Do you feel there is a lot of expectation on you to succeed?
I try not to think about that. I just try to go to the golf course and play my best, and try not to think about people expecting me to win. If you have too much pressure on you, you don’t play so well. You have to have pressure, but not that kind of pressure.
You are going to America to study.
Are you studying anything golf related while you are there?
Yes, I want to study something with relation to golf - so I will study business. I want to have something more than only golf.
Do you hope to learn something about the psychology of golf?
Yes, I like that. In America you can have two majors instead of one, so maybe I will study psychology also. I’ll have to see how it goes!
Do you hope that the competitive environment in
America will help to raise your game even further?
Yes I think so, because in the States you are going to practice more, and play maybe twice a week. So you are always playing, whereas in Spain you may have one tournament a month. So I am looking forward to playing a lot over there.
What has been your most memorable golf event to date?
I really enjoyed the World Championship. It was my best event ever. I was in South Africa with my two best friends. I think my other best one was the European Singles because it was the last one I won, and it is my most recent memory.
And you took part in the Weetabix Women’s British Open.
How was it to play in a Major?
It was a great experience. I went there with one goal and that was to make the cut. And then when I made the cut, I thought, what now? So I changed my mind and thought okay I just have to enjoy it. After I made the cut I played very badly on the last two days. But as I said - I told myself that I just had to enjoy the experience.
How did you find links golf?
Was that your first experience of it?
No I am very used to it. First of all, before winning the two British, I hated links golf but I think now I know how to play it.
