It was on my hands to finish the tournament. I didn't need her to miss any putt, I just needed to make that one.

I was there, and as I told you days before, it's better for me being here playing and not winning than being in Colombia and winning.

I was never tired. My feet are killing me, though. Right when she made it, of course I would have liked to have gone extra holes, but those shoes were off.
