Patty Tavatanakit and Atthaya Thitikul 2024 Open Championship Round 1

yeah no attire anymore just Gino well there you go I wonder why you'll know you'll know well I I can only assume it it happens like tidas Aur now is known just as Jasmine and so the Tai players have nicknames when she's grown up all her friends they call her Gino so maybe playing predominant in the US it's just easier maybe than atire fair enough she's still a great player whatever she's called she's brilliant played with her a few times yeah like roning Yin one of those that went to world number one last year on the two PS would be good now for par Patty T oh that was a beautifully hold putt there absolutely gorgeous now tanic it real ticklish one this down the hill little right to left you got to be brave if you want to hold it and she was very nice steady here she goes the world number 22 the wind was going to be the issue I think that might change as the week goes on rain may be back in the forecast we watch tial for birdie here at seven yes very good from Gino arrived here late Monday evening and it was absolutely pouring with rain and and uh they've had bit of unsettled weather Patty tanit at the 7th for a birdie was out walking the golf course on Tuesday and the Squall came through as by the wind it's pretty chilly the temperature isn't particularly low it's just as you say that cold wind Patty tavatanakit for a share of second big Resurgence for Patty T this year and a victory at home in Thailand first LPGA title since winning the Chevron Championship it's the windiest part of this golf course as well the most exposed Patty t a tanate for her par less daylight because we're a little later in uh the year than we've played opens here at St Andrews before usually it would be the first Sunday in August for example less daylight so those who began on 10 get the most extreme conditions but let's face it it was it's tough everywhere here today and that's a good solid par for Patty tatut every head Shaker here is Gino titun this for birdie at the 10th everyone calls her Gino that's her nickname but now she's uh going by it officially on the leaderboard you'll see it Deuce came at the 12th back amidst the gorse Patty tatan it stay out of the bunkers and avoid the gorsse and stay left that's FR rler told me when play here in 2021 those three things you plent got plent room behind it yeah just get on the yeah okay I'm starting at the the tower left Ed yeah you can almost start at the crane I mean yeah all right Shadows back a bit please thank you 90 shot what's that 90 shot yeah perfect evening at that Tower left really have to commit to your start lines here trust that the wind will take it say it worked pretty well the rest of the week always good to check yeah 11 here's Patty T it's over towards the the seventh but it's fine St Andrews you feel something here that you don't usually feel at most places poot here for tabat tanut at the 11th so that's going to be another bogey recorded there in a hole that's just been so difficult today but this was the green that they would been most concerned about with the strength of the wind today cuz it's so Patty to have a tanet for a birdie at the Third 13th Patty spent a few days in Edinburgh with her mom and they're going to go sightseeing in London after this week so it's been a nice trip did you tell her all your favorites it's also possible what they tell the am on the first tea is a little they say they told you to the best in the world when they get here W it's just an amazing Place really no matter if you're new to the game or you've been playing it your whole life Patty tavatanakit to get to two under three birdies two Bogies for Patty just think about 11 years ago and how not disappointed today in difficult conditions you can tell the wind isn't what was earlier what it was was getting close to unplayable at some moments gusting upwards of 40 close to 50 m hour the temperature is dropping you still have these just amazing scenes that we've grown to love over the years PTY tavat tanut her second at the 17th climbing the ridge and a chance and a birdie at the second toughest hole that'd be just the seventh of the day this is a moment to go at the 17th Patty tat tanit for a birdie gets set a two under par the wind not quite as strong as it was earlier second shot at the 18th could we say 18th slir tanut it's definitely the place that a lot of people aim is up the left towards that first T it's such a wide Fairway there plenty of room and lots of different ways Patty tavat tanut at the 18th this for back-to-back birdies and a 16 9 we've seen players not hit this butt firmly enough oh go nicely done perfect speed good line and Patty tavatanakit finishes in style three birdies in her last six and one off the lead at the moment Charlie has a chance to take the lead out right
