Quick Quotes

Q. Obviously there's only been one podium sweep by one team; it was the first tournament we ever had. You guys obviously have a chance to do that tomorrow. It's kind of interesting, exciting. You're trying to catch Rahm and Tyrrell. How do you process it?

TOM McKIBBIN: Yeah, it's cool. Today getting to play with Jon in the final group was pretty cool. I've watched him win tournaments on TV for many years and even since I've been out here he's won a few times. Yeah, to sort of be around that and sort of have that environment under that sort of pressure is pretty cool.

Yeah, tomorrow will be much the same, so that will be cool to sort of try and fight it out with him and Tyrrell. Yeah, looking forward to it.

Q. Are you disappointed in that bogey because it cost you a spot in the final group?

TOM McKIBBIN: Yeah, yeah. It would have been cool. Yeah, a little bit annoyed. The golf course is tricky, so mistakes and bogeys are going to happen. Yeah, that was probably the only thing that I admit that I was annoyed about, missing that putt. Anyway, it'll be a good day tomorrow, and yeah, looking forward to it.

Q. At one point I think you had the outright lead early on. Do you feel like you've got a sense of confidence or comfortability around this course?

TOM McKIBBIN: At the minute, potentially, yeah. If you'd asked me that at the start of the week or even last year, I'd be like, no chance. But yeah, I feel like I learned a lot from last year, and there's a lot of holes that if you miss one side of the fairway, you sort of have a shot to the green, and if you miss the other side, you're completely blocked out. I feel like I've managed that quite well. I've driven the ball well. But when I have missed the fairway, it's been on the right side to get it up and around the green.

Yeah, I'm starting to enjoy the course the more times I play it.

Q. I would imagine from your perspective it's very cool, you come out here, join LIV Golf, and now you're teammates and you're chasing those guys but also trying to win the team title; there's a lot going on.

TOM McKIBBIN: Yeah, there is a lot going on. But yeah, I guess. Tomorrow we'll all be going out there just to shoot the best score possible, and we'll see where that stands after four days. But yeah, it's sort of a weird position. As you say, we're all playing against each other but then playing with each other. Yeah, it'll be an interesting day.
