Quick Quotes

Q. We've been doing a story on a fan club that's been following you every hole for six years out here at THE PLAYERS. Are you aware of them?

SI WOO KIM: Yeah, I saw them maybe after I won. I saw them, and every time they're loading for me and following every hole, so it helps me a lot.

Q. So you appreciate that from them, and do you notice the different outfits?

SI WOO KIM: Yeah, I saw them bring my face tee shirts, so it's just funny. I think that almost four, five years been doing that. Just hopefully they get new shirts.

Q. As someone who won here and had the first big win of their career, I'm wondering how winning THE PLAYERS changes your outlook as a pro?

SI WOO KIM: Yeah, it's a huge win, especially that was my second year, so that helps me a lot. Then the next five years I can get free exempt, and I can get like PLAYERS locker room, which is cool.

Yeah, it was a huge win for me, and always I'd love to win here.

Q. Do you feel like your career changed in a significant way? Do you feel like you arrived or your life changed after the victory?

SI WOO KIM: Yeah, I think so because I was just here surviving after the first year. I won the first year, but still, I have to worry about survive here, and this TOUR is not easy to survive every year.

That helps me like five years, so I can get like free roll, and that helps me huge. I get in like three years all the majors. That's still huge. I still want to more win this tournament.
