Hannah Green shared some valuable advice for young players after winning the 2024 HSBC Women's World Championship. The Australian golfer won the fourth LPGA Tour event of her career last week.

She registered a one-stroke victory over Celine Boutier at the LPGA Tour event that concluded on Sunday, March 3. During the press conference, Hannah Green reflected on her incredible victory. She shared some helpful tips for young golfers to learn from her experience.

Speaking about her victory, Green said:

"I think you just have to enjoy the sport. It can be one that doesn't give you much success straight away. Even though I've had four wins on the LPGA, I think this is now my 11th worldwide. But there are so many hard moments in golf. Celine played amazing today but she didn't end up having the trophy on her hands but she still should be really proud of herself for how she performed under pressure.
"So you got to take these highs when they come because it doesn't always come. And golf can be a lonely sport sometimes. But I feel like that's what I've been really good about the last couple years and having the right people around me to support me. And there's so many of us Aussies on tour now. It's nice that we get to travel together and have dinner. Just have good friendship while we're out playing cause some weeks can be longer than others for sure," she added. (6:04-6:58)
