It just meant a lot because it's something I've always wanted to do. I've always wanted to be a Senior National Champ. I was Junior National Champ in 2002, so now to be the senior champ is great.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I began playing in the senior circuit when I was 15 and won the world senior amateur title the same year.
To be involved in a senior tournament back in the States is very satisfying.
It meant a lot because it was my first time to compete as a senior at that meet, which was kind of weird because I've done senior all year, but I didn't get to compete last year because of my elbow.
Growing up, I always dreamed of winning a major championship.
I was very hungry to compete internationally when I was 10 years old, and I was good enough to compete, so that part never made me afraid or worried at all. When I was at my peak, around 12 and 13, I won my junior national and senior national titles back to back.
I am very proud of what I have done since I turned professional. It's been great to become the first teenager to win three times, to have played in some Majors and the Masters, and to have twice broken into the world's top 50 and stayed there for a bit of time.
I think it's great the opportunity is given to all of us really to come out and play major championships after the real major championships have gone beyond us.
I want to leave a great legacy behind me and continue to win major championships.
I won the city scoring championship as a senior.
I just love playing in major championships.
