Q. Bryson, thanks for joining us. A really lovely bogey-free 65 to finish the 149th Open. Do you feel like you just figured out Royal St Georges today?
BRYSON DeCHAMBEAU: Yeah. Again, the conditions were pretty mild out there. There wasn't too much wind. It's sunny. I like the sun with a small amount of wind. I play well. I was hitting the fairway today a lot and felt fstpretty comfortable with the irons from 150, 130, 140 out. It struck some really nice iron shots in there and gave myself a lot of opportunities today, which I was proud of that fact.
Q. Hi, Bryson. A tough start to the week, but let's say yesterday and today you created plenty of chances, and especially today you seemed to be hitting sublime shots all over the course. You must be happy -- even though overall the score wasn't what you wanted, you must be happy finishing in that way.
BRYSON DeCHAMBEAU: Yeah, absolutely. Finishing 5-under is a good feat given it's the Sunday of an Open Championship, and I think that I'll learn a lot from this going into next year. It's one of those things that for me it's going to take time probably to learn the whole ins and outs of Open golf. I don't think I'll ever figure it out, but hopefully one year I can get some of the right breaks going for me and hitting really good with all facets of my game and give myself a great chance to win an Open Championship.
Q. Did you change any approach to the way you were playing from, let's say, Thursday to today. You seem to be kind of playing more economics than accounting today. It seemed to be more risk mitigation than kind of profit maximization, I would say.
BRYSON DeCHAMBEAU: Yeah, absolutely. I tried to do that all week. There was a few times where the driver got me into a few bad places, and then obviously I had a couple of 4-irons get me into bad places yesterday. It's difficult out here. You've got to really manage yourself and make sure you're hitting it right parts of the fairway.
It's one of those things that, as time goes on, I'll keep learning more and more about Open Championship style golf, and one day again hopefully I can hold up the Claret Jug. That would be awesome. One of those things I'll keep learning over the course of time, but definitely was more of an accountant today.
