Quick Quotes

Q. All right, here with Celine after her final round the Meijer LPGA Classic for Simply Give. 5-under 67. Started off with a couple bogeys and rallied back. Talk about how the game was feeling and how everything went today.

CELINE BOUTIER: Yeah, I thought I played pretty well all week. Yeah, today got off to a kind of tough start, but was able to get a few birdies in and just stayed patient. Gave myself a lot of chances; took advantage of the par-5s. Overall pretty satisfied with my round.

I feel like I gave myself a lot of chances throughout the week and very satisfied with out overall result.

Q. Looks like after the first two holes the ball striking really started to click. Only missed one fairway and one green after that. Was there something, a swing thought that happened or did everything fall into place at the right time?

CELINE BOUTIER: I think just a little bit of nerves kind of went away a little bit. I just didn't hit it that bad the first two holes, but just didn't put myself in good positions.

So I was able to let go a little bit and just focus on hitting good shots and I feel like that paid off. So that kind of worked out.

Q. Talk about this community a little bit as well. Each year seems like the crowds and fans get bigger and embrace the players a little bit more. Just speak to that a little bit.

CELINE BOUTIER: Yeah, I think it's pretty amazing what they were able to do with the tournament throughout the years. I feel like it definitely keeps getting bigger and the whole community and city around Grand Rapids have really been really involved and really show up a lot of support for the tournament throughout the week, especially since the first day.

I feel like it's very heartwarming to see so many faces and support for us is very nice to come back to.

Q. And then obviously next week is KPMG, a major championship. Putting together a round like this, what does that mean?

CELINE BOUTIER: Yeah, I feel like it's very good for confidence. I feel like my game is pretty good. I felt pretty confident about my long game and my short game as well.

So I think it's going to be fun to be able to put it to the test for a major. I think it's going to be a very different course. But I feel like any kind of positive and confidence I can bring for this week can only help.
