Annika Sorenstam Good Quotations

Yes, I do fancy our chances. But we won't have it easy because there are a lot of good teams, especially Japan and the United States.

We did not get off to a good start at all. We were really struggling. We kept telling ourselves, 'Let's keep fighting. We can do this.' We started making some birdies on the back nine and had an incredible finish.

She took a drop from one of those (electric cart) tracks and I just told her that she didn't mark her ball when she picked it up, ... So I told her for future reference to always mark the golf ball. She had a good drop, but you need to know where to put the ball.

Obviously I'm very happy with my position. It was good steady golf, hitting a lot of fairways and greens and I'm putting very well.

Obviously I'm in a position that I want to be. I like this golf course. I had a good (round) last year on Sunday. I'm going to keep that in my mind.

Obviously I am very happy about my round today. Yesterday I was a little frustrated. I thought I hit the ball really well and I had a lot of opportunities. Today I do not feel like I left that many out there. I feel good about how I put my score together. I feel I hit the ball well and had a lot of opportunities and converted most of them.

Obviously, endurance is going to play a role, there's no doubt about it. It's a hilly course and you've got to be in good shape, especially if the temperatures are up there. If we get the humidity, it could be quite tough. Having said that, I'm glad that I've been working out the last few years.

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.

I am happier on the course. I am happier off the course. Obviously that's a good balance to have.

I am in good position and I am looking forward to the weekend. Hopefully I can continue to hit it the way I have and just make a few more putts. Then I'll be happy.

I felt good coming into the round. I was hitting the ball really well. I didn't really get off to the start I had in mind. I had difficulty scoring and then on the back nine, the wind picked up and it got really difficult.

I finished good down the stretch today, as I did yesterday. (On No. 18), I had to get it up and hope it landed softly. I've been working a lot on my bunker shots this winter, so I feel good about it. ... It would have been really hard if I were in the rough. I was glad I was in the bunker.

I finished good down the stretch today as I did Thursday. I must say I played well today, I couldn't really get it going at all. I had three three-putts, but it's funny because I feel like I'm putting well.

I feel like I hit the ball pretty well, actually, ... I feel like I left a few strokes out there, but I drove (the ball) well, hit good iron shots, putted well (and) just felt connected.

I don't want somebody to ask, 'How many tournaments did Annika Sorenstam win? I would rather they say she was a great athlete, she loved sportsmanship and she loved what she did. If they know my name, then they will know I played good golf.

It is harder for us to win in America. But we have a good team, a good spirit and I think we have a great chance.

I think everybody is saying the same thing. I'm very impressed, me personally. I think they've done a good job in every way.

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.

For me, it's important to play good at the end of the year,

It's only Thursday; I have three more days. I'm looking forward to it. I still feel good about my game. Today it was almost. It was very, very close, but not really it. And right now, I don't really know what I've got to do to make it a great one, maybe make a few putts, maybe hit a few drives.

It's always nice to get off to a good start and get some momentum for the week. It's no fun getting off to a rotten start. You have to fight back all the way, and you don't feel like you can make any mistakes.

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.

I'm happy to come out and be able to read some greens. Last week, I couldn't see a single thing. I would tell my caddie, 'I think it's left edge,' and he would say, 'No, I think it's on the right.' I really didn't know what to do. Here, I have a good feel, and it's nice to be back on the right track again.

I'm happy to be back in Ohio. This state has been very good to me. And my first impression is the course is a good one. You really can hit the ball well here, I think.

I'm competitive and yeah, I was very disappointed in the way I played on Sunday. I played really good for three days and I made a few mistakes down the stretch. Of course I was disappointed in myself and wished things would have been a little different. This gives me a little bit more fire and maybe that's what I need for the rest of the season.

I'm as ready as I can be. I'm swinging really well, putting well. I'm looking forward to this week. I'm ready. It's now or never. We'll see how it goes. I feel good about it. We'll see what happens.

I hit a lot of fairways and a lot of greens and put myself in good position to make birdies out there.
