Quick Quotes

Q. All right, here with Jeeno after her final round at the Buick LPGA Shanghai. Jeeno, just take us through the round today. Look like a Top 5 finish for you.

JEENO THITIKUL: Yeah, to be honest, I'm not really feel confident with my irons this week. I mean, like I struggling with the irons. And then also that's why I think I miss a lot of chances to make it closer to make a birdie.

And also like I mean, Top 5, Top 10, which is really good, amazing round for me as well. Like I've been in contention for week in, week out, which is really nice.

Just hoping for a nicer time. You know, like starting with no confident but getting to Top 5 is what I could can make it better than now.

Q. Heading into Korea, what kind of confidence can this give you, especially starting off the fall Asia Swing?

JEENO THITIKUL: I always love Asian Swing. All good food, good vibes, no cut line for us. And then, you know, we can be aggressive all the time.

For Korea, I think the weather going to be challenging for me because like I'm not used to the cold weather much.

Hopefully if it's not that cold should be good for me. I still have a lot of work to work on as well. My irons and also my short game. Just a lot of stuff to do.

Q. It's no secret how good of friends you and Ronni are. Looking like she is going to win this one in her home country. After sharing the victory at the Dow Championship earlier this year, how excited are you for her to win in her country?

JEENO THITIKUL: I just remember early of the year in (indiscernible) I didn't play but she played, and just take me. I was so nervous and like more expectation on herself playing in front of her home country, and then also spectators.

And then she's just like did I get the same way as well? Like I wasn't expecting all the result to turn out to be good. I'm just like, yeah. Hell yeah. Of course. I'm so proud of her. Seemed like she overcome it well and then also handle it well. You know, all the fans came out for cheering here.

As a friend I was proud of her every single day that she did it out there.
