Quick Quotes

Q. All right, after the first round of the Honda LPGA Thailand, talk about how it went out there for you.

MORIYA JUTANUGARN: It's been fun. You know, like of course like when you starting to make putts and see balls go in it's even more fun.

But if anything, I just like I try to focus on like what I want to do, what I'm working on, and just, you know, like all I have to do this week just enjoying everything because we don't really play at home in our country as much as we want to.

So just want to kind of enjoy everything.

Q. What's it like to see all the fans here in Thailand support you?

MORIYA JUTANUGARN: It's so nice. You know, like every time coming back here we always had really, really good support from Thai fans. Now we even have more like international, like I saw a lot of Japanese, Koreans. You know, that's mean like they love LPGA to always coming back here.

Q. And talk about the course a little bit. There is a lot of the bumps and ridges on the greens. Talk about how tricky it is with some of the pins out here.

MORIYA JUTANUGARN: This course is always one of the very, very good golf courses we play the whole year, and the green is rolling very nice this week.

It's quite tricky, like a lot of slope, but sometimes you just have to be out there and you just like be patient and when the ball go in, so when you had a chance, you know.

Q. You had a win last year. How would you describe your year as a whole last year?

MORIYA JUTANUGARN: Last year is another year like working on lots of things. You know, like sometimes works come out well and sometimes it's not quite.

But I think it's just part of the game and you just kind of have to like deal with it and like just -- actually keep me like excited like to just go out and like working on something every day.

Q. And last question: Big year, International Crown later in the year. What are you looking forward to most in 2025?

MORIYA JUTANUGARN: Well, of course International Crown is one of the most fun event for us. Like we don't really get to play as a team and get together like four players in one country. It's always one of our really, really good fun one.

I mean, of course I'm sure like everyone will expect -- I mean, like hopefully we get to play, but, yeah, like whatever happening, I just kind of take it.
