HEE KYUNG SEO:  Um, like last few months I couldn't trust myself and I could not focus on my game.  I just struggled on my puttings and shots.

So after Wegmans I went to Niagara Falls and I went ‑‑ what was the ship name?  I mean, I went to Falls with my parents, and we were talking about you need to be ‑‑ you are No. 1 to us, so you need to trust yourself.

And then, yeah, when I was played well in Korea, I think I really 100% trust myself, so I was trying keep trust myself, and then it happened.  Yeah.
