During the press conference at the 2025 LIV Golf Singapore event on Saturday, March 15, after the second round, Niemann was asked about his little fan and their interaction. He candidly talked about the meeting, calling it "special" while also revealing the wristband she gave him.

Speaking of the meeting with the young fan, Niemann said:

"It was special. Normally on the first tee they have the little sharks where all the kids are standing on the side and one of them was trying to reach out to me because she had a wristband. Yeah, I told her to come over. Scott was there. She helped me out to bring her, and I met her. She gave me the wristband, and I will see if it's a lucky charm."

"I felt like they were pretty similar rounds. I hit it pretty similar. I took advantage on a few tees where I was hitting driver, and on the par-5s, I really took advantage on those. But I feel like I gave away two shots on 18, the first round and the second round.
"But the main difference was my putting. My putting was on today. I made good putts during the whole day. So yeah, that kept me in the round," he added.
