A lot of people think I am cold and have no feelings. But I do. I just try very hard to focus and not let my emotions take over on the golf course.

I love to crunch numbers. I look at how many fairways I hit, how many greens I hit. I plan my way around the golf course.

There are no shortcuts to success.

I push myself to be the best I can be. I don't worry about what other people are doing, and I don't think about things I can't control.

Ron Syriac, a golf writer and friend, was quoted as saying, "Annika is no longer a female golfer. She's a golfer." That's truly all I ever aspired to be.

I think it’s important for me to play well and set the tone.
