“Honestly I love Asterisk. I would love to be friends with her,” Malixi said. “That’s why I just kind of like kept on talking to her. Even those small talks … Developing a relationship with her has been so awesome. She’s just a great player and a great person as well.” “Honestly I just wanted to play good golf. That’s it,” Malixi said about her expectations for the year. “I wasn’t expecting to win the Australian Master of Amateurs in January and then win U.S. Girls’ last month and then this one. I was so surprised. Even though I was playing good golf, I was just not expecting it.”
