Quick Quotes

Q. You came from 3-down to square the match. What can you take from today?

SOPHIA POPOV: Honestly I think we fought extremely hard. I think we actually played very well. I think especially in that stretch we were playing so well, and we actually played really well coming down the last like three or four holes.

But I would say especially Mina made it really hard today. She made so many putts. She hit it close when she had to. I would say she carried the team for most of the round.

We did everything we could, and I think for a second day in a row, it's just playing against a team that's making a bunch of putts, and that's what the Solheim Cup is all about.

We had a really good time out there, and I'm still super excited for tomorrow.

Q. Celine, you were part of a huge Sunday singles two years ago. Three of the first four matches went Europe's way. What are you going to tell Sophia and the others who haven't been in that position to expect on Monday now?

CELINE BOUTIER: I think you can just expect anything. It's 12 points; a lot can happen, whether our way or not our way. We've just got to keep playing like every point counts. Even we saw it with the juniors, as well. They were trailing by like seven points and just ended up winning, so anything can happen.

Obviously it's better if we're a couple points ahead, but we'll take whatever we have and fight as hard as we can tomorrow.
