:00:55. > :01:01.And that settles it. Then he is, the greatest golfer of the game has ever

:01:11. > :01:18.
:01:18. > :01:21.have been on, is amazing. This 483. -- for a three. Did you enjoy that?
:01:21. > :01:26.For any golfer who knows anything about golf and the history, this is
:01:26. > :01:30.the place you want to come and play. The champion golfer for the year and
:01:30. > :01:40.the women -- winner of the gold medal with a score of 282, John
:01:40. > :01:46.
:01:46. > :01:52.Daly. Yes. There it is. That is a 74 Tiger Woods. He is a champion, and
:01:52. > :01:56.well-deserved. How fitting that it should be the women's world number
:01:56. > :02:00.one going down in history as the first winner of a women's
:02:00. > :02:07.professional event on this course. If a win this week, it will be so
:02:07. > :02:11.special, especially at St Andrews, this historic golf course. There
:02:11. > :02:15.really is nowhere else like it in golf. St Andrews, the home of the
:02:15. > :02:21.sport, where many of the greats the game and made their mark. The Open
:02:21. > :02:24.Championship has been staged here 28 times, a record 28 times and this is
:02:24. > :02:29.only the second time in history that the best women golfers in the world
:02:29. > :02:33.have tackled this famous course. Indeed, this is the trophy that they
:02:33. > :02:40.are playing for. The elegant lines of the silver trophy which bears
:02:40. > :02:43.more than a passing nod to the old Claret Jug itself. I say testing
:02:43. > :02:48.themselves on The Old Course and that is what has been happening.
:02:48. > :02:51.They were probably with us yesterday because the third round was
:02:51. > :02:55.abandoned at 12:30pm with quite a few players still out on the
:02:55. > :02:59.course. Indeed, our leaders were still to go out. For the second year
:02:59. > :03:04.in a row, this great Championship is heading for a marathon final day
:03:04. > :03:10.with 86 holes to be completed by many of the leading players. We
:03:10. > :03:14.started the week with more than a passing nod to the great Inbee Park
:03:14. > :03:19.of Korea. Could she be the woman to become the first fresh and golfer,
:03:19. > :03:29.male or female, to win four Major titles in the same year? -- first
:03:29. > :03:32.
:03:32. > :03:38.female golfer. Andrew Cotter reflects on the first few days.
:03:38. > :03:41.It all began with all the attention on Inbee Park. To boldly go where no
:03:41. > :03:44.player has gone before and win four professional Majors in the same
:03:44. > :03:49.year. It seemed possible after the opening round, even with two shots
:03:49. > :03:55.going in the 16th a 69 was a good start. It is a fine opening round by
:03:55. > :03:59.Inbee Park. Choosing a fourth consecutive Major. But the American
:03:59. > :04:04.challenge was strong. Who better to do so than the world number two,
:04:04. > :04:08.Stacey Lewis, working her way around in 67. That is the way to do it. And
:04:08. > :04:14.Morgan Pressel went one better, sharing lead with the late finisher
:04:14. > :04:24.from Sweden. And it was a strong close from Catriona Matthew, the
:04:24. > :04:26.
:04:27. > :04:35.2009 champion, with birdies on the 17th and 18th. Well cold.-- cold.
:04:35. > :04:45.Round two, and once more things were benign. A sexy sex was waiting. Two
:04:45. > :04:48.
:04:48. > :04:53.Eagles came in the front nine. -- 66. The slight figure of 19 -- MA
:04:53. > :05:01.Yeon Choi sailed into a one-shot lead with an impressive 5-under par.
:05:01. > :05:10.Go on. And it did. Wind assisted. That score was found by Jee Young
:05:10. > :05:15.Lee and Suzann Pettersson. But Inbee Park fell foul of the draw. And the
:05:15. > :05:18.dream of four Majors was lifting away. Then the wind blew so hard
:05:18. > :05:22.that it led to the day out of the week. Saturday disappeared and it
:05:22. > :05:28.was all to be done on Sunday instead. A long day, an early start
:05:28. > :05:32.beginning with a sandstorm. Meanwhile, there was a charge from
:05:32. > :05:36.Catriona Matthew. How to better her birdie birdie finish of the first
:05:36. > :05:39.day? She found a way on the 18th. And suddenly there was a thought
:05:39. > :05:43.that the winner would come not from the East or west, from closer to
:05:43. > :05:48.home. But it was the Americans who would lead going into the final
:05:48. > :05:54.round. Stacy Lewis old lead two of the last three are still sneaked
:05:54. > :06:01.under 70. -- bogeyed. And Morgan Pressel, the youngest ever to win a
:06:01. > :06:09.Major six years ago. Now at The Old Course imposition to win again.
:06:09. > :06:13.holed by Morgan Pressel. But in right at the top with 71. -- putting
:06:13. > :06:18.her. It is all change at the top as we head into the final round. Morgan
:06:18. > :06:24.Pressel seeking her second Major title with a one-shot advantage.
:06:24. > :06:29.Then four at 7-under, including MA Yeon Choi and Suzann Pettersson. But
:06:29. > :06:33.the most startling move was made by Catriona Matthew, the last non-Asian
:06:33. > :06:37.winner of this title, beginning the third round eight shots off the pace
:06:37. > :06:42.and finding herself only three behind after that superb round of
:06:42. > :06:45.68. As for Inbee Park, a 74 this morning put level for the
:06:45. > :06:50.Championship and nine shots behind Morgan Pressel. Grand Slam ambitions
:06:50. > :06:54.are hanging by a fins -- thin thread. It could be quite an
:06:54. > :06:57.afternoon but here is how our afternoon but here is how our
:06:57. > :07:03.leaders viewed the situation after afternoon but here is how our
:07:03. > :07:13.leaders viewed Eyeshot 3-over today. I did not hit any bunkers, but it
:07:13. > :07:16.
:07:16. > :07:20.was a nightmare. Every bunker was not a good life. -- good life. It
:07:20. > :07:27.was not easy and there but I'd have to go one more around, so why will
:07:27. > :07:32.do my best this afternoon. I was up at 430, so it was still
:07:32. > :07:39.dark out. And you it was going to be a long day. I did a good job today
:07:39. > :07:46.and they feel good about the round. 69, write in touch. A couple of
:07:46. > :07:54.slips, but how do you view your position? Overall, eyeshot even par
:07:54. > :07:59.on the back nine. 17 is basically par-5 today. Do not feel like those
:07:59. > :08:05.bookies will hurt me. -- I do not feel like those bogeys will hurt me.
:08:05. > :08:11.I've got a couple of hours to rest up. You have to think so much over
:08:12. > :08:16.every shot so by the end of the day, I do not know I will be thinking.
:08:16. > :08:26.Have a team or bowls of some intense focus and they should be OK. Ash I
:08:26. > :08:29.
:08:29. > :08:33.have 18 or more holes. I wonder if the vibes are returning? is -- gave
:08:33. > :08:38.myself a really good chance and it felt good to be back in contention.
:08:38. > :08:42.Especially at such a special place, Saint Andrews. I am playing well. As
:08:42. > :08:47.for conditions, it is going to be very breezy again. Nothing like the
:08:47. > :08:52.wind speed that we experienced yesterday. Gusts of up to 25 mph by
:08:52. > :08:57.mid-afternoon. This is once again going to be a real test of patience
:08:57. > :09:01.and nerve. There has been time to cut new pin positions for the final
:09:01. > :09:05.round. You might remember that Ken was almost blown into the yesterday
:09:05. > :09:07.at the far end of the course full stop they will be out on the course
:09:07. > :09:14.again this afternoon but right now he is surveying the scene from on
:09:14. > :09:20.high will stop --. This must be the best view of the house -- in the
:09:20. > :09:24.house. It looks magnificent from here.
:09:24. > :09:29.There is the beach where the kids are playing with their dogs and the
:09:29. > :09:37.beachball. And the RNA clubhouse with a make up the rules of the
:09:37. > :09:40.game. -- where they make up. What a sight on a sunny day. But if you are
:09:40. > :09:47.a golfer, this has got to be the greatest view in golf. Feast your
:09:47. > :09:54.eyes on this. That is just fantastic. The first tee, and the
:09:54. > :09:59.18th coming back. Fantastic. It is going to be a day of, can you make a
:09:59. > :10:04.few birdies on the opening nine holes? The wind is freshening of the
:10:04. > :10:08.day has gone by. It is going to be tough. Anybody breaking par today
:10:08. > :10:14.will be delighted. Of course, trying to win on the old course is nothing
:10:14. > :10:19.like it. Just have a look at that. I cannot wait to get out there. And
:10:19. > :10:22.neither can we. It has been a long day for
:10:22. > :10:28.everybody, as you heard. The players and officials have been up since
:10:28. > :10:31.before dawn. With this 36 hole finish, there has been no time to
:10:31. > :10:35.redraw the field so the pairings will be exactly as they were at the
:10:35. > :10:38.start of the third round. And that means that the winner might emerge
:10:38. > :10:42.from way down the field. We will have to keep a close watch on how
:10:42. > :10:44.things are developing. It promises to be pretty exciting. But it
:10:44. > :10:48.to be pretty exciting. But it reminder of some of the key And in
:10:48. > :10:54.whose company they will be playing. The world number two, Stacy Lewis,
:10:54. > :10:59.the last non-Asian winner of a Major two and a half years ago. She was 15
:10:59. > :11:05.minutes after the lights -- after the likes of Catriona Matthew. In
:11:05. > :11:08.the company of Hee Young Park, who began two shots from the top. Will
:11:08. > :11:12.the winner emerge from this dual? Suzann Pettersson and Morgan
:11:12. > :11:17.Pressel. Both won their only Major is six years ago. It has been a
:11:17. > :11:22.while. And our final pairing sees the charming now union -- MA Yeon
:11:22. > :11:29.Choi and meaty Sankey, trying to become the second Japanese woman in
:11:29. > :11:32.history to land a Major title. -- Miki Saiki. The match got going at
:11:32. > :11:37.high noon and things looked OK for Katrina Matthew. She started three
:11:37. > :11:43.shots off the pace. Unfortunately, there was a bogey on the third and a
:11:43. > :11:50.triple at the fifth. That knocked off centre. There was a birdie four
:11:50. > :11:57.her, on the ninth. 3-under at that point. Five shots off the pace.
:11:57. > :12:02.Let's confirm the situation as it stands. The is a bit of movement,
:12:02. > :12:06.not much of it forward, it has to be said. Morgan Pressel has dropped a
:12:06. > :12:15.shot at the second. She finds herself 1-over after two calls. She
:12:15. > :12:20.still leads by one. Hee Young Park has made a move, steady through two
:12:20. > :12:24.calls. Stacy Lewis, also, 2-over for her round. Further down, Catriona
:12:24. > :12:30.Matthew, still in touch. She has an awful what to do on the last nine
:12:30. > :12:34.holes. So where will the winner come from? We suspect it is probably not
:12:34. > :12:39.going to be any of these players. Cristie Kerr has had the best round
:12:39. > :12:47.of the day, the double Major winner from America. Home with 3-under par.
:12:47. > :12:50.Good playing from her. Also, always a fearsome contender. Part of the
:12:50. > :13:00.Solheim cup team for America. Those teams will be announced at the close
:13:00. > :13:01.
:13:01. > :13:08.of play. Let's get out there, shall we? There is a lot to be decided.
:13:08. > :13:18.Here is our leader, Morgan Pressel. With a birdie putt. 8-under, just
:13:18. > :13:18.
:13:18. > :13:22.one ahead. By fancy that will be plenty of drama this afternoon. The
:13:22. > :13:32.Windies freshening, as Ken was saying. The course is not easy by
:13:32. > :13:32.
:13:32. > :13:37.any means. Ken Brown will be following this match. It is breezy.
:13:37. > :13:40.There are grey clouds coming over for the first time. It is going to
:13:40. > :13:46.be a real challenge. To win a Major is brilliant but to win a Major on
:13:46. > :13:51.The Old Course, you are a legend. Many things to be looked at today
:13:51. > :14:01.but someone will be the champ. It could be Suzann Pettersson. This
:14:01. > :14:06.4-part on the second. -- for par. The trick is to get the second shot
:14:06. > :14:15.close, as close as possible as you can it sounds daft to say that, but
:14:15. > :14:20.it is easy to have 35 yard par is all the time. -- putts. You do not
:14:20. > :14:24.play badly but you keep dropping shots, which can be frustrating. We
:14:24. > :14:28.have had an e-mail saying, is this the only golf course two the answer
:14:28. > :14:34.is no. The parkland course has a reputation of being wet. They have
:14:34. > :14:44.dried out and it is absolutely splendid now. -- they have dried it
:14:44. > :14:45.
:14:45. > :14:55.out. She needs a few more numbers to offset that triple she had at the
:14:55. > :15:02.
:15:02. > :15:07.fifth. I was just saying, this is a there Matthew by Matthew. Miki Saiki
:15:07. > :15:17.started with a six on the first toll, dumping her second shot into
:15:17. > :15:34.
:15:34. > :15:38.the burn, she did not manage to get sophisticated golf, but it is as
:15:38. > :15:42.golf started out to be - on the links land between the shore and the
:15:42. > :15:46.arable land, and they knocked a few balls around, the old shepherds,
:15:46. > :15:52.probably with a round pebble and a crook, messing about, and it
:15:53. > :16:02.developed into this. Window virtually stayed across on this
:16:03. > :16:03.
:16:03. > :16:52.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:16:52. > :16:58.fourth hole, 215 yards to carry. -- hitters, so she has got to get a
:16:58. > :17:03.good solid hit year. If the ball pitches in the hump, it will take
:17:03. > :17:11.on, but she needs to strike it well to hit the fairway. I think she's
:17:12. > :17:17.apprised everyone with her tee shot which hit the road, but you was only
:17:17. > :17:23.a handful of yards off the green. -- she's surprised. Na Yeon Choi back
:17:23. > :17:28.on the third. Attempting to take out the under relation with a
:17:28. > :17:36.high-flying shot, and a lovely braking action by the golf ball. --
:17:36. > :17:46.undulation. Stacy Lewis. Just a couple behind, this is for par at
:17:46. > :17:53.
:17:53. > :18:03.fifth and the 18th. Expander, but not the best of starts. -- six
:18:03. > :18:05.
:18:05. > :18:11.very good Japanese coach. They have not always seen eye to eye, but
:18:11. > :18:18.after one of her recent wins, she bought him an expensive bottle of
:18:18. > :18:22.red -- 4000 dollars worth. They are obviously getting on better now. Oh,
:18:22. > :18:32.and dad would have preferred to see that one drop! That will be a par
:18:32. > :18:47.
:18:47. > :18:57.three or four shots behind a chance to claw their way closer, but nobody
:18:57. > :18:59.
:18:59. > :19:09.has nipped in so far. Hee Young Park. She won last month in the
:19:09. > :19:17.
:19:17. > :19:20.United States, had two victories people's pick for this
:19:20. > :19:30.championship. She has been the top American player for the last number

:19:33. > :19:37.about the fact that you can go left at St Andrews, but ideally, if you
:19:37. > :19:44.can play every tee shot ten or 12 yards in from the right-hand side
:19:44. > :19:53.the fairway, it makes the cause shots easier. After that delightful
:19:53. > :20:03.page, Na Yeon for a chance of birdie. Oh, well holed, well holed!
:20:03. > :20:15.
:20:15. > :20:25.hole. A very exciting round this morning, two under for the
:20:25. > :20:25.
:20:25. > :21:42.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:21:42. > :21:45.She with the fluorescent ball, this flag there that the wind is
:21:45. > :21:50.freshening, sweeping across the golf course. It has not changed thus far
:21:50. > :21:56.pretty well over the last two days. It moves around a fraction. She
:21:56. > :22:05.dropped a stroke at the last hole. The fifth is a monster par five.
:22:05. > :22:14.Only two fives year, the fifth and 14th. This is Nicole Castrale for
:22:14. > :22:21.par. The two-time US Solheim Cup. Well done. She has not played so
:22:21. > :22:31.much in recent years. She had shoulder surgery and then, in 2011,

:23:08. > :23:22.

:23:32. > :23:34.
:23:34. > :23:41.actually went around the chicane edge of the bunker, she could not
:23:41. > :23:48.have played it any better than that. Edison is on the upslope. --
:23:48. > :23:51.Pettersen. She has got the power to get it a bit higher and landed
:23:51. > :24:01.softer, but it is still a very high tariff shot, flirting with the
:24:01. > :24:05.
:24:05. > :24:14.manageable, this, but you have to have a go at that bunker, and it is
:24:14. > :24:24.make something on the front line with easy blocks and hope it does
:24:24. > :24:32.
:24:32. > :24:37.not fall down on the back nine. -- pitching another five or ten yards
:24:37. > :24:47.up the green, but it is not too bad at all. Any time you are forced to
:24:47. > :25:01.
:25:01. > :25:04.fly the ball high, those cross that flat area, a few gorse bushes,
:25:04. > :25:10.no trees. That is the difference between here and the parkland
:25:10. > :25:20.course, a couple or three miles away from here. Well worth a visit now
:25:20. > :25:51.
:25:51. > :25:56.eight under. But you see, these players are still in... Well,
:25:56. > :25:59.probably getting a little bit out of touch, but it is possible to have a
:25:59. > :26:09.golden spell, somebody get into a corner of a bunker which is
:26:09. > :26:11.
:26:11. > :26:17.impossible to get out of. Mamiko Higa. It is rolling well. She has
:26:17. > :26:27.won a couple of times this year on the Japanese LPGA. Here is Catriona
:26:27. > :26:27.
:26:27. > :26:37.at the 11th. The ball did roll down, two or three yards down the Hill. It
:26:37. > :26:41.
:26:41. > :26:51.scruffy, it has been in that area for much of the championship, the
:26:51. > :26:53.
:26:53. > :27:03.the course, so it dries out and it takes a bit of a pounding from the
:27:03. > :27:19.
:27:19. > :27:25.afternoon. That has got to come in a letter from left to right, just too
:27:25. > :27:31.late. -- come in a little. But she is a player who could get in
:27:31. > :27:41.relatively early. In fact, either of the players from this group, Park
:27:41. > :27:45.
:27:45. > :27:49.and Lewis, they could post the score and there you see it. She has got
:27:49. > :27:56.three other top-ten finishes as well this year, so she is quite used to
:27:56. > :28:06.the letters being up there in the latter stages of a tournament.
:28:06. > :28:31.
:28:31. > :28:39.Pettersen now, a birdie putt at the is needed! That is a very timely
:28:39. > :28:49.birdie. That move is said to seven under, one off the lead. -- that
:28:49. > :29:20.
:29:21. > :29:29.through our effects microphones out on the course. But it is not a cold
:29:29. > :29:35.wind. Thank goodness! This is Lizette Salas. Solheim cup
:29:35. > :29:40.player, Maureen, do you think? she is on the cusp, there are two or
:29:40. > :29:50.three of them for the last four places. She looks a tidy player to
:29:50. > :30:09.
:30:09. > :30:15.top tens. Just one missed cup this year. She reminds me a great deal of
:30:15. > :30:20.Nancy Lopez in the way she moves around the course. In her demeanour.
:30:20. > :30:30.Back on the seventh, they have removed a lot of course from the

:52:50. > :52:57.anything, Peter. No, well, you know, you never get nowhere by being too
:52:57. > :53:01.hasty! 140 yards. The ball is going to pop up in the air, this is
:53:01. > :53:05.extremely tricky to get the ball back to the pin, and with the wind
:53:05. > :53:11.off the left, you have to aim at eight or ten yards left, maybe even

:56:49. > :56:58.That is a super shot. See the wind blasting across, she held that

:58:45. > :58:55.pin, a real chance. I think she is going to pitch and run it, and let
:58:55. > :59:10.
:59:10. > :59:20.of any marks out of anything for that, I don't think. It is neither
:59:20. > :59:25.

:00:01. > :00:06.before it collides with any mound. That took off well. Just a hoik down
:00:06. > :00:12.the fairway, really. Oh, good, that helped, that helped greatly! You

:17:28. > :17:35.when she saw where the ball was lying, she would have fancied her

:19:28. > :19:31.
:19:31. > :19:41.gets. This is a difficult hole. The pin is cut right in front. They have
:19:41. > :20:13.

:23:14. > :23:14.
:23:14. > :23:22.the 11th green. I suppose the wind this afternoon is 12 mph less than
:23:22. > :23:32.it was yesterday. The wind is a crescendo as you come out from the
:23:32. > :23:39.
:23:39. > :23:46.first. The further you come out, the if you should aim at the camera
:23:46. > :23:56.van, and that looks just about right. She could go even left of

:32:55. > :33:05.with a seven. She is going to use left. It is heading back left. Not
:33:05. > :33:23.
:33:23. > :33:27.too bad. This is Georgia Hall, win. What a year she has had. In
:33:27. > :33:37.that final match, she only got her nose in front at the 17th, when she
:33:37. > :33:50.
:33:50. > :34:00.holed in one. That is the medal for trouble. Natalie Gulbis, one of just

:34:50. > :35:20.
:35:20. > :35:30.It is very easy just to get a bit frustrated out here. You can end up

:35:31. > :35:36.giving one a bang past. Hee Young Park, she has got 159
:35:36. > :35:46.yards to the pin. It is whipping from the right. She is go to have to
:35:46. > :35:59.
:35:59. > :36:09.aim at the TV tower. A bit left and one. We saw the loose tee shot of
:36:09. > :36:10.
:36:10. > :36:20.Stacy Lewis. News of that in a moment. A bit of a dab with the
:36:20. > :36:26.
:36:26. > :36:33.With these cross breezes, as the players turned to the 12th, it is
:36:33. > :36:38.becoming difficult to control the golf ball. There is Stacy Lewis.
:36:38. > :36:44.She hasn't got a great line. She is unsighted to the pin. She has got to
:36:44. > :36:52.try to let it run on. She has removed the cameraman from his

:37:02. > :37:05.
:37:05. > :37:15.She thought she was close to the bushes. There is the cameraman. A
:37:15. > :37:40.

:39:21. > :39:26.four wins. It is the Koreans who are at the leaderboard once again. Such

:40:02. > :40:06.majors in 1998, in her rookie year, and winning five majors in total. So
:40:06. > :40:12.many were inspired to follow her example, follow her lead, indeed, to
:40:12. > :40:18.the PGA tour in America. The rest is history. They are making their

:43:03. > :43:10.settling herself. It is going to get worse. Mark it, quick smart. If
:43:10. > :43:20.the greens were quicker at all, that would be back down. Might not be the
:43:20. > :43:33.
:43:33. > :43:39.last one there. Just a slight twitch Americans say, and was the first
:43:39. > :43:49.player to do that. That was the first time they had five matches in
:43:49. > :44:18.
:44:18. > :44:26.there. This for a par. Once the players managed to complete that
:44:26. > :44:30.connection, they turned here down to the 12, and it is very much the case
:44:30. > :44:37.of having to hang on. It is going to need a strong all-round golf game
:44:37. > :44:43.and a strong minds to cope with the pressures of the homeward stretch.
:44:43. > :44:50.-- a strong mind. The final hole, and the final efforts of Inbee Park,
:44:50. > :45:00.who came into this week with great hopes. A lot of others expected
:45:00. > :45:16.
:45:16. > :45:26.great things. 6-under after ten in Championship. 5-over for the
:45:26. > :45:41.

:46:36. > :47:28.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds

:50:25. > :50:31.She came very close to derailing Inbee Park. At the PGA
:50:31. > :50:41.Championships, she came from a long way behind. Perhaps there was the
:50:41. > :50:43.
:50:43. > :50:53.thoughts today that she could do it. A leading home player. 2-under par
:50:53. > :50:55.

:53:53. > :54:14.
:54:14. > :54:24.This hole has caused some tears over the week. Lots of sixes and sevens.
:54:24. > :54:53.
:54:53. > :55:00.testing. The wind has risen just a little bit. Certainly enough. Now
:55:00. > :55:10.this is a little awkward. She is a little unlucky, to be fair. She
:55:10. > :55:34.
:55:35. > :55:44.needs to watch that the grants does with. That is the fifth. You're
:55:44. > :55:54.going to enjoy this. She is still on the green. In new money, about four
:55:54. > :56:02.kilometres of putt. How are you doing, Ken, my old friend? It is
:56:02. > :56:12.gorgeous. Suzann Pettersen has played very defensively. A long way
:56:12. > :56:38.
:56:38. > :56:42.very nice. It is. A lovely little shot. Interesting, she has the
:56:42. > :56:52.strength to get closer to the green than a lot of her fellow competitors
:56:52. > :56:57.
:56:58. > :57:07.but she chooses to move around and long way behind. Quickly back to the
:57:08. > :57:33.
:57:33. > :57:43.with the ladies it is almost as if they have not got the confidence in
:57:43. > :57:57.
:57:58. > :58:05.their decision-making. Pitching blue yonder. That needed a bit more

:58:15. > :58:18.
:58:18. > :58:22.Championship last Friday. Hamish McNaughton has called him. You

:58:32. > :58:36.
:58:36. > :58:42.ago. And we won, he says, with a touch of pride. Well, she is off. If
:58:42. > :58:52.you see the lighthouse on the corner, keep left of that. She has
:58:52. > :58:52.
:58:52. > :58:59.got her putter out. Just on the green. He is going past that one,
:58:59. > :59:06.out of sight. This is without doubt the longest putt I have ever seen on
:59:06. > :59:12.a course. Michael Phelps, the swimmer, was playing in the Dunhill
:59:12. > :59:21.links. We saw a big one from Robert Gallagher said at the Open
:59:21. > :59:31.Championships. -- Garagas. Many years ago, Terry Wogan held the
:59:31. > :59:41.record. But this is a long one. If this goes on, one continuous shot,
:59:41. > :59:50.
:59:50. > :00:00.don't say how many goals did she the weekend the home amateurs are
:00:00. > :00:10.
:00:10. > :00:17.that. Incidentally, people have been
:00:17. > :00:27.asking about Spain. They are hoping for the best, but he is not making
:00:27. > :00:45.
:00:45. > :00:48.much regrets. This is for the lead. Inverness wants to know, do we have
:00:48. > :00:58.a left-handed player? There must be some. But none here. There are not
:00:58. > :01:01.in view -- many in the world of ladies' golf, I think. I wonder if
:01:01. > :01:11.that is because of the equipment, they are encouraged to play

:01:12. > :01:22.right-handed, as men were 40 years A birdie attempt. Another St Andrews

:03:05. > :03:15.That was to join the lead. Almost like a replay. She was halfway to

:03:45. > :03:52.the world. Look at this again. Can't miss, can it? Oh, you little demon.
:03:52. > :04:02.And by such margins, championships are won and lost. Stacy Lewis pops
:04:02. > :04:31.
:04:31. > :04:38.co-leaders. It has been a long day already. These players have been out
:04:38. > :04:48.for their third round since 6:15am. The leaders went off about 7:15am.
:04:48. > :04:55.
:04:55. > :05:05.This has been a marathon day for into this par-3. What a shock,
:05:05. > :05:14.
:05:14. > :05:22.though. Stay there, stay. Just 158 if the ball goes in the wrong hole,
:05:22. > :05:25.where you just pick it out. You don't get a penalty. Sometimes it
:05:25. > :05:33.would be easiest to putt to the whole you are nearest to. It doesn't
:05:34. > :05:43.work that way. Suzann Pettersen has had some of the longest discussions
:05:44. > :05:46.
:05:47. > :05:53.with her caddie. The crowds have turned out today, and why not. They
:05:53. > :05:56.have always been wonderful organisers of this event. All of the
:05:56. > :06:00.signage and everything has been well constructed. It looks but a proper
:06:00. > :06:05.job. You just feel sorry for the board carriers, those who have to
:06:05. > :06:10.put the scores up. I was wondering if they could get one of wire mesh
:06:10. > :06:20.or something, to make it easier. One man was nearly swept away trying to
:06:20. > :06:21.
:06:21. > :06:31.hold one. The flag is right behind that bug up there. -- that one car.
:06:31. > :06:43.
:06:43. > :06:48.photographers. Once, the wind was so strong, he threw the ball on the
:06:48. > :06:58.ground, gave it a smack, and it went on the green. What time does it get
:06:58. > :07:03.
:07:03. > :07:13.dark around here? The pin is behind the bunker. The wind is whipping
:07:13. > :07:43.
:07:43. > :07:53.then it was gone. I would like to know the time taken between the shot
:07:53. > :08:19.
:08:19. > :08:29.and Pettersen hit the ball. That is difficult to see why Gold takes so
:08:29. > :08:47.
:08:47. > :08:57.long at the highest level, is it, up here. -- the grass is funny up
:08:57. > :09:12.
:09:12. > :09:20.through our effects microphones. It could suggest it is creeping up. Oh,
:09:20. > :09:29.hello. This is a delight. Would you believe it. It is good for you, you
:09:29. > :09:37.know, bananas. I would like to know how he unpeeled it, though.
:09:37. > :09:47.always start at the other end. She is not aiming at the wrecked flag.
:09:47. > :09:55.
:09:56. > :10:04.you can go until any age. There is a lovely lady in North Wales, she is
:10:04. > :10:14.still playing, knocking on for 100. How about that? Big skies above East
:10:14. > :10:22.Fife. You'd have to say it is an artist's sky. It is magnificent,
:10:22. > :10:30.isn't it? Pettersen going with a putt. Oh, she hit the wrong side of
:10:30. > :10:40.it. Could get lucky. Here she comes. Sort of got in between one and the

:11:36. > :11:44.in the rough on the left. If she can get a chase down the right-hand
:11:44. > :11:49.side, she might get close. But you have got the ramp at the front there
:11:49. > :11:59.that is tough to get over. Lots of slopes and hollows short of this
:11:59. > :12:33.
:12:33. > :12:41.slower than it looks. You have to -- right on cue. That is why the

:15:01. > :15:10.looks as if it is in a ball up against off well, say no more!
:15:10. > :15:13.not great! But she can get it going forward and out. Can she?It is not
:15:13. > :15:17.right up against the face. She's worried about how to get in the
:15:17. > :15:20.bunker at the moment, because she does not want to give her caddie too
:15:20. > :15:30.much rating, so she is not going from the back, she's gone to jump
:15:30. > :15:30.
:15:30. > :15:33.down the side, I think. Well, I don't know. We cannot waste half an
:15:33. > :15:43.hour while you decide how far you will walk into the bunker so it
:15:43. > :15:52.
:15:52. > :15:57.saves your caddie from rating the bunker all week, and we have not
:15:57. > :16:01.seen anyone in it until this point, but you can see why it is so named.
:16:01. > :16:11.You could come in decide and tiptoe around the edge. I do not think she

:17:09. > :17:13.these things that come up in wheat fields, you know, people holding
:17:13. > :17:18.hands. She did not want to put too many footprints in the bunker. I
:17:18. > :17:24.will tell you what, if she gets out the way she is going, I will give
:17:24. > :17:28.her a hearty vote of thanks. Bogeyed the 12th, the 13th, and although she
:17:28. > :17:38.has drawn a big part in the sand, she is probably going to drop a shot
:17:38. > :17:59.
:18:00. > :18:09.or more at the 14th. Meanwhile... She is going to hit it backwards,
:18:10. > :18:10.
:18:10. > :18:56.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:18:56. > :19:04.think that is dead. She has got to the camp, steady, now, don't...
:19:04. > :19:07.Steady! What excitement! They say golf is a dull game, how could you
:19:07. > :19:16.ever think that when all these little joyous moments happen playing

:20:56. > :21:02.rough, the sort of rough that does not look too bad but can grab your
:21:02. > :21:12.club if you are not careful. 102 yards to the flag, which is six over
:21:12. > :21:14.
:21:14. > :21:18.the little bluff at the front of the top of the flag. What can you do
:21:18. > :21:24.here? She could hit it to the left a little bit, there is a bit more
:21:24. > :21:29.landing area there. Is the television tower more or less in
:21:29. > :21:37.line from behind her, where she is aiming? You could aim left of it.
:21:37. > :21:41.The choice is yours. This is the second most difficult hole, not an
:21:41. > :21:45.easy shot from wherever you are coming in. It is a difficult tee
:21:45. > :21:55.shot, unless you are a big hitter, and then the Pic is extremely
:21:55. > :22:25.
:22:25. > :22:28.awkward. I would go to the left and seven under par. I just fancy it
:22:28. > :22:38.might be someone who finishes a bit before and sits back and watches
:22:38. > :22:47.
:22:47. > :22:57.in from the front of the green, the pen is on about aid. It is going to
:22:57. > :23:09.
:23:09. > :23:19.be a high floater again. -- the pin perfect on the front. Well struck
:23:19. > :23:32.
:23:32. > :23:39.and a bit of luck. Now, Hee Young bogeys in a row for Hee Young Park
:23:39. > :23:49.on this back nine. I think she did well to escape with just one drop
:23:49. > :23:56.
:23:57. > :24:06.it short. From that side, as Ken said, it is very slow, going further
:24:07. > :24:16.
:24:16. > :24:23.final hole, this is her tee shot to hear through the edge of the Valley
:24:23. > :24:27.of sin. It is a bit of a loose one, but a birdie putt to come, holing
:24:27. > :24:37.out from 80 yards or so earlier today to close her third round with
:24:37. > :24:55.
:24:55. > :25:00.a birdie eagle finish. This is how birdie-birdie, 74 then 68 again.
:25:00. > :25:10.That was this morning in the completion of the third round, came
:25:10. > :25:16.
:25:16. > :25:26.unstuck at the fifth with a triple putt, Little Ruggles, Homs and
:25:26. > :25:28.
:25:28. > :25:34.hollows to get over and a plateau at the top. -- little rubbles, humps.
:25:34. > :25:39.Na Yeon Choi has got a decent par putt to come on the 11th, Morgan
:25:39. > :25:49.Pressel looking good there, Stacy Lewis not too shabby at all. Morgan
:25:49. > :26:21.
:26:21. > :26:28.Pressel, a very shabby record in the lacking fractionally in pace, the
:26:28. > :26:32.longest she has made has been about a foot. Please... Oh no! She feels
:26:32. > :26:37.hard done by in that last few holes, that somehow stayed there to the
:26:37. > :26:47.tenth, bogey on the 11th, another one refuses to drop on the 12th.

:26:47. > :27:32.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:27:32. > :27:36.birdies on this toll in this championship and one eagle, she has
:27:36. > :27:42.destroyed the 18th, but level par for the championship, and that is
:27:42. > :27:52.good enough, tying for 11th place, the leading home player, as she
:27:52. > :27:52.
:27:52. > :28:02.often is, the 2009 champion, the UK's leading player. On the 17th,
:28:02. > :28:02.
:28:02. > :28:12.Dori Carter, she has hit a couple into the Old Course Hotel. Oh, well!
:28:12. > :28:13.
:28:13. > :28:23.That is a killer, isn't it? Five of either, level par for the
:28:23. > :28:32.
:28:32. > :28:42.nerves get jagged. If you can just keep your nerve, others may lose
:28:42. > :28:43.
:28:43. > :29:29.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:29:29. > :29:33.straight. Three putts for about four means Na Yeon Choi has a two shot
:29:33. > :29:43.advantage over the field, and Stacy Lewis is now the nearest challenger.
:29:43. > :29:52.
:29:53. > :30:01.NYC, Na Yeon Choi, the Big Apple, yet she is. That is a great position
:30:01. > :30:06.now. There was a bit of hope in the drive. It has gone over some
:30:06. > :30:16.dangerous stuff. Meanwhile, up ahead... Decisions,
:30:16. > :30:17.
:30:17. > :30:23.decisions. You get some shelter from the Hotel and various buildings on
:30:23. > :30:33.the right-hand side when the wind is coming from the right. This flag is
:30:33. > :30:33.
:30:33. > :31:57.Apology for the loss of subtitles for 49 seconds
:31:57. > :32:07.time for the players to keep the energy up. Remember, they have
:32:07. > :32:10.
:32:10. > :32:16.played nearly all of their third battling this wind and trying to
:32:16. > :32:26.keep their minds sharp. It all just takes a toll. It is getting done to
:32:26. > :32:56.
:32:56. > :33:02.Others are just chopping away a bit. You have got to feel that if she
:33:02. > :33:09.holds firm, it is hard for the rest of the field to make up ground. It
:33:09. > :33:19.is very tricky. Na Yeon Choi was on the money list in America in 2010.
:33:19. > :33:28.
:33:28. > :33:32.You can see it as a reasonably generous entrance into the green. A
:33:32. > :33:35.bit of a tilt from left to right. The wind is going the other way
:33:35. > :33:40.though. She has misjudged that second shot
:33:40. > :33:47.by a long way. She has got to negotiate this little ridge on the
:33:47. > :33:57.left. It has got a downslope and it is going to push it right. It is not
:33:57. > :34:10.
:34:10. > :34:20.an easy shot. But she has got a landed over the first hollow, take
:34:20. > :34:48.
:34:48. > :34:53.was unlucky. That drive was impressive. The 12th is a hole where
:34:53. > :35:03.things can go wrong. Some potential stumbling blocks for Choi. That was
:35:03. > :35:17.
:35:17. > :35:27.the best shots. He take a shot, then realise you have left the lens cap

:36:05. > :36:05.
:36:05. > :36:15.this angle, she has a chance to get close to a very tough pin. She
:36:15. > :36:19.
:36:19. > :36:29.caught it a little heavy. It is not bad though, Ken.
:36:29. > :36:29.
:36:30. > :36:39.Up to the 17th, Paula Creamer. This is for a birdie. Level par for the

:37:26. > :37:35.162 yards. Not bad. There is no different in the tea shops there. --

:41:10. > :41:19.way. That was right online. Somebody on six under par is going to have to
:41:19. > :41:25.do something. You just hope for a bit of a blink from Na Yeon Choi.
:41:25. > :41:35.Just in the last few holes, it has turned around from being a close
:41:35. > :41:47.
:41:47. > :41:52.affair at the top, and now Park has putt she has achieved today. If she
:41:52. > :42:02.misses, it'd probably curtains. Still some devilish holes to
:42:02. > :42:04.
:42:04. > :42:14.complete. That was an odd stroke, to be generous to it. That is her
:42:14. > :42:48.
:42:48. > :42:52.upwards. The flag is in the centre part of the green today, but you
:42:52. > :42:58.have got to try to urge the ball over the trough at the front to have
:42:58. > :43:03.an attempt and birdie. This is the status. Park has a three shot lead,
:43:03. > :43:09.which has opened up in the last ten minutes or so. The Americans are her
:43:09. > :43:19.closest chasers. The scores are what has been going on this -- in this

:45:26. > :45:33.good enough for level par, tied for challenge, she was going along quite
:45:33. > :45:37.nicely earlier in the championship. A slight change in the angle of the
:45:37. > :45:41.breeze. It would have been a bit more across earlier in the day, and
:45:41. > :45:44.that makes these closing holes a little easier. You have to get a
:45:44. > :45:50.good tee shot away, but the ball is being blown away from the out of
:45:50. > :45:58.bounds. Pressel, who likes to draw it, show she is going to aim this
:45:58. > :46:02.down the wall and let the breeze bring it back with her draw stroke.
:46:02. > :46:12.Not the longest hitter, but when she had said nicely, the ball fairly

:47:03. > :47:08.Morgan Pressel is never one to shirk a challenge, and she fired down that

:47:26. > :47:30.carry hell bunker, we have just seen this is one cross lady, having one
:47:30. > :47:38.of those days as St Andrews. A lot of greens, a lot of chances, and the
:47:38. > :47:48.putter goes cold on you. Galloping down the fairway! Well, she will be
:47:48. > :47:58.
:47:58. > :48:08.able to get on with a middle iron, Choi. She hoisted to the left,

:51:50. > :51:54.2008 and took a couple of years to get into her winning stride. She won
:51:54. > :52:00.twice in 2009 and has continued on from then, and a US Open win last

:54:56. > :55:02.in this final round. Just beside the 18th. A very nice place! Lewis's

:55:59. > :56:05.perhaps. Off it goes... She likes it. Oh, yes, yes indeed! It's
:56:05. > :56:15.dropped in from the left hand side, and as I was saying, Hee Young Park

:27:39. > :27:43.Well, a hug for the caddie, a bonus for him. What a moment. Well, that
:27:43. > :27:47.really was a terrific finish. It looked as if she had drifted out of

:29:00. > :29:05.the back nine that just kept out of the real picture. But what a
:29:05. > :29:11.thrilling finish for is they see Lewis. I do not think she can
:29:11. > :29:15.believe it, Maureen. That was a wonderful second shot. It looked a
:29:15. > :29:22.bit clumsy at the last, but then she holed out, eight or ten yards down

:30:55. > :31:05.changes. She needs to regroup and refocus. Suzann Pettersen needs
:31:05. > :31:21.
:31:21. > :31:27.three closing birdies and nothing with problems on the green. She did
:31:27. > :31:37.not quite make it on the 11th. The run of the ball has not been with

:52:30. > :52:40.shot. -- Chic lifted up nicely, but it is shot. The club sort of bounced
:52:40. > :52:50.under the ball, which is almost early starters might post a score
:52:50. > :52:52.
:52:52. > :53:02.that would force the chasing pack into errors, and that is what has
:53:02. > :53:22.
:53:22. > :53:32.proved likely, but we watch Castrale of Sin. It is not an easy two-putt
:53:32. > :53:52.
:53:52. > :54:02.strike -- well shot second, and that is what makes it one of the
:54:02. > :54:02.
:54:03. > :54:11.cruellest holes in the world. Lewis about, well, I might have nicked
:54:11. > :54:18.this... -- she has the order thought. Pressel has this for her
:54:18. > :54:28.par. She is currently at six under. If this misses, her chances are
:54:28. > :54:33.
:54:33. > :54:43.really over with. Clearly... And then there were two. I think there
:54:43. > :54:58.
:54:58. > :55:08.is only one now, Ken. Choi?NYK as naughty blackbird was trying to take
:55:08. > :55:11.
:55:11. > :55:21.it home, thinking it was some sort with Castrale, but we go back to

:57:07. > :57:14.steward needs to go and see somebody, because he was waving that
:57:14. > :57:20.it was out, but it wasn't, it hit the roof and clattered onto the
:57:20. > :57:29.fairway, a bit of good luck. Somebody has given me all the wrong
:57:29. > :57:39.information, it was out of bounds, it was out of bounds. Now, Na Yeon
:57:39. > :57:57.
:57:57. > :58:03.it is finished, horrid. You could say the caddie saying, land soft.
:58:03. > :58:13.She just ruled the flag with that one. Well, she is not all that far
:58:13. > :58:26.
:58:26. > :58:36.from the flag. Early congratulations and it got a huge kick forward. That
:58:36. > :58:46.is off towards the first see. There is the kernel, he is always on duty.
:58:46. > :58:53.
:58:53. > :58:56.would move up into the top eight, but just shy. A very good
:58:56. > :59:00.championship for Castrale. She has not played much over the last two or
:59:00. > :59:10.three years. A shoulder injury and then having a baby has seen to that,
:59:10. > :59:14.
:59:14. > :59:20.so this is a very welcome return to in the play-off against Doug
:59:20. > :59:25.Sanders, driving this green. I think this green may just be in range for
:59:25. > :59:30.Suzann Pettersen. Maybe not, maybe she is going to give herself a full
:59:30. > :59:34.shot in for an angle, and if you are going to do that, you have to go up
:59:34. > :59:44.the left-hand side. It is a very awkward pitch over the Valley of
:59:44. > :00:00.
:00:00. > :00:10.up on the middle left. If you have the courage to go up the right-hand
:00:10. > :00:26.

:00:36. > :00:43.
:00:43. > :00:47.there. If she can just chase it up, she should be OK. And the walk
:00:47. > :00:52.across that bridge will not be a walkover victory for either Morgan
:00:52. > :00:57.Pressel or Suzann Pettersen. Many of us fancied that the winner would
:00:57. > :01:02.come out of this peering. This is one of those shots where
:01:02. > :01:10.you've got to make just arrived contact to get it going forward. It
:01:10. > :01:20.is very easy to catch it heavy and end up halfway. Or to clatter it
:01:20. > :01:49.
:01:49. > :01:59.by. It has to get down into Mac. -- She finishes on 1-under for the
:01:59. > :02:02.
:02:02. > :02:09.Championship. Possessor of a precious final score in red figures.
:02:09. > :02:14.We could not hear the horn when we were warming up. And so nobody heard
:02:14. > :02:20.on and people started coming in. We looked on Twitter and we figured out
:02:20. > :02:30.there was a delay. It was more because of the wind, so we could not
:02:30. > :02:40.hear anything. So Twitter is useful. You have always said that, Maureen.
:02:40. > :02:41.
:02:41. > :02:46.It wasn't me! It was. You love Twitter. Ten players under-par for
:02:46. > :02:50.the Championship. And considering that we had astoundingly good
:02:50. > :03:00.conditions on the first day, with 60 players breaking par, it is not many
:03:00. > :03:20.
:03:20. > :03:30.at the end of the week. I be putting exciting. -- if this goes in, it
:03:30. > :03:52.
:03:53. > :04:02.will be a very exciting last hole. deserve to drop a shot but dropped a
:04:03. > :04:04.
:04:04. > :04:13.shot it did. And now she has two old, two at the last two tie. -- she
:04:13. > :04:23.has to hold. On the line that Suzann Pettersen has got, she has 71 and
:04:23. > :04:41.
:04:41. > :04:45.six, little nearer the green. She is such a strong player, and Na Yeon
:04:45. > :04:55.Choi, she is also disappointed at this moment, having given up a three

:09:31. > :09:31.
:09:31. > :09:39.per second shot to make a play-off. -- has two. Catriona Matthew is
:09:39. > :09:49.finished to -3 today, so will lightning strike twice? Have a drink

:12:13. > :12:18.awesome. She is a worthy winner indeed. She started the game at age
:12:18. > :12:24.eight. From the age of 11 she had to wear a back brace to correct the
:12:24. > :12:27.curvature of her spine. She had surgery when she was 18 and she is a

:16:45. > :16:49.That is how they ended up. I was impressed with Castrale, she seemed
:16:49. > :16:53.to have a number of problems yesterday but battled away very well

:17:05. > :17:12.early and came in with a 69, the best round, one of the best rounds
:17:12. > :17:17.of the last two rounds. Very good playing, but it has been difficult,
:17:17. > :17:20.the conditions have been very trying, with the wind blowing. The
:17:20. > :17:28.first day, particularly, was very benign, and they took advantage of
:17:29. > :17:37.it. And then the wind did blow, the greens speeded up. You can see the
:17:37. > :17:41.scores here, very few scores in the low 70s. But a good week, and
:17:41. > :17:46.enjoyable week, certainly from a spectator's point of view, and I
:17:46. > :17:51.hope you have enjoyed it at home. We don't see very many women's golf
:17:52. > :18:01.tournaments. They have a gracious air about them, which is rather
:18:02. > :18:08.
:18:08. > :18:18.ten or 15 years now, maybe a little bit less. A tremendous player. She

:18:35. > :18:40.difficult, not many scores this afternoon particularly over 80, and
:18:40. > :18:48.that is good going, because it certainly was not an easy day. And
:18:48. > :18:58.that is the whole field, way back to our leaderboard. That is how they

:19:09. > :19:16.the Read Devils are going to be... It has been windy, but they are
:19:16. > :19:21.getting up to a good height, and they are going to leap out with all
:19:21. > :19:29.sorts of coloured smoke flying out the back and landing I know not

:19:50. > :19:56.
:19:56. > :20:00.established. Well done, well done, raised, and the presentation, let's
:20:00. > :20:04.go and join Hazel. Thank you, Peter, it is time to
:20:04. > :20:14.salute our champion, Stacy Lewis, we have the presentation party in the
:20:14. > :20:14.
:20:15. > :20:22.company of the President of the LGU, and the president and CEO of Ricoh,
:20:22. > :20:25.please will you past is beatable trophy over to our champion. -- pass
:20:26. > :20:29.this beautiful trophy over to our champion? What a great moment it
:20:29. > :20:34.must be, do you have the words to describe what this moment feels like
:20:34. > :20:38.and what it means to you? It is unbelievable, you know, it all
:20:38. > :20:41.happened so fast at the end, you are fighting for every shot, and then
:20:41. > :20:47.all of a sudden you make a couple of birdies and it is over with. It was
:20:47. > :20:50.an unbelievably hard day, but this is a pretty good result! Your last
:20:50. > :21:00.competition is an amp that was the discovery, you had a fantastic run
:21:00. > :21:01.
:21:01. > :21:06.on the old the Old Course. Your last competition as an amateur was the,
:21:06. > :21:10.you had a fantastic run on the Old Course. I love the history here, we
:21:10. > :21:14.had such a great game plan for how to play with the different winds,
:21:14. > :21:19.and I felt so comfortable here, I almost felt like it was meant to be
:21:19. > :21:23.a little bit. Tell me about the finish, it was extraordinary, the
:21:23. > :21:28.second shot off the 17th, one of the best we have seen all week. One of
:21:28. > :21:34.the best of my career, it was a 5-iron, I do not know how far I had
:21:34. > :21:37.it, but we were trying to hit it about 160 in the air, and it worked
:21:37. > :21:42.out perfectly on the slope. I thought, if I could get to seven, I
:21:42. > :21:46.would make the play-off, but once we made birdie there, we both said, one
:21:46. > :21:51.more. That was your moment, did you think it would be enough at that
:21:51. > :21:55.moment when you hold out at the 18th? I thought eight and would be
:21:55. > :21:59.pretty hard to beat, the last holes were playing so hard, with the
:21:59. > :22:04.pressure, and it was doable, so I tried to stay in a moment and be
:22:04. > :22:08.ready for the play-off if it happened. You were up at 4:30am, how
:22:08. > :22:12.did you manage to keep your focus and concentration? You know, we
:22:12. > :22:17.talked about it. It went by pretty quickly, the pace of play was going,
:22:17. > :22:21.you have to focus on every shot, you couldn't think about anything else.
:22:21. > :22:27.It went by pretty quick! You have already won one major, does this
:22:27. > :22:31.topic? I don't know, that first major was pretty cool, but this one
:22:31. > :22:35.is high up the list. To be a champion at the home of golf, it was
:22:35. > :22:40.the finish of a champion, many congratulations to you. Thank you
:22:40. > :22:46.very much. PETER: Many congratulations from all
:22:46. > :22:53.of us, here they come, how they do it, I don't know! The wind blowing,
:22:53. > :23:03.they landed on target. He is another one coming down. Amazing! Can he do
:23:03. > :23:10.
:23:10. > :23:18.it? Just drifting a little bit, this is more difficult than a three
:23:18. > :23:28.foot putt. Here he comes, look at that, gentle. Don't hurry things.
:23:28. > :23:32.
:23:32. > :23:38.They used to thump into the ground, target, will he do it? Look at that!
:23:38. > :23:48.Terrific stuff! Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. The Red
:23:48. > :23:50.
:23:50. > :23:54.wind gave us some problems on Saturday, not for the first time we
:23:54. > :23:58.have had wind on the Saturday, but we got through it and all
:23:58. > :24:08.congratulations to the powers that be that organised it, and the
:24:08. > :24:12.
:24:12. > :24:20.players, who added so much to the nice to come to St Andrews, this
:24:20. > :24:30.very special place for golf. Some of the first serious golf, well, this
:24:30. > :24:37.
:24:37. > :24:47.and Prestwick, the first two places very splendid as well, absolutely
:24:47. > :24:55.
:24:55. > :25:01.big room, the great windows with the members looking out. The
:25:01. > :25:05.secretary's office above, with one of the best views in golf. A
:25:05. > :25:09.wonderful collection of staff in there, they are so charming and
:25:10. > :25:19.pleasant. I don't know, old-fashioned but gracious, I
:25:20. > :25:44.
:25:44. > :25:54.boys, and get ready, you have to do again on BBC Golf until the Masters
:25:54. > :26:00.
:26:00. > :26:06.next year, and I will be there, but smiling faces, some nice fashion
:26:06. > :26:13.statements, which I think is always nice and this bit of pageantry at
:26:13. > :26:17.the end, in front of the hotel. It really is something a bit special.
:26:17. > :26:23.The resuscitating goes on, and new things come. I am so pleased they
:26:23. > :26:27.resuscitated Hamilton Hall, the building that started out as a hotel
:26:27. > :26:33.in 1880 or something, it has been a treat to be here. I hope you have
:26:33. > :26:36.enjoyed it. Well, Peter, we have certainly enjoyed it, an absolute
:26:36. > :26:41.treat the comeback to the home of golf, and especially when you get
:26:41. > :26:45.the last hour and a half of a major championship that is so intense with
:26:45. > :26:49.so many changes of direction on the leaderboard. Stacy Lewis more than
:26:49. > :26:52.deserves a win, Maureen Madill is with me in the studio, I have
:26:52. > :27:02.managed to hightail it back up the ass the para douches to doing their
:27:02. > :27:02.
:27:02. > :27:07.of eight she was wearing a back brace and had to have an operation,
:27:07. > :27:13.a piece of steel in her back, five screws, she did not know if she
:27:13. > :27:17.would walk, an extraordinary feat. You talk about sports men and women
:27:17. > :27:22.having a spine of steel, but nobody has that's like Stacy Lewis. The
:27:22. > :27:26.thing was, when she was a child, the only time she did not wear the back
:27:26. > :27:30.brace was when she was playing golf, and she herself has said it
:27:30. > :27:34.was one of the escapes, and that is why she kept wanting to play golf,
:27:34. > :27:40.because it got her out of this terribly restrictive brace. But,
:27:40. > :27:44.Hazel, she was five under par for the first 36 holes, three under for
:27:44. > :27:47.the second 36. That's three under is what has one over this
:27:47. > :27:51.championship, because dreadful conditions, testing conditions all
:27:51. > :27:58.the time, she was immense. As we said in the interview, a long day,
:27:58. > :28:03.all of these women, but when we review her last 18 holes here, it is
:28:03. > :28:13.starting to unravel a little bit. This was at the 11th, when the wind
:28:13. > :28:14.
:28:14. > :28:18.was whistling on the most exposed caddies earlier in the week and I
:28:18. > :28:25.said, what is the key to winning here? All of them were of the mind
:28:25. > :28:31.that your Mrs are not bad, and that might sound negative, but she had
:28:31. > :28:36.taken a good club selection. She was well back. This was the Eagle putt
:28:36. > :28:41.at the 14th, just slipping by. But by this point, she was beginning to
:28:41. > :28:47.get back on the wagon. She picked up a shot there, and as we discussed
:28:47. > :28:53.with her at the time, what a strike this was. 5-iron, I mean, you have
:28:53. > :28:57.got to nail it to get that close, absolutely nail it, and she did. And
:28:57. > :29:02.that looks tiny, it is probably three or four feat with a little bit
:29:02. > :29:05.of right-to-left break, but this was gutsy, too. She's not really
:29:05. > :29:12.familiar with putting short of the green as she did, and that one was
:29:12. > :29:16.immense. And then that nervous wait. What was significant, not just for
:29:16. > :29:21.Stacy, she was the last non-Asian winner of a women's major two and a
:29:21. > :29:26.half years ago, which was a maiden victory in the Kraft Nabisco, and
:29:26. > :29:30.she now breaks this run of ten. Housing and a moment is that as the
:29:30. > :29:35.balance of power perhaps begins to change once again? -- how
:29:35. > :29:39.significant. I think, after Lorena Ochoa retired and so on, Cristie
:29:39. > :29:43.Kerr shortly afterwards became world number one, and she was the first
:29:43. > :29:46.American of there for some considerable time. Stacy Lewis has
:29:46. > :29:50.stepped forward and taken on the mantle of the best American player,
:29:50. > :29:59.really leading the battle against the Korean and Asian invasion into
:29:59. > :30:01.America. You know, LPGA Player of the Year, the first American to win
:30:01. > :30:04.that title for 19 years, since Beth Danielle. So you know, she is
:30:04. > :30:08.becoming a little bit of a talisman for them, and she is a good leader.
:30:08. > :30:12.In the last time we see her, she will be leading the Americans
:30:12. > :30:16.against the Europeans at the Sol I'm cup. That is coming up very soon. We
:30:16. > :30:18.thought there might have been a Korean winner today, because Na Yeon
:30:19. > :30:25.Choi had excellent chances and a three shot lead at the 13th. Let's
:30:25. > :30:28.just review some of the important moments from around, because she set
:30:28. > :30:36.of very well. This was her birdie chance at the third. Yes, such
:30:36. > :30:41.wonderful balance and focus, I mean, I have been a long time at the mire
:30:41. > :30:47.of Na Yeon Choi. He does not really have any weaknesses in her game. I
:30:47. > :30:50.am sure she has never swung a putter that far back in her life! They have
:30:50. > :30:57.really just had a glance at these greens, they are extreme the
:30:57. > :31:00.difficult. That is why I think that putter will never win anything major
:31:00. > :31:05.around you, because you need leverage. But that was a great one,
:31:05. > :31:08.just keeping her in the mix, and she suddenly, without having done
:31:08. > :31:18.anything too much, had a three shot lead, and then it all started to
:31:18. > :31:20.
:31:20. > :31:24.slip away. This one went way right on her. Things were beginning to
:31:24. > :31:32.unravel and suddenly she was one shot behind as she came to the 17th.
:31:32. > :31:36.An impossible task, really, without the goal at the last. -- with an
:31:36. > :31:40.eagle at the last. I felt that the winner might come from somebody who
:31:40. > :31:44.finished 40 minutes ahead of the last groups. I must admit I was
:31:44. > :31:49.hoping it would have been Catriona Matthew, a little bit of bias
:31:49. > :31:58.there! But when the score is. , it is too difficult to chase in these
:31:58. > :32:05.conditions on this golf course. And when you push it here, you run up
:32:05. > :32:08.big numbers. A two shot win was certainly not comfortable. We must
:32:08. > :32:12.mention the endeavours of Inbee Park, try to become the first
:32:12. > :32:16.professional golfer, male or female, to win four consecutive Majors. It
:32:16. > :32:21.has not happened but my goodness, she has had an amazing year. And
:32:21. > :32:25.still the chance of winning the last Major of the year. I think she will
:32:25. > :32:29.enjoy this now that it is over. That is how I feel about it. It was an
:32:29. > :32:34.extraordinary week. She had a lot to content with. It was not a good
:32:34. > :32:39.performance by her standards but it was solid. It was indeed. And Lydia
:32:39. > :32:44.Ko, the amateur, the leading amateur in five of the six Majors she has
:32:44. > :32:50.entered. She is only 16 and is ranked at number 70 in the world.
:32:50. > :32:54.feel sorry for Georgia hole. I think it is a shame that they do not share
:32:54. > :32:57.it in some way, that it is done on a spurious count back. But that is
:32:57. > :33:02.just the way it is. We were disappointed yesterday when the high
:33:02. > :33:06.wind blew away the chance of seeing good golf yesterday. But overall,
:33:06. > :33:12.how do you feel that women's golf has been portrayed this weekend?
:33:12. > :33:17.positive do you feel about that? -- how positive. I feel positive and I
:33:17. > :33:19.know the girls adore, near. This is so special to them all. Sometimes we
:33:20. > :33:25.think the youngsters have no sense of history that is patiently not
:33:25. > :33:29.true. It has been a great week and I have enjoyed spending it with you.
:33:29. > :33:34.Let me remind you that the world swimming champion chips will be
:33:34. > :33:40.coming up very shortly. -- Championships. Plenty to enjoy the
:33:40. > :33:43.in Spain. We started the week talking about Inbee Park but it is
