Oliver Lindell

Mixed Zone

Q. Tell us about your round today. What went well for you?

OLIVER LINDELL: Really good. It was a stripe show on the range. Felt really good on the course. Hit really well the ball. There was a couple putts that didn't drop, but then there was a couple that dropped. So overall, really solid round.

Q. What would have been the strongest part of your game?

OLIVER LINDELL: I mean, it's been putting this week. On Monday when we arrived, I didn't know where the ball was going with the irons. Then found out from Thursday evening something. Yesterday hit pretty well. Today hit really, really well with the irons. Irons and putting has been really good.

Q. How comfortable are you feeling on a course like this, and especially if you're hitting your irons well?

OLIVER LINDELL: Yeah, I like links courses because there's not that much white stakes and there's a lot of people, so it's almost impossible to lose the ball. I've had a lot of problem from the tee, and it's getting better, and now here -- I've had a couple of misses today. Every day I've had a couple of bad misses, but still haven't lose any balls, so it's good at the moment.

Q. I don't know if you're familiar with the record of players from Finland here, but I think the best result from Finland is like T9, so you're very close to that. How do you feel about that?

OLIVER LINDELL: I mean, I know I'm pretty -- at the moment the game is really good, but still, it's hard to think that -- playing here for one week with the best in the world, I know they are much better than me, but one week, everything is possible.

Q. Great week for you, great score so far. How does one prepare for the final Sunday in between now and tee-off tomorrow?

OLIVER LINDELL: Just try to do everything the same as before. Nothing special. Today felt really comfortable. I was just talking with my caddie what's going to happen after this. I've loved it, that much people here. The first tee, all the nerves on the first tee, and I've hit the fairway every time before tomorrow. Just one day off.

Q. Have you seen the weather for tomorrow at all?

OLIVER LINDELL: No.

Q. A little bit of rain in the afternoon. Does that give you anything to prepare for?

OLIVER LINDELL: No, nothing different.
