I've never seen anything like it. The last time I saw crowds like this was the U.S. Open on a Sunday,
She's so close. It's just a matter of time when she is going to break through. The key really to winning your first is just you've really got to play your own game and trust yourself.
I finished with a birdie, so I think I'll leave this place with a smile, ... This was the first time I played here in the morning. The greens were a lot smoother and in great shape. It's too bad I had only four holes (to play Monday).
It's something that comes throughout the season, ... The first time I obviously wanted to be player of the year, then I said let's see if I can do it again. This year I was totally focused on majors, thinking if I won all four majors, I could become player of the year.
Yesterday, I couldn't feel comfortable over the putter, I thought the greens were very bumpy. Today, I had a tee time about an hour and 15 minutes earlier. The conditions were a lot better, less people walking around on the greens. I think that was important for me because I started to roll in some putts and I felt a lot better.
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.

Last time I played I had to go 36 holes in one day which was a bit much. But I love playing in 72-hole tournaments and look forward to this event before the third major.
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.
I really don't feel a lot of pressure to perform the way I have the last three years. I just feel good about my game. I just want to come out, have a good time and get a little better here and there.
This is kind of close to my home in Tahoe, so it's about time I came back, ... I am happy to be here and I look forward to playing this weekend.
The first time I saw (the 10 under) was on my sixth hole when I saw she was 10 under. I actually had to look twice. I thought she was on the 10th hole. What can I say, it was a fantastic round. This golf course is not easy.
We don't voice our opinions the way they do. Hopefully, we can let our clubs do the talking.
The spectators have been fantastic. It has been a really first-class event and I'm happy here.
