LPGA post-round interviews
Post-round interviews of Laura Davies, Natalie Gulbis, Laura Diaz, Annika Sorenstam, Paula Creamer, and Michelle Wie are here. A sample of some of the revealing questions:
Q. What made you feel terrible?
MICHELLE WIE: I feel really stupid saying this, but I ate too much. I ate too much, and going into the heat, walking just caused a little indigestion. It was pretty bad, and then, you know how when your stomach hurts everything else hurts, like your back, and then if it wasn’t for the siren, I think I might have quit, because every time I breathed in, and when I breathe out it felt like barf was coming out with it, too. Sorry for the picture. Either the break helped me a lot and the Back 9 felt really good.
Q. Are you going to watch what you eat?
MICHELLE WIE: Definitely. No more. I’m going to eat just a sandwich, and after I eat I should be hungry, not full. That’s my new rule of eating.
================================================================
Q. What did Butch tell you about your swing that you didn’t know?
NATALIE GULBIS: I never had a lesson before I went to Butch. I’m a field player. My father was always my instructor. I didn’t know anything about the swing.
Q. Do you see yourself as one of the rivals [to Annika] among the younger players?
NATALIE GULBIS: I think I’m getting closer with my game, but no, right now she’s still a better player.
================================================================
Q. What exactly was the injury [you have recovered from]?
LAURA DIAZ: I had four tears in my tendon and a torn ligament in my left ankle.
================================================================
Q. Annika, would you like to have a rivalry‑type deal again like maybe you had with Karrie and Se Ri Pak then?
ANNIKA SORENSTAM: No, I’m pretty happy how things are. No. I mean, I come out here and play my own game, and it’s very challenging for me to be out here. I’m very pleased the way things are, and I wouldn’t want to change it. Again, it is fun to play with someone, like today Natalie, she rolled in a putt on the last hole, and I wanted to make mine. I wanted to show her, hey, you might be younger, but I can putt too.
