The Mizuno Classic has been good to me, ... This is the first time I've had no bogeys in a 54-hole round and the first time with no 3-putts so I was very consistent and solid.
You still are playing the same holes, it's just a different order.
This is a tough golf course. You really have to strike it well.
This is a tough golf course. I thought the pins were tough. We had some wind, not a lot but just enough when it comes to club selection.
This is a solid group. There's a lot more younger players coming up, and they've got strong games and they're making a lot of noise.
The spectators have been fantastic. It has been a really first-class event and I'm happy here.
I have had two weeks off and I'm rested,
I don't have sympathy for her. She's here, she's playing good golf and she's enjoying it.
I don't know what to say about this round, ... I thought I played pretty good today. It just didn't go my way at all.
My front 9 was not very pretty. I hit some great iron shots, but my tee shots were not that great.
I come from a little town just like she does, ... So for her to travel all the way from Sweden and live your dream, when I saw that headline, I said, 'That's what I want to do.'
I came to No. 16 knowing I had three holes, and I had to do something,
I am happier on the course. I am happier off the course. Obviously that's a good balance to have.
I am flattered and honored to be chosen by so many different editors.
