It's not like I invented the World Rankings. All I did was play golf.
If you grow up normal, you'll only be normal.
If I ever get bored with golf, I'm going to start over and play lefthanded.
I don’t like going to the mall. I'm not really like the other girls. I just like to go out on the golf course and play. Golf is fun and feels really good.
If you expect a bad lie for even one second, the gods will know it and give you a bad lie.
The best part about golf is when you hit the ball long. It feels really good.
I don't mind when I hit a ball in the woods. I think of it as an adventure. That's when golf really starts to get interesting.
The first time I grabbed a golf club, I knew that I'd do it for the rest of my life.
I'm proud that I played solidly throughout the whole round. There were a couple of holes where I didn't feel that comfortable, but I just survived on those holes and I came back.
It's still going to be my goal to be able to make the cut, to be able to compete in the PGA events and to one day play in the Masters.
It was just a combination of bad shots that turned out to be really bad, and just a lot of wasted strokes out there. It was not my day.
After the sixth I felt a little bit more confident and it's a good start for tomorrow.
I'm excited for this event. I didn't really realize it was my first major as a professional. That's really cool.
I have played in rain before. I have played in wind before. I have played in cold before, but not all put together. They were the hardest conditions I ever played in.
