Quick Quotes

Q. Honestly, your shots dropped all day. What else do you feel coming off the 18th after a well fought match with Rory?

JOAKIM LAGERGREN: This is a tough one to swallow. I really thought I had that out there today. Obviously posting minus 17 going into the clubhouse, could might as well been enough.

Played really good in the playoff as well. Hit a solid 5-iron down on the last play, but it got a horrendous bounce. It's a metre from being dead to the hole. So it's tough.

Q. Rory is capable of doing crazy things at crazy times, the eagle putt on 18, for example. But reflecting on the last year or two for yourself career-wise, it feels like you've made leaps and bounds.

JOAKIM LAGERGREN: Absolutely, yes. It feels like I'm definitely back and playing at a level where I want to play. A top 10 last week and then losing in playoff this week. So yeah, it feels like it's trending.
