Q. What a fantastic day out there, what a way to end the Women’s Scottish Open, how do you feel after the final round?
CHARLEY HULL: I actually haven’t played well at The Scottish Open before. Definitely nice to be able to kind of finish on a high. The wind was a lot calmer today, so made it a little bit more gettable.
I think I played really aggressive — well, I tried to stay pretty aggressive, and that’s been the mindset feeding off last week. So yeah, just kept it to that and definitely nice to cap this week on a high and hopefully good momentum going into next week.
Q. Reminded me of the final round at ANA where you came back there. How comfortable were you feeling and when did the momentum start kicking in for you?
CHARLEY HULL: I actually hit the ball really well on the first day and I couldn’t really hole anything, and today I holed a few good putts. Made a few good up-and-down. I had two really good looks for eagle and one I converted and one I didn’t. But all in all, you know, I played solid and I think all you can do is just trust your game and I feel like a lot of good things are there.
So you know, I was just trusting it all day like I thought on the last day of the Olympics, and what’s meant to be is going to be. So yeah, I think with that mindset, it definitely putts a lot less pressure on it and I’m just out there playing golf and not trying to do — like trying to get extra out of something that I can’t control.
Q. Last two rounds, bogey-free, that’s got to help your confidence heading into the major.
CHARLEY HULL: I think overall, having a good finish here, that gives me good momentum heading into next week. This was a great golf course leading up to Carnoustie. This is a true links and we know what Carnoustie is like. I’m super excited for next week and learn from this week and take the positives and work on the things that I feel like needs to be worked on and have fun out there and see what happens.
