I won the 2007 U.S. Open and 2009 Masters in my late 30s, largely because of my confident driving.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I also held several masters running titles.
Winning the 2007 Master's was a dream fulfilled; culminating on Easter Sunday with my family was very special. You couldn't write it up any better.
I was driven when I was younger. Driven at West Point where it was much more competitive in that women were competing with men on many levels, and I was driven in the military and at Harvard, both competitive environments.
I've been fortunate enough that in every form of motor sports in which I've competed, we've won.
The most satisfying accomplishment for me was winning the British Open in 1996. But the most rewarding times were the times on the mini tours.
The years I raced in were fantastic. There was so much change in the cars. We went from treaded tyres to no wings right through to slicks to enormous wings.
I was the kid who never won the races... I wasn't on the list of the high-achieving.
I went seven years between 2002 and 2009 without winning. Then I did win in '09.
I won my first medal when I was nine years old. It was at the Boston Open.
The experience at the Masters was two years ago, and I am eager to win again this year so I can return to Augusta National in 2016.
