Moriya Jutanugarn and Lydia Ko were ultimately undone with bogeys at the last Sunday, but they both left the Evian Championship eager to build on whats right with their games.Jutanugarn, 23, was looking to make history with her sister, Ariya, to become the first sisters in LPGA history to win major championships.

"I was thinking that Mamiko was one of the best short-game players I've played with, especially her putting.
