Okay we’d like to welcome the champion of the 2024 Genesis Invitational hii matama congratulations on a great Victory um with him is his agent interpreter Ken heray um he will be interpreting for hii as we go through this press conference uh I guess I’ll start with uh it’s obviously an amazing

Victory to win anytime on tour but to win the tournament that’s hosted by Tiger Woods it must make it extra special hii yeah you know to win in this tournament was one of my goals um ever since I became Pro and you know after tiger

Being um the host that goal became a lot more bigger um a little disappointed that I wasn’t able to take a picture with tiger today and just before we take some questions I’ll just ask you about the significance of it’s your ninth Victory and you surpass KJ toy break out

Of a TI as the winningest uh Asian player on the PGA tour just the significance of that and how meaningful that is to you yes you know um reaching nine win was one of my Big Goal you know passing kg Choy um after my eighth win um I’ve been

Struggling with my uh back injury there were a lot of times where I felt um you know I was never going to win again um you know I struggled you know reaching to top 10 but um I’m really happy that I was able to win today okay we’ll take

Some questions raise your hand and we’ll get you a microphone let’s start with Doug and then come to you Dan I thank you um first of all what club did you hit on 15 and and did you like the shot on 16 when it was in the air because it didn’t look like

It um on 15 you know t- shot second shot perfect shot so I had a great momentum right there uh on 15 um I hit it maybe like five yards to the right of my t-sh yeah on yeah 16 you know I hit it maybe like

Five yards to the right of of my target but you know um it it was you know um it became a good shot so you know all is good what club on 15 what iron did he hit six six yes and did did you think you could win today when you uh showed

Up at the course um to answer that question no um you know I was you know not feeling comfortable with my boss striking so I was kind of thinking you know hey I’m going to have some couple you know uh Miss shot this uh today but maybe that kind of worked out

Okay we’ll go over to Dan on this side 62 is just one shot off the course record it was the best round of the day by three shots um to shoot 30 on the back nine where where does this rank among the best rounds that you’ve played in your career

Um you know majority of the time when I rate my round it’s usually my boss striking um today was a okay round but I chipped and Putt pretty well today so um you know that’s something um that gives me I’m a a good uh uh what’s it momentum so I

Think that really helped this uh today today okay we’ll go to Claire in the front and then come back to Jeff how are you going to celebrate this win uh I already had a dinner plan tonight so I I think that dinner plan’s going to be

Great okay we’ll go to Jeff over here on the left uh Hadi how much have your back issues uh made it difficult to work on your short game uh and also uh um uh first of all to clear uh the information it’s been my neck that’s

Been um hurting and yeah it’s been it’s it’s been really um something that’s been bothering um for a long time um but uh since uh the start of this year um uh it’s been getting better A lot better there’s no uh it’s stressfree when I’m sleeping too so I think um I

Had this feeling of you know I can do something special uh maybe this year and you said the warmup today was just okay uh when you warm up does that normally tell you kind of how the day is going to go or does sometimes it um go the other

Way from the driving range to the Course um so I think a lot of times the morning um practice doesn’t really relate to the actual round but I’ve been striking pretty good this morning but on the first te I hit probably the worst shot of this week so um yeah I can’t really

Tell okay we’ll go to James in the back right there heyi there was some talk on the broadcast of your ball on the on the side of 17 green that was oscillating a little bit I’m just wondering if you saw that when you were standing over the

Ball um what was the question again the there was some talk in the broadcast of your ball OS oscillating on the 17th green when you’re hitting your Chip Shot from the side of 17 um I’m wondering if you saw it if if he saw it oscillate

What do you mean by oscillating uh like move after his shot before when he was when he was addressing the shot I just noticed that so okay no no issue um and off of the 18th it was off of the 18th it was very uh there’s a very demonstrative celebration for you I’m

Wondering when was the last time that you uh had a fist pump quite quite that big yeah you know um Riv era is actually a very special place for me um I know the owner uh he’s Japanese I know him for a very long time so you know winning at a

Uh winning in Riviera um was something very special for me okay go right in the middle Chris hii you’re you’re on an impressive list of winners who have one here and Augusta National I’m wondering uh do you see any similarities between the two courses and what does it mean to

Be a part of History like that um never thought about that before so I’ll think about it yeah okay looks like we’re done with questions one more Doug get a microphone to D do you remember uh when shigeki first started talking to you about the the record for most wins by an Asian

Player um you know shigeki won three times here and after you know um I won the fourth one uh shigeki told me you know hey you got to pass KJ Choy so you know I was very happy to do that and I’ll definitely definitely text uh Shi that I

Achieved this win uh this week are you a member here NOP why not um I don’t know about I’ll try all right on that note we’ll finish um Ken thank you so much for interpreting and uh appreciate your help hii congratulations enjoy the evening thanks everybody thank you
