Lexi Thompson and Wyndham Clark speak after Round 3 of the Grant Thornton Invitational — the alternate shot day where, as Wyndham puts it, “team chemistry is most important.”

They talk about staying calm after early mishaps, why alternate shot is the most stressful format of the week, and what they need heading into the final round a couple shots back: two balls in play, more putts dropping, and a chance late on Sunday.

Best moment? Wyndham admits he put Lexi in trouble near a tree/bush on a par 5… and Lexi pulled off an incredible recovery to save the hole. They also share some off-course fun, including whether they’re heading to the Darius Rucker / OAR concert.
