The 22-year-old Jazz had earned the coveted spot after finishing tied-fourth at the season-opening Singapore Open in January.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"m_-2016862254926731993m_1367876538156456220font-calibri\">\u201cIt\u2019s great to be back in Carnoustie. My dad brought me here to watch Tiger Woods play The Open in 2007. We were amongst the spectators here when Padraig Harrington defeated Sergio Garcia to win that year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"m_-2016862254926731993m_1367876538156456220font-calibri\">\u201cMy dad plays an important role in my career. He was the one who brought me into the game when I was young. It\u2019s great to be back here with him and to have him watch me play in my first ever Major championship,\u201d said Jazz, a two-time Asian Tour winner.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"m_-2016862254926731993m_1367876538156456220font-calibri\">Jazz first played his way into the history books of the Asian Tour in 2010 when he became the youngest ever player to make the halfway cut at the 2010 Asian Tour International in Bangkok at the age of 14 years and 71 days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"m_-2016862254926731993m_1367876538156456220font-calibri\">Three weeks prior to his Major debut, Jazz clinched a sensational second victory at the Queen\u2019s Cup on home soil where he triumphed by four shots after firing five straight birdies from the 10th for a closing 67. &nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"m_-2016862254926731993m_1367876538156456220font-calibri\">The talented Thai went on to claim a joint runner-up finish at the Sarawak Championship in Malaysia the following week, thanks to a superb final round of a 64.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"m_-2016862254926731993m_1367876538156456220font-calibri\">\u201cAfter Sarawak, I took a few days off before coming here to practise. The weather was still pretty warm the last few days but it is getting colder now. The golf course is looking good. It\u2019s amazing to be able to play in such a big event. The course set-up is great.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"m_-2016862254926731993m_1367876538156456220font-calibri\">\u201cThe greens are firm and fast. It\u2019s going to play tough. It\u2019s been very overwhelming for me so far, playing in the first Major in my career this week. There are grand stands everywhere. I\u2019m nervous yet excited at the same time,\u201d Jazz added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"m_-2016862254926731993m_1367876538156456220font-calibri\">Jazz\u2019s breakthrough on the Asian Tour came at the 2017 Bangladesh Open. The victory was especially sweet for him as he finished outside the top-60 on the 2016 Order of Merit and missed the grade at the 2017 Qualifying School.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"m_-2016862254926731993m_1367876538156456220font-calibri\">Jazz will represent Thailand in the year\u2019s third Major championship alongside fellow debutant Danthai Boonma and 2013 Asian Tour Order of Merit champion Kiradech Aphibarnrat, who sits in 30th place on the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR) as the highest-ranked Thai player in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"m_-2016862254926731993m_1367876538156456220font-calibri\">Reigning Order of Merit champion Gavin Green of Malaysia will also feature in The 147th Open at Carnoustie alongside India\u2019s Anirban Lahiri, England\u2019s Matt Wallace, South African Shaun Norris and Japan\u2019s Masahiro Kawamura, all winners on the Asian Tour.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Young Thai Jazz Janewattananond hopes to cap a memorable return to Carnoustie by putting up a good showing in his debut appearance at The 147th Open which starts&nbsp;on Thursday.
