Sometimes you can't do a thing about it. You just have to try and keep on grinding and hope that things will turn around eventually.
It was just one of those days. I am happy with the way I am playing, I just couldn't get it together today. I'm just glad I made birdie on the last hole. Hopefully I can turn it around.
I've had four weeks off, so I'm happy to be here. I'm ready to come back and play some tournaments. I am excited to get going again. I normally don't have four weeks off in the summer, but it just turned out to be that this year. I played in Europe three weeks and needed a long break.
Just the scoring part, which is the biggest part. I mean, I'm working on everything and at least the last week I've been hitting it really well. I'm hoping that it's all turning around. I really am.
It's a big step for her to turn pro. I think she can handle it.
I wasn't expecting to make that one. But it rolled in and I said, 'you know what, it's turning around, I'm going to make some now,'
I wasn't expecting that. I said to my caddie, 'It's turning around. I'm going to make some now.
I was a little bit worried there, but the players just turned it around on the back nine and we got four solid points.
That was a pretty crucial eagle. And the momentum definitely turned there.
It's only Thursday; I have three more days. I'm looking forward to it. I still feel good about my game. Today it was almost. It was very, very close, but not really it. And right now, I don't really know what I've got to do to make it a great one, maybe make a few putts, maybe hit a few drives.
I've never seen anything like it. The last time I saw crowds like this was the U.S. Open on a Sunday,
It makes you hit every shot in the bag. For me, I come in with the mindset that I have to play well.
Last year was a blur with all I was going through (off the course) and sometimes I don't know how I managed to stay focused when I was inside the ropes,
Golf has been my savior, there's no doubt about that.
