January 17, 2019
Lake Buena Vista, Florida
Q. So first round of the year, are you pleased?
ARIYA JUTANUGARN: Actually, I'm so nervous. I didn't play golf for so long. I have a new caddie. So everything is so new. After a while, I realized I have to play golf. So I'm getting better.
Q. How did you and your caddie get along?
ARIYA JUTANUGARN: Pretty good. He did a good job. He keeps me calm and really positive, really good attitude.
Q. In this sort of a format, it doesn't appear -- it's supposed to be more relaxed. I'm surprised you were more nervous.
ARIYA JUTANUGARN: Because I didn't play for so long, especially play with them, I feel upset. He hit like 60 yards past me. Every hole he has a chance to make eagle, and I thought, maybe I'm not that good.
Q. Which one hit it 60 yards past you?
ARIYA JUTANUGARN: Actually, Josh.
Q. Josh Beckett?
ARIYA JUTANUGARN: Yeah.
Q. Now, did you know who they were prior to playing with them?
ARIYA JUTANUGARN: I didn't know, but I know they are baseball players. I know both of them are really famous. And nobody asked me for an autograph. They all asked them.
Q. Really?
ARIYA JUTANUGARN: Asked them for autographs and pictures. Nobody wants me.
Q. Did you guys talk? Did you talk to them while you were playing?
ARIYA JUTANUGARN: Yeah, I talked to them -- what's his name?
Q. Josh and Kevin.
ARIYA JUTANUGARN: Kevin is so nice. He keeps talking to me the whole time. He's so nice.
Q. Sounds like a fun day.
ARIYA JUTANUGARN: So much fun, yeah.
