JEUNGHUN WANG: I don't know, I just tried to get a European Tour card to go to Morocco and I luckily win that tournament. I got a lot of confidence from there, so I think the reason I can win Mauritius is all confidence. I have a lot of confidence from Morocco. No pressure, too, in Mauritius. I think that was the key to win back-to-back. Q. When you think back now, this year, from the last two, three years of The Asian Tour, what has been the big change in your game that has made you who you are today? JEUNGHUN WANG: I don't know, actually I think my skills are all the same. I think just mental and a lot of experience, and too, a lot of tournaments.

I think I learned from them. I learned a lot from them, like chipping skills, putting skills, too. So that was a really great experience for me. Q. Next year, when do you start again, and do you raise the bar a bit higher in terms of your goals, what you're going to try to achieve? JEUNGHUN WANG: Of course I want to become better.
