[Thankfully, the French pair, after two days of using borrowed sets, were reunited with the missing implements yesterday.] It was very tough for them, ... But I've told them that it is going to be one of the best weeks of their careers and to go out and just try and enjoy it.

There is going to be huge pressure on Michelle. But she's coped with everything so far and she's got a huge amount of talent. I think she will be great for women's golf.

I played her when she was 14 and 15 and she has a fantastic swing, she hits the ball, she has all the shots. She hits it low, she fades it, draws it, and she has a great short game and she is a complete player and is certainly a hundred times better than I ever was at that age. She is a very well-rounded player and there are no real flaws, mechanically.

There are still a few tournaments to go so I've still got a chance. A victory is all that is missing from the season.

I've played with Michelle a few times and it's amazing that she is such a great player at such a young age. It's going to be good for women's golf, but she is also going to have to cope with lots of pressure.

Neither of us was doing very well so we decided to pay for $10 a birdie.
