Quick Quotes


Q. Annie, great playing this week. What are some of your overall takeaways from the third U.S. Adaptive Open?

ANNIE HAYES: I just thought it was great that we got a lot of new players in with the qualifiers. Seems like it was a much younger field. They did a great job with the course and it was in great shape.

I like the course a lot better for my game, so that was great for me. Pinehurst was pretty hard for me. Shooting 7-wood in from 100 yards, can't really land it on those greens.

Here I didn't really have that issue, so I scored quite a bit better.

Q. Yeah, and you're seated player impairment category for the female side. What does that honor mean to you?

ANNIE HAYES: It's wonderful. You know, I think it's great, but I wish I had some competition. Golf is such a great sport for just people in wheelchairs, so you can golf independently, with able-bodied people, you can get pretty respectable at it.

So I encourage any women out there to pick it up and play and give me some competition next time. So that would be wonderful.
