was nice to birdie 18 today and finish strong.

Q. You had couple young guns in your group. You're still young, too. What was it like just to kind of see the next generation of talent out here?

BROOKE HENDERSON: Yeah, for sure. Albane?

Q. Albane, yeah.

BROOKE HENDERSON: I was impressed with how good her short game was, and it was fun to play with her and also with Jennifer too. I didn't know them before today, so it was, yeah, nice to get to know them and play with them today.

Q. Let's say the Top 10 holds up, which it looks like it will. That'd be number 58 in your career. Is 60 a fun milestone you're anticipating?

BROOKE HENDERSON: Yeah, for sure. I feel like every week if I can't win I'm definitely trying to get a Top 10. It's a backdoor way to be close to a Top 10 this week.

Hopefully I do get the Top 10 and creep closer to the 60 number, but just excited to be playing well right now and hopefully will continue playing well over the next few weeks.

Q. How much does the mindset change for a match play event?

BROOKE HENDERSON: I'm excited for match play. We don't get the opportunity to play it very even. I think the last time was in 2017 for me.

So it's just a whole different game, and I feel like mentally you have to play a little bit differently than week to week.

So I'm excited for the opportunity and hopefully go out there and hit some good shots.

Q. You think it's a good way to sharpen your game for a major?

BROOKE HENDERSON: There is definitely going to be a lot of golf to be played next week before a major championship, but I think I'm just trying to use every week to slowly get a little bit better and hopefully peaking for those majors.
