ZOE ANTOINETTE CAMPOS: Yeah, I mean, playing last two years I was here I think this course is really -- it requires a lot of strategy and you have to know where to hit the ball; you have to know where to miss.

ZOE ANTOINETTE CAMPOS: I would say my putting has definitely improved. I think I was a really aggressive putter coming in. But now I think I've really worked on my speed and that's really helped me make a lot of putts.
And then just I think being on the road a lot has just really helped, and just continuing like to play and get that more experience.

ZOE ANTOINETTE CAMPOS: I mean, I think it's definitely like amplified women in sports. I think that's really important for us.
I think we haven't really gotten much attention before, and the inaugural one really amplified that. Just having it continue has really made that really important.
