Prior to 2015, Yani Tseng has played the Honda LPGA Thailand seven times and seven times she has finished in the top-7 including back-to-back wins in 2011 and 2012.
“I always love here,” Tseng said. “I have so many friends out here and the fans out here always give me great support. I feel like coming back here always start of the season and I feel fresh and give me good energy. We play on this great golf course. I think it kind of suits my game. It’s good for the long hitter out here.”
Tseng was paired today with Thailand native Ariya Jutanugarn and sees a lot of herself in the young Thai golfer.
“I feel like when I watch her play I feel like that’s how I play when I was young,” Tseng said. “Just grip and hit it. Don’t really worry about it. I give my 100% every shot. If I pitch it right, I go there to save my shot. I think that’s how golf should be. I feel I just worry too much out there. I might actually learn something from her. Very happy to play with her. She kind of give me good motivation. She hits great shot out there and makes good putt, and that makes me feel like I want to catch her. “
