HSBC WOMEN'S WORLD MATCH PLAY CHAMPIONSHIP


July 19, 2007


Reilley Rankin


NEW ROCHELLE, NEW YORK

Q. Reilley, I know you were down by two at one point, or three, can you talk about coming back from that deficit and winning by two?
REILLEY RANKIN: Yeah, I won 3 & 2. The first hole -- it started on the first hole, I hit it probably ten feet and she hit it 30 or 40 feet and made it. It was a great match and I just hung in there.

Q. That was the turning point?
REILLEY RANKIN: Yeah, I just hung in there. I knew it wasn't over. I knew match play is match play.

Q. Do you prefer to play like this, kind of a back and forth thing where you know what you have to do, rather than just go shoot a number?
REILLEY RANKIN: Yeah, it's fun. It's a lot of fun to do it, having a nice -- something different in the middle of the year. It's fun. You're never out of it. It's one match at a time, so rather than a tournament of four days of pacing yourself -- but I learned a lot about even tournament golf today.
Just, you know, when you're in match play, you're so -- I don't know, I think it's easier to be in the present. I think we made eight or nine birdies on the first seven holes between the two of us, but a lot of them were on the same holes. I just kept grinding.

Q. It worked out?
REILLEY RANKIN: It worked out.

Q. Have you allowed yourself to look ahead to tomorrow? Have you looked ahead at the bracket?
REILLEY RANKIN: I think I'm playing Carin Koch.

Q. Game plan for tomorrow or is it too early?
REILLEY RANKIN: Same thing.

Q. Stay in the moment?
REILLEY RANKIN: Yeah, you really have to focus, whatever situation you're in out there and go from there.
