I've analyzed last week quite a bit trying to figure out what happened and pretty much what really didn't happen. I just came to the conclusion that I tried, but things just didn't add up. I was pretty happy with the way I hit the ball and pretty happy the way I was putting. I just wasn't happy with where I ended up.
I don't think you ever get used to it. This is a great week for her and I hope she enjoys it.
I have had two weeks off and I'm rested,
It's obviously very satisfying. It's a big week for many reasons.
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.
It wasn't that bad, but I made a few mistakes out there. It's been a hectic week as tournament host, but now it's all over and when I woke up this morning I thought now I'm inside the ropes and nobody's chasing me.
It was good to recharge the batteries, but three weeks went by very quickly. I think a four-day tournament is really what it's all about. If you think about all the big tournaments that we play, all the majors, it's more of a true test - a four-day tournament.
Three-under after two weeks of really no golf, I can't complain,
This is one of greatest things I've done in my career, ... I felt pressure all week but I tried to stay aggressive. Obviously I feel great.
This is a big week for all of us, and a lot is at stake. I have my goals set way back, and now I'm here and I'm ready to play.
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.
I really don't know what to say. One week you're second, the next week you're not on. She didn't even play last week (because there wasn't a scheduled tournament). She didn't even play and she lost her spot. That's tough.
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.
We don't voice our opinions the way they do. Hopefully, we can let our clubs do the talking.
