she watched with interest when the men battled it out for the Presidents Cup in November of last year.

The 23-year-old arrived in Melbourne on Monday to start her preparations and is expecting the greens to be as firm, quick and challenging as they were during the Presidents Cup.

\"I definitely saw how it was firm and fast,\" she said.

\"They had a ton of trouble holding some of the greens and even putting off greens; it was pretty crazy.

\"I think it\'s a special week any time we can play on one of the best courses in the world. Titleist 910 D3 Driver


\"We play a lot of nice courses on tour but we don\'t play a tremendous number of truly the best courses.

\"To play aTitleist 910 D3 Driver
like this is definitely a treat for us.\"

Pressel said the news of 14-year-old Lydia Ko\'s victory at the NSW Open last month made her feel old.
