CURTIS CUP CAPTAINS' QUOTES

MARY McKENNA

Our girls gave it everything. It just didn't go their way today but,
you know, their futures are great.

As Carol (Semple Thompson) has said, this is one of the strongest teams
United States have ever had.

But, you know, I have too and I am sure that they will all bounce back
from this defeat because they're smashing players.

It's been good and I've enjoyed it all immensely.

CAROL SEMPLE THOMPSON

I thought we would win, but I didn't expect we would win 13-7 in the
end.

I have a very strong team but I didn't think they would play as well as
they did today in the worst weather of the three days.

All credit to my players. They did a great job. They just stayed in
there and finished strongly.

My abiding memory from this week? The St Andrews setting and having
such a great team to captain.

They were so much fun to be with. Everything just went right.

The new three-day format? It's OK. I don't dislike it.

Maybe we should play the Curtis Cup here at St Andrews every four years.
