Thoughts on the Course – The course played rather short in the practice round, however with the tee’s having been taken, it looks very challenging now.

The Opening Ceremony – As I’m a first year student, and this is my first tournament of this kind, I found the ceremony exciting, it set the tone for good things to come.

How will team USA fair? – We are here to win!
