Paula Creamer Hit Quotations

I have definitely gotten longer. I have new muscles and my golf swing has changed, so once in a while I can hit one pretty far out there. But it's learning how to use those muscles on a consistent basis.

I don't know about overshadowing. She just has raised the bar for women's golf and she's made it a better sport right now. She's brought the more physical aspects into the game, being longer and stronger. The main thing is she is just stronger and can hit it further than anybody out here right now and that is a huge advantage. She has just raised it for so many players.

There is a huge difference, especially in the rough. The ball either sits up or sits down and have to hit a 58-degree wedge out. It is just one of those things. Like Natalie said, it is a great golf course and a very good test of golf. You are going to have to hit demanding shots out there. You can't just hit it anywhere and you have to be on your A game.

Actually, today was probably the worst I hit the ball off the tee for sure. I missed a lot of fairways on the front nine, but I tried to give myself chances and I tried to stay patient out there. I feel good with a seven-shot lead, that is nice, but there is a lot of golf to be played.

I knew if I was tough I could gain some positions on the leader board, ... I gave myself so many chances out there. It's unbelievable that I was 10-under. I couldn't putt. I couldn't make anything. I hit so many great shots but could never capitalize on it with my putting.

I hit the ball the same as I did yesterday. I just made some putts early on.

I didn't hit a lot of fairways. And there were times when I didn't feel as if I was on a golf course out there.

That just totally helped our momentum, it helped her, she did a great job on the next hole. The first couple of holes were a little shaky out there for us, Annika hit some really good shots but I missed a couple of putts early on.
