Quick Quotes

Q. Joining us after the final round of the Dow Championship are Jin Hee Im and Somi Lee. You guys started your round really hot today. Six birdies in a row. Talk about your momentum today.

SOMI LEE: Jin Hee did so well. I think we would have had a better score from my end, and so there is a little bit of frustration there.

JIN HEE IM: Somi is saying I played well and I did, but it was a four-day tournament and I think we both contributed to that, so I want to tell her good job.

Q. Obviously you guys won this event last year. Why do you think this partnership works so well?

SOMI LEE: Jin Hee and I play so well and I'm not exactly sure the reason.

JIN HEE HIM: We understand each other and our play. I trust Somi and she has trust in me and I think that's why it works so well.

Q. How does continuing to contend in events give you more confidence at the mid-point in the season?

SOMI LEE: At Dow I get such good energy from Jin Hee and I'm always looking forward to this. In future tournaments I want to make sure we're able to learn from this.

JIN HEE HIM: Obviously I want win. I get such good energy from Dow. I don't know about last year, but I just wasn't nervous and it was so much fun place with Somi.

This year I was a little bit nervous and I think it was just from the pressure and everything, so once that was away for the fourth round, I was able to play better.
