I'm very proud of the way I played and I played four solid rounds of golf,
In a situation like that, you have to focus on the things you can control. We just kept on grinding.
I'm happy to come out and be able to read some greens. Last week, I couldn't see a single thing. I would tell my caddie, 'I think it's left edge,' and he would say, 'No, I think it's on the right.' I really didn't know what to do. Here, I have a good feel, and it's nice to be back on the right track again.
I'm happy to be back in Ohio. This state has been very good to me. And my first impression is the course is a good one. You really can hit the ball well here, I think.
I'm happy to be back. I have great memories from this place. I won the championship twice, and last year's was obviously a great way. I remember playing really well and it was one of those weeks where everything went my way.
I'm happy with my day. I made a lot of birdies and I made an eagle. I did make a few mistakes.
It was not a very good day for me. I didn't play well at all. I just want to forget about this day as quickly as possible.
I walked up to the 14th hole and I said to Terry (McNamara, her caddie), this is one of those putts where I have local knowledge, ... I've been there before. If I would have just seen that putt for the first time, I wouldn't have played as much break.
I've got to prove to Catrin (Nilsmark) that I'm playing well, so maybe she'll put me out there in the afternoon. I was a little worried after the front nine this morning. I thought I might be sleeping late tomorrow morning.
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.
I've got three to go and I'm tied for the lead,
Not a good day at all. I made zero putts. And I thought I'd finally got these Evian greens figured out.

It's very tough. I'm frozen and soaked. The ball doesn't fly as far. It's tough to keep the grips dry and stay warm. This is probably as tough as it gets. And then we have hail.
