I think (Creamer's) very excited to be part of the team. She has every right to be,
To finish birdie-birdie on this course -- two difficult holes -- was promising for tomorrow. Compared to yesterday, this was quite an improvement.
To come here with high expectations to defend a title is always tough, but I thought I played really well and I'm very happy about that. This is a great event to start out the season.
Golf has definitely been my savior during this period and I'm very proud of the way I have performed again this season.
Golf has been my savior, there's no doubt about that.
Well, it has been a long day, but I'm happy with my score. I thought I played some good golf today. And it seemed once I made a birdie, I kept going with it.
That was one of my worst swings of the week. Bad timing.
That was local knowledge. If I had never seen that putt before, I wouldn't have played enough break.
That was a pretty crucial eagle. And the momentum definitely turned there.

He played aggressive. It was great to see. I loved playing with these guys.
I am working as hard in the gym as ever, and I feel as strong as ever. Knock on wood, I haven't had any injuries. I have learned so much the last few years.
I am pretty happy. I think I left a few out there on my front, which was my back, ... Three-under is a good score. It's not great, but not a bad one.
I could not have asked for a better start to 2006 and I hope we'll be able to come back and defend our title next year.
