It feels fantastic to win. It's one of my bests. I have been struggling with my putting, but my long game has been really good

It's not easy. It's a full-time job taking care of myself, so I didn't really pay much attention to what she was doing.

But, you know, today was just her day. She won the tournament, and she deserved it. She played a really good round today. So, I guess I'm just going to try to be happy with second place.
