Sergio Garcia remained upbeat despite seeing another major opportunity slip by in the 144th Open at St Andrews.

The 35-year-old world No 10 remains without a victory in one of the game's elite events despite being a regular contender.

His latest Open bid ended with a final-round 70, a score that left him 11 under and in a tie for sixth place.

Garcia said: "I would have loved to finish a couple better but I'm still happy with the week. I love this tournament, I love these crowds, I love these courses.

"I'm just going to keep giving myself chances until things happen and then hopefully I manage to win at least one of these.

"I would love to win a British Open but even if I don't, the experiences I've had at these championships, they've been amazing, and nobody can take that away from me."
