Q. Ludvig, what are your final thoughts on your round today?
LUDVIG ÅBERG: Yeah, obviously really disappointed. I felt like I was striking it okay early on. Got away with a few things, especially No. 4, kind of left miss.
But overall pleased with the week. Obviously today the back nine was not good, but that's the way it goes sometimes.
Q. What did you feel on 11 and then on 12? Did you feel like it spiraled a little bit there?
LUDVIG ÅBERG: Yeah, for sure. It got away from me quick there. Yeah, it was just poor swings. I felt like I've had that sort of 7-wood right miss a few times this week, on No. 4 especially twice, and it came up on 11 as well.
Then tried to press a little bit on 12, hitting driver, where sometimes you can play 3-wood a little short of that bunker.
Yeah, obviously really disappointed. I would have loved to be standing where Cameron is standing right now. But overall I still felt like I saw some nice things in my game this beak.
Q. If 11 goes a little differently, are you saying you would have laid back on 12?
LUDVIG ÅBERG: I don't know, maybe. We had sort of a game plan as driver would be an option, and today obviously the wind was a little bit different from what we've had, and it was a good wind for it.
But yeah, it was a poor swing, a really poor swing, and it definitely stings a little bit.
Q. You mentioned yesterday you weren't afraid of thinking ahead and thinking about winning and everything. What was your process like overnight and how nervous were you from the front nine into the back?
LUDVIG ÅBERG: Yeah, you're always going to feel nerves. Definitely felt nerves this morning, I felt nerves yesterday and I felt nerves on Thursday and Friday as well.
I think the main thing for me is I think about winning, but I try not to get ahead of myself when I'm playing golf. I think the front nine we handled quite well. I felt like we handled it to the point where it definitely could have been few shots better here and there. It was just a disappointing back nine, and hopefully I'll do a little bit better next time.
Q. You said sometimes when you're nervous you rush. Did you feel that at all at points today?
LUDVIG ÅBERG: Yeah, I think so. I think so. I definitely felt a little bit fast at times. I would imagine if I look at those swings on sort of 11, 12, they probably were quick swings. Takeaway got really fast and then the rest of it kind of spirals from there. That's something that I should have been aware of, now looking back. But yeah, that's the way it goes.
Q. I know there's still time to process what happened today, but what do you think is the biggest thing you can take away from today into the future?
LUDVIG ÅBERG: Yeah, I think obviously the biggest thing that I take away is that I feel like I'm playing nice golf. I'm playing golf to the point where I feel like I can contend in big tournaments. Obviously a good finish last week and still a top-5 finish this week. Overall I feel like I'm playing good golf, which is really nice. It's nice to see on a hard golf course last week, hard golf course this week. That makes me excited.
Obviously I would have loved a different back nine outcome today, but looking at the grand scheme of things, I'm pleased with my golf game.
Q. What was it like playing with Michael today in the final round?
LUDVIG ÅBERG: Yeah, it was fun. It was fun. Obviously none of us played well. He got off to kind of a slow start after 4 and then it was kind of weird for him, I guess, trying to press a little bit and trying to get back into it.
Yeah, he's a good friend of mine, and I'm sure we're going to be playing a few more of these in our careers.
Q. I know they were different clubs, but was 12 in any way an overcorrection after what happened on 11?
LUDVIG ÅBERG: I don't know. I wouldn't say so. In my opinion, it was probably just a really fast swing. I got really quick on it, and all of a sudden it's a poor flaw of mine in my golf game. It kind of ties in together with all of it.
That's my learning from those two holes.
