Quick Quotes

Q. What an amazing win.

JULIA POTTER-BOBB: Yeah.

Q. 3-down, four holes to play.

JULIA POTTER-BOBB: Uh-huh.

Q. Walk me through how you got it done today.

JULIA POTTER-BOBB: Honestly, I was just telling my husband, you know, Lauren is a good friend of mine. She did yesterday. Ket did it this morning. So I knew it was out there. So even when was 3-down I just knew there were holes out there to get it done.

Thankfully I just kind of stayed in the moment and stayed with the swing and was able to hit some really great shots coming down the stretch.

Q. What was going through your mind? Was there a point where you really started to believe, hey, this thing can happen?

JULIA POTTER-BOBB: Yeah, I really liked my number on 15, so -- and I knew already playing the hole that there was some room behind the hole. I really knew I could attack it and still be okay.

Then to be able to make that -- drop that putt just got some momentum moving.

Q. When you finally come up to the 18 tee, match is all square, what's going through your mind? What is your confidence like? What are you feeling?

JULIA POTTER-BOBB: I'm honestly just glad to be on 18 because at 14 it wasn't looking like that. I just knew it was kind of anybody's ballgame. She's a great player, and so I just wanted to stay in the moment, hit some solid shots, and keep put thing the pressure on her.

Q. Would you say that belief in yourself no matter what, is that like a strength, something you work on, something you focus on?

JULIA POTTER-BOBB: Honestly, yeah, I think you have to -- again, kind of what I mentioned couple -- or yesterday. I have been here before, so just remembering that I've done it even when may be it doesn't feel like it's in reach. Just knowing that I have it within me I think can get me through some hard shots or tough holes.

Q. And then how are you feeling physically after 36 long holes today?

JULIA POTTER-BOBB: Well, the cart helps, but I'm definitely going to go rest up. Early tee time tomorrow. Still some amazing players out there, so just trying to stay as restful as possible, get enough sleep, and see what happens.
