Q. Nelly, I know you just signed your scorecard. Just reflect on the whole week. You go from the champion's dinner and then you have all the commitments you do. You have to prepare for a golf course that rains, there is so much going on. Just your first thoughts on this week?

NELLY KORDA: Yeah, start of the week was great. Getting to celebrate with the past champions, having Chef Keller cook an amazing dinner was a dream come true. Unfortunately I flew in from LA on Monday so I didn't really get to see the golf course until Tuesday and that was a pro-am.

So I wish if I could do anything again I wish I prepared a little bit more, got a few more rounds and reps under my belt.

But it's been a grind of a week. Walking onto 8 tee on Friday I was 7-over, so I'm proud of my fight. Obviously I have a lot to work on. Last year was last year. Such an amazing year but it's in the past. It's not going to help me with my future.

If anything it's just going to put more pressure on myself. I have to leave it in the past and continue working hard and moving forward.

Q. So speaking of moving forward, what are you excited about coming up? Is there a tournament coming up? You have anything in the off week?

NELLY KORDA: I have my junior event next week at my home course. That's something I'm looking forward to. And then going back to New York at Mizuho, defending there.

I just really like being in the city. It's something different. We don't get to do that very often.

I think the rest of the year, looking at my schedule I'm definitely playing a little bit more if I'm healthy in the States. So I'm just excited to play all the events that I haven't gotten to. Playing ShopRite this year, playing in Hawai'i. So getting to travel to amazing places doing what I love so I have to be grateful for that.
