[Comment from Sayaka Takahashi]
"Thank you so much for all your support. I never expected to make an eagle on the final 18th hole, so it was a dramatic turn of events that surprised even me. I was able to win a playoff for the first time after struggling in them previously, which has given me a great deal of confidence.
Along with my favorite apparel, I was able to stick to my own style of play until the very end. Keeping this momentum going, I will stay focused and do my best from the next tournament onward, aiming for multiple wins this season!"
