airplane although attend business cities enjoy golf life seat sitting thinking time various
Sitting on the airplane seat today, I was thinking - I have been in different cities every week. Most of the time, it's because of golf tournaments. But occasionally, I also attend various events. All of a sudden, I feel like I am a business woman. Although sometimes I feel tired, I do enjoy this kind of life.
mistake thinking long
You learn from your mistakes, and I think it's a good thing as long as you learn something.
lonely golf thinking
You know golf is very lonely. When I'm in the States, I feel like if I just think about Taiwan, my friends, my fans, I won't feel like I'm alone.
golf thinking get-better
With Tiger Woods, you know everyone is watching. But I think interest in women's golf is getting better too.
rip thinking worry
When I'm out there, I don't think about anything. I just grip it and rip it. I don't like to worry about technique.
thinking play good-things
When you play good, everything is good, but when you dont play so good, everything is bad. Even when you think there are good things, they still say bad things.
winning thinking issues
Although I have won many times now, each time when I have a lead, I start to think about winning. It's very difficult not to think about winning. Every time, there are new challenges. Every time, there are new issues to overcome.
tournament watched
The very first tournament I watched is the U.S. Open when I was 13. And that was the year Juli Inkster won.
When I was 13 my dream was to play the U.S. Open. Now it's to win it.
asked competition dad played shot teach tournament
When I was 7, my dad asked his friend to teach me. I played my first tournament competition when I was 8. I remember I shot around 125.
hit whether
So it must be my mental, because sometimes when I start on the tee, I still worry about whether my ball is going to hit right or left.
I'm just going to have fun. Maybe that will be the most important thing to do.
I started second-guessing myself and was always questioning myself. I have really learned a lot.
cameras felt girl red remembered scene seeing special stars suddenly tv voices walking
Walking down the red carpet, suddenly I felt very special and different. All the flashlights from cameras and requesting voices from the media, the scene, it was just like what I remembered seeing on TV or a movie when I was a little girl - the scene only when movie stars appeared.
