Taehee Lee (Kor) – Final round 71 (even-par), Total 275 (-9)

When I was on the course, I had strength, but when I finished, I felt really relieved.

Every hole was memorable. I think my birdie on the 14th hole was the turning point. I actually told my family not to come out today because of the dust and pollens out there but they still came to support. I am really happy.

I just focused on my game out there. I tried to think well. We just kept the game going. I am very happy to win such a big tournament. I am now going to aim for the KPGA Order of Merit title now.

After missing shots, I told myself that “This is Nam Seoul Country Club”. I was angry to miss shots out there but I managed to recover before going on to the next hole. I just wanted to make the putts.

My caddy helped me a lot out there. He’s like a brother to me and we practiced a lot together on this course. He is also a professional golfer but he didn’t qualify for this tournament. We told ourselves to stay focused out there.

Today is the most beautiful day of my life. It’s a moment that I will treasure forever. I am thinking of going to play on bigger Tours like the Asian and European Tours.

Janne Kaske (Fin) – Final round 71 (even-par), Total 275 (-9)

It looks like I was going to win it pretty easily at some point. But I started to make stupid mistakes and it looks like he was going to win it and then I was going to win. I think it switched about five times in the last hour.

I had a three-footer to win the tournament and he had like two putts from 10 feet to win. There’s just so much to talk about. We keep giving our chances away. We both could have won it. I hit a good drive on the third play-off hole but landed in a sandy divot.

It was a terrible lie and I couldn’t get a contact with it but Lee hit it nicely to birdie the hole and win the tournament. The eagle was definitely the turning point for me. I made a solid par putt from about 30 feet on the 18^th in regulation play to ensure I’m in the play-off.

It was like a surreal feeling, given the hole location today. It was good to give myself a chance but I don’t know what to say right now. We both had a chance. I can’t analyse this. It’s still a good result for me, my best result on the Asian Tour so far.

This should help me keep my card for next year as well. Obviously, I would love to win but my goal for this year was to keep my card so I’ll take the second-place finish. I am heading to Japan for the Diamond Cup next week.

Prom Meesawat (Tha) – Final round 68 (-3), Total 280 (-4)

I made a 40-footer for birdie on the third hole and that gave me a lot of confidence. I was just riding on the good momentum from there. I hit it close for the other birdies but it was difficult coming down the stretch, especially the last three holes.

I was prepared for it. I know this course and I know it was going to be tough coming back. I have been hitting the ball good all week actually. Just managed to make some putts today. I am really pleased with my result, it’s a second top-10 finish for me this season.

This should give me a little boost on the Order of Merit. I’m heading to Japan for the Diamond Cup so hoping to carrying on the good form. I have been playing well since winning the Asian Development Tour (ADT) event in Brunei last week.
