Press Conference
Q. Ben, obviously you and the team circled this week as a big event. Do you go into it kind of looking at it as a chance to reset the rest of the season, especially with a new player in the lineup?
BYEONG HUN AN: Yeah. Even before the new player, we always said, hey, this is a great opportunity. This is our home event. We saw what it was like in Australia, South Africa, Mexico, the atmosphere. Everything was great. We do have a bit of pressure because I've seen them all play well in the home event. I'm really looking forward to this event.
Also, it'll be nice to kind of change the momentum a little bit because we've been struggling this year. I totally understand because I'm struggling a little bit, but we're all rookies to the league.
But this week, hopefully we can turn everything around, and we've got a few more weeks ahead of us, and hopefully we can keep this momentum going. We've been always looking forward to this, and with a new player, as well. He's a local KPGA player. He's No. 1 in the Genesis point list, so there will be a lot of fans out here. Hopefully we can turn things around and perform and show some great golf.
Q. What can you tell us about the course, and do you feel like it plays to the strengths of your team?
BYEONG HUN AN: It helps because it's a very typical Korean grass, I call it. They play a lot of KPGA events and other Korean golf courses on very similar grass, which I think is a big help to get to know the golf courses because everyone else, we kind of hit the same spot, the same spot on the greens and the fairways. But when it comes to seeing the numbers, the chipping around the greens and stuff, I think it'll be an advantage for hopefully me, as well.
I think this Korean type golf course will help the other teammates, as well. That's why we've been talking about this year, saying hey, this is it. This is a moment to turn things around.
I think we have a good advantage since being at home because different type of grass definitely makes it tougher for everyone else.
