Quick Quotes

Q. 66, tied with the current US PGA champion, a good day at the office?

JOAKIM LAGERGREN: Yeah, sounds really good. Scored really well today so I'm happy with that.

Q. Three 2s on the card, not often seen around here, is that a testament to your iron play at the moment?

JOAKIM LAGERGREN: Not really. Hit three good ones. But it was a few good ones, a few bad ones. I feel like I wasn't at my best today, if that's okay to say after a minus six, but I feel like I have still work to do.

Q. We spoke in Crans after a great round, you're very hard on yourself even after you put a good round together. Do you feel like the consistency, which is what you're citing, what you're searching for, is coming through a bit more?

JOAKIM LAGERGREN: Yeah, I mean, you always want to improve, and as often in this sport, it's hard to have five hours of good shots out there. You always want to get those bad shots to be a bit better. I feel like the bad shots was pretty decent today, which I like. But obviously, it wasn't a hundred percent. But it never is really.

Q. Early in the week, but were you keeping an eye on the leaderboard as you were making progress?

JOAKIM LAGERGREN: Usually do, yeah, yeah. It's hard to not watch.

Q. Lastly, 69 on The Race to Dubai at the moment, how important is it for you to secure your spot for the Playoffs?

JOAKIM LAGERGREN: Yeah, that would be huge. Love these Playoffs events in the Middle East. So looking forward to secure that spot with some good play.
