Grace Park

GRACE PARK: This is my 7th week in a row. And maybe I am tired because last week was such a big one that after everything was over Sunday and travel on Monday I am a little bit -- I don't know where I am.

GRACE PARK: No, I think -- I mean, I never tried to feel any pressure from anything outside other than myself. But I mean, if anything, I think I gained confidence out of this knowing that I didn't play well last year.

GRACE PARK: Well, I started early and I was wasn't quite up when I began. But it seems really tough to me - narrow; the greens are very small, tricky. I can't read the breaks very well. Hopefully I will get it by tomorrow.

GRACE PARK: Yes.

GRACE PARK: Yeah, I mean, it wasn't -- after I hit that shot, my swing just got really good. That swing, in particular, felt really good. After that shot I started making really good swings near the pin, at the pin, close and closer and that is how I started getting more and more confidence about my swing. I hit it pretty well but I had been struggling with my swing for a while and I am such a feel-player that when the feel is gone, I am gone.

GRACE PARK: To me it has been a struggle; a lot of frustration; somewhat of a disappointment, disappointment in myself, I guess, for not playing up to what I was hoping for. Shooting scores -- some of the scores I have not shot in four, five years even on the LPGA Tour; playing as an amateur I didn't play that bad.

GRACE PARK: I think so because I have heard some players say that they don't even remember how they played the last few holes down the stretch. But, for some reason, I was very, very relaxed. Never at one point did I think I was going to lose (inaudible). I knew Juli was there, but I still -- I was very positive. I think that is what helped me.

GRACE PARK: Colin is great. He works very hard. More than anything, we have fun out there. We joke around a lot and you will see us making fun of each other. Other than being serious for five hours on the golf course, you know, we get serious when we have to, but after we have worked out and taken care of business, then we are good friends. He started July last year during the Futures tour.

GRACE PARK: Ball striking improved dramatically over that one week period.

GRACE PARK: I have been just practicing and practicing and hoped to have four days of okay or good or -- either okay ball striking, but I hit it well for about a day and it disappeared and would go away. It never lasted a whole week. When you don't hit balls well, you don't make birdies and you don't get any chances.

GRACE PARK: Maybe. I think it is a little bit of everything. I haven't dealt with that many media before and that is something very new. I got a lot of phone calls from friends and family the night on Sunday, travel all day on Monday and didn't sleep well Sunday. I think after celebrating, that is why I am tired.
