EVIAN, France (AFP) — The Evian Championship tees off by the lake in Evian with Nelly Korda chasing a third women’s major of the season and Grace Kim returning to the scene of her dramatic win last year.

Kim, who beat Jeeno Thitikul on the second playoff hole last year, said on Wednesday a first major title had given her added self-confidence.

“You know, golf can really humble you quite quickly, so in the times where it does get tough I think I do handle myself a lot better,” the 25-year-old Korean-Australian told reporters.

Last year, Kim chipped in from under a tree off the 18th green to save herself on the first playoff hole. Organizers have put in a little blue plaque to commemorate the shot.

“I saw it for the first time yesterday and it was really cool,” she said.

“And hearing those people that come to play Evian and trying it out themselves, yeah, kind of makes me feel nice about it,” she added.

Last year, Thitikul missed a short putt on the 18th in regulation that would have clinched her first major. Then Kim chipped in to stay alive in the playoff and then holed an eagle putt to win as the pair played the 18th again.
