Press Conference


THE MODERATOR: Firstly, talk about your game.

JEENO THITIKUL: Oh, yeah, like I said on the TV earlier, I did hit like 18 green, so I think that's make me, you know, like having a bogey-free on this round and pretty like consistent-wise today having an opportunities to making a birdie on each hole.

Q. After two rounds your score is not really outstanding. What kind of changes that makes you makes your score today pretty good?

JEENO THITIKUL: I mean, I'm not -- I don't think I'm doing anything special. I think it's just golf, where it's some of the day you play really good and some of the day you, you know, like not that fancy.

But I think 2-under par yesterday I really take it -- like every day under par I'll take it for the rest of the tournaments-wise.

I think yesterday I just had not a really good iron shots, so I think today I just have a better iron shots-wise, which is giving me more opportunities than yesterday.

Q. Hi, Jeeno. (Regarding being two shots off the lead - being aggressive.)

JEENO THITIKUL: Yes, I mean, like, you know, I know I have been in contention for this week and also I've been in the final group for tomorrow, but, you know, this course is not that long and then it's really makable course. I don't think that -- I can't predict how the score is going to be like to be able to win the tournament, but I pretty sure it's going to be lower than this.

The best thing that I can do is just like being aggressive and then trying to make putts because I know that's all the players out there going to be, you know, and trying to make as much as I wanted to make, too.

Q. (Regarding LPGA Tour wins; second place finishes.) What can you learn from it?

JEENO THITIKUL: Take it just really good. It's just like people might value the winner and then people might remembering the winner, but I think for in my perspective I value every position the same.

I mean, like getting the win should be really good, but after you get the win you be the same as well.

So what I learning is the five win that I have on the LPGA is the past as well, so I don't like -- like I don't carry in my shoulder. I don't carry it in my head. If you told me I can get second in every tournaments in this year for the whole season, 30 something, I'll take it.

Q. Has Ronni taken you out to eat yet this week? If so, where?

JEENO THITIKUL: Yes, definitely three days in a row. Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. Monday and Tuesday -- no, Sunday and Monday we had the same. I don't know the name of the restaurant. I'm so sorry. But it's Chinese food. Like stirfry with pepper, the bell pepper.

And then the final like Tuesday is my favorite, it's fish pickles, in pickles. Yeah.
