Quick Quotes


Q. All right, joining be here today after the final round of the FM Championship Ariya Jutanugarn. You had the first hole-in-one of the week on No. 16. Can you give me your thought process of the shot and the club that you picked?

ARIYA JUTANUGARN: I think I had 118 and a little bit downwind maybe, and didn't pay attention about hit it close or anything because I've been having a tough week all week.

So didn't expect to like hit close, make birdie. Just feel like whatever -- can I start over?

Q. Yeah.

ARIYA JUTANUGARN: So I got 118, a little bit downwind and I hit gap wedge. You know, I've been struggle all day, all week and have a tough week, so I just make like two birdies today and my score is like even. So I told myself if I can finish under be nice, so I hit it pretty good and people clap.

I thought it's went in the hole, so that's it. Did I win anything?

Q. I don't believe you win anything this week.

ARIYA JUTANUGARN: No? Why I'm here? Why you need me?

Q. Is this your first hole-in-one on Tour?

ARIYA JUTANUGARN: No, it's not.

Q. How many hole-in-ones do you have on Tour?

ARIYA JUTANUGARN: It's my fourth one on Tour. I had in Thailand, China, Korea.

Q. Did you win things at those?

ARIYA JUTANUGARN: Yes, I won car twice. Yeah, you should get me something.

Q. We can't decide after you make a hole-in-one to get you something. We have to have decided that ahead of time?

ARIYA JUTANUGARN: That's okay. I can get something for myself.

Q. Yes, you can treat yourself. Even though you don't get a prize this week for the hole-in-one, every hole-in-one made on the LPGA Tour there is money donated to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital as part the CME Group Cares Challenge. We did not have one this week or last week, so how does it feel that because you made a hole-in-one money is going to go to St. Jude?

ARIYA JUTANUGARN: I just want to say thank you for doing that. It's means a lot for me and of course for all the girl.

St. Jude is foundation? What they doing?

Q. (Off microphone.) For the kids and they do research into like cancer science...

ARIYA JUTANUGARN: So CME pay?

Q. So CME donates money based on --

ARIYA JUTANUGARN: How much?

Q. I believe $25,000 every time an LPGA player makes a hole-in-one during a tournament. So before yours today they have donated $240,000 this year.

ARIYA JUTANUGARN: Oh, that's nice.
