Q. Nice solid 65 heading into the weekend, how are you feeling?

TAYLOR MOORE: Good. Yeah, I got in a nice rhythm early today, so that was good. Just trying to keep hitting fairways and greens. Yeah, pretty solid.

Q. On 16, I haven't seen the clip but I heard you hit a backwards shot.

TAYLOR MOORE: On 16?

Q. Yeah, 16.

TAYLOR MOORE: Yeah, it was interesting. I thought I hit a pretty good iron shot and it got caught up there on the slope there and didn't feed back toward the pin. Yeah, I was trying to figure out the best way to give myself the twoputt and get it in for par. Yeah, I had to play backwards up the slope there. I haven't seen it either so I'm kind of interested to go see what it looks like.

Q. How did you come across that decision of how to approach that shot? Were you talking it through with your caddie? Have you practiced that shot before?

TAYLOR MOORE: Well, if I just tapped it down the hill it was going to go way to the right and work away from the hole. Then as I was looking over to my right I could see if I could use the slope over there, I could actually work toward it. So that's what I ended up doing, ended up getting it done in two.

Q. When's the last time you've taken that line in competition?

TAYLOR MOORE: Backwards? Yeah, it's been a minute. I don't know, you can definitely do it out here though with some of these slopes. I've had a few upandovers the last few days so it's  yeah, anywhere you get kind of big green complexes like this with different tiers, you might have a few of those.

Q. Down to the final three weeks, how would you assess your season so far?

TAYLOR MOORE: Yeah, up and down. Missed some time in the middle of the year with an injury, which is kind of a bummer considering we've gone from 125 to 100 cards full time. Just sucks to miss time sitting at home, right?

Yeah, I was like my game's in a good spot, I've played some good rounds this fall, just kind of waiting to put four rounds together again. It's been progressively nice the last few months so just excited to compete and be pain free honestly.

Q. Still a few rounds to play here this fall, but what would it mean to stay within that top-100?

TAYLOR MOORE: Yeah, it would be great. I think there's a lot of golf left and I still think my goal coming into the fall was to get as close to 51 as possible, right, and try to get in the Signature Events, a couple of those Signature Events start next year. We've still got a couple tournaments left to be able to do that.
