What They're Saying
Hyo Joo Kim (via The Guardian): "Last week was really good. I got to play a really firm, links-style course, so it was a great way to prepare for this event. I will definitely consider doing it again."
Inbee Park (via Sky Sports): "It's the time of year where I'm not really hitting it great, but I am just trying to play through it. The true Grand Slam would be winning the British Open and that is my main goal. But I come into this week with no expectations."
