Paula Creamer is once again lurking near the top of a major leaderboard, and her experience as the defending champion could make her a tournament favorite Sunday afternoon in the 2011 U.S. Women's Open at The Broadmoor.

Creamer is five shots out of the lead heading into the final two rounds, both of which the USGA will try to fit into one day in what has been an oft-interrupted, storm-delayed event.

Although she was tied for the lead after 36 holes, the tournament was interrupted by weather delays similar, but not equal to, this year's tournament.

While that obviously won't be the exact same road Creamer takes this year, she knows she can't control what those in front of her are doing.

"Like I keep saying, I want that trophy back," Creamer demanded. "I have two more days left. I can only control what I can do out there. I know there are some things that I can get better on, but I have a lot of confidence. I feel really positive out there. This is something t...
