From Mark: "Hi Sarah...sorry to see you did not make the cut at Kingston Heath...did you stay in Melbourne for the weekend or did you head for the Gold Coast to prepare early for the ANZ? I would like to hear your thoughts about the course and the condions you played in.Good luck for this week ..hope to see you that leaderboard this week...you always look sensational with 5 under"

Sarah's answer: "Hi Mark, yeah it is never a good feeling to miss the cut. I did head straight up to Qld to get some practice in – but it has been very wet up here. I’m hoping I can get to the range today. Kingston Heath was spectacular. I feel really proud that we prepare such great courses for when our international guests come to Australia to play. On Thursday, whilst I was lucky enough not to have to play in the rain, the winds did come up that afternoon and it made the course a lot harder than the practice rounds I had played. Friday was just a struggle, but I spent an hour or so with my coach after play and I am hoping to play much better at the ANZ Ladies Masters on the Gold Coast. Cheers Sarah."

From Phil: "Hi Sarah,::Although we've not meet, you have a very large fan base in the Greenway family We have been watching your play with no small amount of pride. Can't wait to see your progress on the tour this year. Give my regards to your dad for me please.::Kindest Regards.::Phil Greenway"

Sarah's answer: "Hi Phil and the Greenway family, thank you so much for dropping me a line. I’ll be doing my best to have a great year this year. I will say hi to dad too! Cheers Sarah."

From Mark: "Hi Sarah....I guess you are feeling a bit down having missed the cut...if its any consolation to you after watching you play out at oatlands last week I was inspired to shoot 40 points at my home track....I am sure your form will turnaround and you will be shooting some low numbers....here's hoping!!!You certainly make 5 under clothing look sensational...best of luck Sarah for the ANZ...cheers Mark"

Sarah's answer: "Hi Mark, it is always disappointing to miss the cut. Although I am always pleased to hear about golfers having great scores – well done on your 40 points : ) I love the five under product so thank you for the compliment. I will be trying to feature on the leader board at the ANZ Ladies Masters. Cheers Sarah."

From Craig: "Hi Sarah, Congratulations on making the USLPGA Tour! Can't wait to see you play and win Rookie of the Year!!::A fan "fore"ver!::Craig::Denton, TX"

Sarah's answer: "Hi Craig, I am very excited to be playing on the LPGA tour this year. It is really nice to learn I already have a fan there! : ) Cheers Sarah. "

From Mark: "Hi Sarah.....It was great to follow your play out at oatlands on Friday and Sunday...I could feel your frustration with the slow pace of the greens...nice birdies on 4 and 7 however!!!I admired your patient demeanor during Fridays round...how did you assess your round?? Can't make it down to Kingston Heath but will be eagerly watching the coverage on the ABC.I also wanted to say you look great on the course...all the best Sarah."

Sarah's answer: "Hi Mark, thank you. The NSW Open was a great warm up for me. Thanks for coming to watch, that’s great! I was not too concerned when I was out on the course. I haven’t played a lot of competition golf since Q school, so it was good to get back into competition and assess where my golf was at in preparation for the MFS Australian Women’s open this week. I’m hoping you will see me on the leader board in the ABC coverage. : ) It is important to me to look good when I play, so thank you for the compliment. I wear 5 Under gear and it is fantastic.. cheers Sarah."

From Peter: " Hi i saw you play today at Oatlands with the NSW open u looked very tired was it from the heat belting down , can you recover and play some super golf soon ?it sure was a hot hot day and it wasnt your normal game ah well next time good luck"

Sarah's answer: "Hi Peter, thank you for coming out to Oatlands to watch the NSW Open. Thank you also for taking some time to follow me. No I wasn’t tired and I didn’t think the heat was too bad. After the US Q School, I had a bit of a break and I am working myself back into my game now. I was really pleased with how I was striking the ball tee to green and a little frustrated that I couldn’t seem to buy a putt. My focus shifts to Kingston Heath now for the MFS Australian Women’s Open. I’ll be doing my best to show same great form there. Thanks again. Cheers. "

From Harry: "Have you ever got a hole in one? If so, where and how did you feel?"

Sarah's answer: "Yes I have actually. When I was 17 I played in the Riversdale Cup a pro tournament here in Australia. On the first hole on the first day I picked up my seven iron and bang I hit a good shot and it went straight in the hole. Its a funny story actually as on the second day my boyfriend of the time said to me I bet you cant do it again and I laughed and said "bet I can" and teed off and hit a wobbly one which also was a hole in one. I have had four in total and this year as a proffesional I hit one on a par three signature hole with my five iron and it went straight in. I was so amazed."
