Obviously in Michelle's case, she didn't get off to the start she wanted, ... I saw Maria in front was making some mistakes, it was one of those days where you just really had to survive.
This course is long for me to start with, and you put some wind and some firm greens, it made it really tough for me to get it close. It's an honor simply to come here. This is a great experience for me.
Honestly, I don't feel like I'm here to prove anything. I'm here to play golf. I know where I'm at on the money list. You know where I'm at. I'm here to reach my own goals, play my own game. I don't look at it that way. I see it as an opportunity for me.
It's a very interesting concept. It's totally something everybody is talking about. Hopefully, something good will happen.
I'm just looking forward to two years, ... We're going to get that cup back.
This is a tough golf course. You really have to strike it well.
I don't really look at how many shots I'm ahead or behind tomorrow,
She's got talent. She can really hit the ball. She's got a great head on her shoulders. She's really strong and her attitude is really something great.
I just hope I make my tee time. It seems like there's a lot to do. I have to take out the trash and get the phone and all that, and all of a sudden I have to rush to the course, which is what happened this morning.
It's very important, ... And why is it important? Because that motivates me, and that pushes me. If I can visualize something, then it is easier for me to work there. But if I just said, 'Hey, I want to be a better player,' well, what does that mean? I need to see things. Goals are things I can understand, I can touch.
I thought I played well today. I didn't score as well, but I had a lot of chances and am very happy with my game.
I just try to mind my own game, hit one shot at a time and kind of stay in the present. I felt she played pretty good today. it was quite some good golf I thought in the group, very consistent throughout.
The way I look at it is I have to play my own game. I can't focus on any particular player because there's too much to do on my own. I have enough on my plate.
It's crazy, really. It's been a very long day and I'm happy to be done. For these fans to stay around here is amazing.
