(Reuters) - Suzann Pettersen has long relished the gruelling challenge at the U.S. Women's Open and once again she is using the psychological ploy of expecting "the worst" in this week's edition at Southampton in New York.

The 32-year-old Norwegian, an 11-times winner on the LPGA Tour, knows as well as anyone that grinding out pars and keeping errors to a minimum is the only recipe to possible success in the third women's major of the season.
