Atthaya Thitikul said things were “just crazy in my mind right now,” after the Thai teenager won the JTBC Classic on Sunday for her first LPGA Tour title, three-putting for bogey on the second hole of a playoff to outlast Nanna Koerstz Madsen.
After Koerstz Madsen’s 15-foot bogey putt hit the edge of the cup and stayed out away, the 19-year-old Thitikul rolled her 10-foot par try close and holed out for the breakthrough victory.
At 19 years, 25 days, Thitikul is the youngest winner on the LPGA Tour since Brooke Henderson in the 2016 Portland Classic at 18 years, 9 months, 23 days.
The Thai player also has two victories on the Ladies European Tour.

สุดยอดเลยสาวน้อยคนนี้เธอคือสมบัติที่ล้ำค่าของคนชาติไทย awesome girl from Thailand
Yes, she is right it’s crazy things she didn’t expect she climbed from bottom to play off.
I was just checking on Jin Young Ko but she seems something couldn’t focus on second round also third round.
Congratulation Atthaya keep going as golfing like playingable without distract to other things.
That's her. Maybe the First Lady can.
เยี่ยมมากครับน้องจีน เชียร์มาตลอด
After watching Atthaya in Honda Thailand last year i knew she was a future star.
Followed her on the LET last year and she was just warming up for the LPGA.
Great attitude like all the Thai golfers and super proud for her.
Hope she dominates the tour along with her fellow Thai's
Wouldn't mind having some shares in her – a sponsors dream and great wardrobe!
I want some of her Zip up jackets ?
