Q. So take us through the week, what a week.

MADELENE SAGSTROM: Yeah, I'm very pleased. The last two days were really tough. So very pleased.

I've always had a goal and a dream to play good at a windy British Open, so I think this was it. It's not all there but it's in the right direction.

Q. It only happens once a year, so adapting to this, learning from this, and then is there things that you can take from here that you can use on other golf courses and things that you have to forget?

MADELENE SAGSTROM: Of course, there's stuff that you only need for this week. I've been preparing for both last week and this week for a while now since we play it so little. Just knowing that I did good preparation in advance with the courses that I had to do it was good.

But something like putting, something like short game, bunker shots, is something that you don't forget. You want to keep those momentums, hitting good drives. But then you're probably not going to bounce it 50 yards short of the green when you go play other courses. But it's fun. It's a fun game. It's different.

Q. Looking at the last major of the season, you come in playing good at major, do you feel like you're a majors player or do you think you excel at majors?

MADELENE SAGSTROM: I would start saying so after last year. I think last year, I really started picking up my major game, both last year and the year before. This year has been more consistent for me overall, so that's been the biggest change in my game.

I've played well more tournaments, not just having one here and there. It's been very consistent. Very pleased with where my game is heading. Obviously you're hoping you play great at everything, but playing good in majors is a little extra bonus.

Q. Any plans for now?

MADELENE SAGSTROM: Canada will be my next tournament. I have a couple weeks off. Looking forward to some rest.
