賽後訪問Pettersen和Kerr談到比賽場地的事
首先是Pettersen的部分

Q. You said change your mindset, do you mean be more aggressive early
possibly in a tournament?
妳提到要改變自己心態的部分，請問妳是指盡可能地在比賽的起初就打得更具侵略性嗎?

SUZANN PETTERSEN: Like I said, this used to be a preparation to the U.S.
Open. I still think somehow for the first couple of days it still is. You
don't really realize it until the weekend is here and you start feeling the
heartbeat a little bit. It's fine, I didn't play great in the first couple
of days. Like I said, I missed a lot of putts, and disappointed to be that
far behind Yani, not really giving her anything to get a heartbeat going.
But she has played phenomenal this week.
如我所說，這場比賽通常是來準備美國公開賽。我仍然覺得頭幾天就是如此。妳並不意
識到如此，直到周末到來，妳開始覺得心跳加速。這ok，我並沒有在前幾天打出好球。
如我所講的，我錯失了很多推桿，令人失望地，離雅妮如此遙遠，並沒有真的給她任何
壓力。她這禮拜的表現驚人。

Q. What needs to happen to make this feel more like a Major to you?
對妳來說，怎麼樣才會讓(這場比賽)更像是大賽呢?

SUZANN PETTERSEN: Quite honestly I think I said it earlier in the week, play
a different golf course. This is a phenomenal golf course. You got to be
accurate, and they are small greens. But for me this is not a Major golf
course. That's my personal opinion, and I might have people disagreeing with
me. Since you asked me I want to answer quite honestly.
老實說，如我早先在這禮拜初所講，換個不同的高爾夫球場吧。這是個驚人的球場，妳
必須打得準確，而且果嶺狹小。但對我來說，這不是個大賽的場地。這是我個人意見，
也許有些人會不同意我的看法。但既然妳問了我，那我就誠實以對。


在隨後Kerr的訪問，提到了這個問題

Q. Susan Pettersen made a comment about this golf course that she didn't
think it was a Major championship golf course; what are your thoughts on this
place?
Pettersen剛才對這個球場做了評論: 她不認為這是個大賽場地。妳是怎麼想的呢?

CRISTIE KERR: I love this golf course, you know. It's hard to say.
Everybody is going to say something different. I love this course. I
always have. I always felt like it was a good test of golf. You know, you
have to hit it straight. The rough is bad. I hit it a lot more in the rough
this year than I did last year and I paid for it. And the greens are small
and very fast.
我愛這個場地，妳知道的。這很難論定。每個人都有不同的意見。我愛這裡，我一直都
愛。我一直都覺得這裡是試煉的好場地。妳知道的，妳必須擊球方向正確，打到長草區
就慘了。我今年比去年多打了一些落到長草區的球，也付出了代價。而且果嶺狹小，球
滾動也很快。

So, you know, you have to be playing well. I didn't hit it well but I played
well for four days and was 8-under. That's usually kind of what contends if
there is not somebody that steps away.
所以妳知道的，妳必須打得很好。我並沒有打得好，但整體來說這四天還不錯，拿到低
標準桿八桿的成績。這通常是個奪冠的成績......如果不是某人遙遙領先的話。

Obviously, Yani is going to win by a bunch, and she was right there with us,
again, like last year, you know, I would have been right there, even not
having my A ball striking game.

這段和場地無關就不翻了
