Q. Wow, three down through 12, and you come back to win a point for Europe. Can you talk me through those closing holes, what you said to yourself.

CAROLINE HEDWALL: Well, I was just trying to stay patient. Like, I didn't make any putts on the front and it was frustrating, for sure, and the wind was turning around. But somehow I just felt like it has to turn around at some point and it truly did, which I'm very happy for.
