KPMG WOMEN'S PGA CHAMPIONSHIPJuly 2, 2017Brooke HendersonOlympia Fields, Illinois Q. Good to see you smiling. You played great and you did just about everything you could out there. It's so hard to follow up a major championship and defend it. How proud are you of yourself and this whole week? BROOKE HENDERSON: Yeah, you know, I played great all week. Came so close, and it really came down to those last two holes birdieing to make it look really close. I would have liked to make one or two more putts on the back nine, but like you said, it was a great week for me. There was a little bit more pressure coming into this week, and knowing that I won last year, I really wanted to do it again. I gave myself the best opportunity to do that, and unfortunately I just came up a little bit short. And Danielle played great all week, so congratulations to her. Q. What will you take away from this, because you seem so relaxed right now. BROOKE HENDERSON: Yeah, I think I just know that I played the best that I could, and it just wasn't good enough this week. It's such a big learning experience, coming out here, and finishing second after I won last year. This tournament has been really good to me, T-5 two years ago, a win, and a second. So maybe next year I can hold that trophy again. Q. I know you're still 19, but you have to feel like more of a veteran player out here. How do you think that that's going to change your approach to the game and to winning and what's in store for you? BROOKE HENDERSON: Yeah, I feel so much more relaxed in contention. You know, coming up those final holes, I was chasing birdies and felt like I could get them, which was a little different from a few years ago where I was very nervous and trying to make pars and maybe the odd birdie coming in. But now I really feel like I can trust my game, and it's good enough to make birdies down the stretch, which I did today. FastScripts Transcript by ASAP Sports   |
