Quick Quotes
Q. Here with Lindy Duncan after a wild day here at The Chevron Championship. Can you put into words what the last half hour has been to make that putt get in the match and the five person playoff?
LINDY DUNCAN: That was the loudest I've ever heard on a golf course. The cheering was incredible. To make a putt like that to get into the playoff I'll remember forever.
Just walking the fairways people were chanting, go Lindy, and it was really, really fun.
Q. Did you give any thought to going for the green in two on the playoff after you had been there in two in regulation, or was it just too far back?
LINDY DUNCAN: Yeah, had no chance to get to the green. I was in the rough, downhill lie, so the ball was sitting down and it was about 235 yards to the pin, kind of into the wind.
So, no, I didn't really have a chance which was a bummer.
Q. What did you learn about yourself this week in this kind of pressure situation?
LINDY DUNCAN: I mean, I was talking about with my caddie, Stephen. We came off the playoff and we were just like, over the course of four rounds, you mess up so many times. We still made it into a playoff to win.
That just shows if you just keep going and just keep your head in it, you never know what can happen. I think I'll take so many great memories but also like an internal strength to just keep pushing no matter what, no matter how it feels.
You just got to keep going.
Q. For you, I know you said yesterday it was going to be life changing no matter what. Can you just put into words what this week meant to you, what it means to your career, what it means to your confidence heading forward?
LINDY DUNCAN: Yeah, Top 5 in a major, any week, is unbelievable; to have a chance, feeling the nerves. And I feel like I have some things to learn about how to handle my swing or things like that.
I'll reflect on it, and, yeah, but what a week, yeah.
Q. This is a big paycheck. I'm wondering how this might help you with your team or other things that I might like it add it help you out as you travel? Change your life in any way?
LINDY DUNCAN: I have not thought about that at all honestly. I don't even know. Yeah. (Laughter.)
Q. If you were to talk to little girls like you that just go out and grind every time, have to be gritty and resilient, what would you say?
LINDY DUNCAN: Yeah, that's such a great question. I really think that's the point of what we're doing. I feel like that's the purpose that we bring to the game, is to just keep moving forward. Don't look back.
You can reflect and try to learn, but don't dwell on it. Even if it may feel like the wheels are coming off or -- golf makes you feel that way a lot. I think the point of it is to kind of center off that and just get right back to the process and all that goes into that. There is a lot that goes into that.
Yeah, the young girls out there, we all have struggles. We all have stuff we have to face and deal with. Don't avoid it. Don't run away from it. Just run right through it.
