I've always liked Ledgestone and really any event that showcases two very different styles of golf. It feels a little bit more satisfying to have that win to show you have all of the skills possible. It's interesting though, we don't have as many Europeans as we're used to seeing, but it gives us a chance to maybe see some new faces. Rebecca Dawn is not someone we've seen a ton. We did see her at the Disc Mania Challenge and she looked absolutely calm and confident.

We see her do well on those types of courses and she's looking so smooth and looking so calm and confident right now that I feel like Valerie is my pick for tomorrow. And she has a bit of a lead. So, I think she is going to be confident and needs to be chased down, but anything can happen at Northwoods. >> It's not going to be a cakewalk. I think we're going to see a lot of flip-flopping on who's in the lead tomorrow. And I...
