CARLSBAD, CALIFORNIA
Q.  Fantastic tournament again this week. I know it's been well documented that you were a bit fed up with your game at the end of last year. Two wins this year. What turned it around for you?
ANNA NORDQVIST: I think just having positive people around me. That's been really helping me keep me in a good mood and pushing me when I wanted to give up.
But I been working extremely hard this off‑season, so I can't believe it. I'm still almost shaking right now standing here with another win.
Q. You've had a change of coach. What kind of things have you been working on? Has he been a positive influence?
ANNA NORDQVIST: Yeah, I've been working with Jorge Parada since the end of January. We started a little bit on short game. He's a really positive person and really motivated me in practice.
Been working a little bit on lagging a little bit different in the swing, and I feel like I can go after it a little bit more without hitting them left.
Q. Going into the Kraft next week, what does this win do for your confidence for that?
ANNA NORDQVIST: I mean, makes me believe a lot more in myself. I love Palm Springs. My caddie is from there, so I know he loves it there, too. I couldn't come to the first major of the year in a better position.
Q. What's it feel like, the importance of getting this thing?
ANNA NORDQVIST: Well, I was two shots behind and really had nothing to lose today. Didn't feel very good this morning.
But I wanted to at least give myself a chance. Made a good par putt on 7 to ‑‑ or on 6 to keep me in it. Made a couple really good birdies then the turn.
I'm still shaking and still can't believe this happened. Obviously very happy.
Q. To win going into a major week though, the importance of that, unbelievable amount of confidence, right?
ANNA NORDQVIST: Absolutely. I'm so excited to see what I've been working on is starting to pay off. Can't waiting to go to Palm Springs. It's one of my favorite stops on tour.
