#VolvoChinaOpen Rd 3: What they said


Benjamin Hebert (Fra) Third round 64 (-8), Total 199 (-17)

That’s golf, a crazy game isn’t it. I played very badly in the front nine, where I didn’t feel good in my swing and just tried to keep focused on what I’m going and I found my rhythm in the back nine so I’m happy. I had driver on the ninth which didn’t help me a lot, and I feel very confident with my three wood I can hit it low and long which helped me a lot on the back nine. It’s my first time leading after 54 holes and we’ll see. I’ve worked to be in this position and it’s going to be a very early start so hopefully we’ll have some good conditions and we’ll see what happens.

I don’t want to look ahead, I just want to focus on the rest of my day, my rest and see what happens tomorrow.

 

Jorge Campillio (Esp) Third round 68 (-4), Total 202 (-14)

It was a good round. I didn’t putt as well as the first two days but overall it was a very good round. I got my round going on nine and managed to save par on 11 and I played my finishing holes well with those two birdies. I wish I could make more putts but it was good as I have a chance tomorrow. It was exciting for the crowd as they brought the 18th tee box up. It provided you with chances for eagle or birdie. I hope to use my experience from last week to win but if Benjamin plays like he did today, then it’s tough. Hopefully I have a chance tomorrow.

Wu Ashun (Chn) Third round 72 (Even), Total 203 (-13)

I had a very good start but got into trouble in the back-nine. I don’t understand how I got those four bogeys. I hit some really bad tee shots, making it tough for myself to save par after that. When I finished playing the 15th, I told myself I had a good chance of making birdies in the last three holes and I was happy I managed to birdie 16. The crowds were great and I’m very happy to see so many of them out here this week.

Miguel Tabuena (Phi) Third round 65 (-7), Total 207 (-9)

I’m really happy with the way I’ve been hitting the ball. There’s still one more day left. You can really score on this course today as it was set up in a way where you can take your chances and go really low. But I’m not expecting anything. I made several mental errors which I don’t normally make. Although I’m not feeling 100% physically fit now, my dad told me, ‘can you imagine if you’re fully fit’. I got to be smart off the tee and take my chances.

Tirawat Kaewsiribandit (Tha) Third round 65 (-7), Total 207 (-9)

I’m going to give my 100% tomorrow. Mentally, I’m strong. I started off with a bogey as I missed the fairway and could not save par. But after that, I told myself to stay patient and keep trying. My putting was very good today and I’m really happy I made a strong comeback after that only bogey on the first hole. I know I have a chance tomorrow but I must not be too carried away.
