Lorena Ochoa: I Like the Way Ive Started

Twenty under. That pretty much says it all about the first 2008 start for Lorena Ochoa at the HSBC Womens Champions in Singapore. Lorena won by 11 over second-place finisher Annika Sorenstam.

When asked to put her opening victory into context, Lorena said:
It means a lot. To me it's a great motivation, you know? It makes me want to play better, to win more. But like I said, sometimes there is just no explanation. It just happens and it was a great win for me. Everything came together at the right place, and I'm ready to keep going. I do want to have a great year this year. I know it's going to be tough, we're just at the beginning, but I like the way I've started.

And what did Annika think of Lorenas performance?
She's playing well, but it's nothing I don't think that's not achievable by any means. I think I'm playing as good from tee to green, so I'm very proud of the way I hit it.

Its only one tournament, but I think Annika and the rest of the ladies have their work cut out for them.
