BASRA, IRAQ - OCTOBER 18: People gather around a Land Rover as it arrives at the village Al Houta on October 18 2008 near Basra, Iraq. The trip by the 51 Sqn Royal Air Force Regiment Force Protection Wing was part of a 'key leader engagement' (KLE) visit to the village close to the Basra Airbase to recruit local labour and engage with the village shiek. Visits of this type are seen as key in efforts to continue winning the support of the local Iraqi population. Although improved security in the region has brought some benefits such as improved trade and commerce, much of the infrastructure remains in a poor state of repair.

At a golf tournament, people will always look at the pairing sheets, find Amy Alcott or Annika Sorenstam or Nancy Lopez or Lorena Ochoa, and say, `Well, my day is set,' ... This horse has the same flair. She's got a lot of Babe (Didrikson) Zaharias in her, a lot of Ben Hogan. 
I was just a little (nervous) when I found out I was playing with Kelli Kuehne, but I'm not going to win any money so I thought I'd just go out there and have fun ... The two bogeys I had were three-putts, but I got them back with two birdies. I'm so grateful to be out here playing with Annika (Sorenstam), Lorena (Ochoa) and all the stars like that. It's an honour.
Let's pretend as if we had a (Canadian) Lorena Ochoa right now ... I think we would be buzzing. I think that would definitely inspire us, absolutely.
Nerves come into it, I don't care who you are, and these greens are unbelievable. Tiger was telling me that they're actually 3 feet slower than what they played for the Open. It was just such a hoot to play with him ... He showed me things I never even thought about. Like when he walks into a sand trap, he feels with his feet. It was just so neat. it really was.
It was fun ... This was totally cool. I've caddied before many times. For me to be out here and to be able to do it again, it's always fun. John's a good guy. It was a fun day for me.
Hey, I hear you're looking for a caddie. I'm Tiger Woods e_SEnD pleased to meet you.
That is a very strong word. I wouldn't want to use it ... But I do think it is a little drastic.
