WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) Ryan Fox arrived back in New Zealand on Friday after carrying the British Open championship -winner's claret jug from one side of the world to the other, hankering for some sleep and a gourmet pie.Fox was embraced at Auckland airport by his father, former All Blacks rugby player Grant Fox, as he arrived with his wife Anneke and two children. Fox birdied the final hole at Royal Birkdale last Sunday for his first major win.Its good to be back, he said.A few hours later, media found the 39-year-old Fox at his local bakery, enjoying his favorite steak, bacon, jam and cheese pie. He hopes in coming days to able to show off his trophy to New Zealand, to get in some fishing and maybe a round of golf.But first, sleep. Fox has had a hectic schedule of travel and interviews since his win.I had a glass of wine, took a couple of sleeping pills and had more sleep last night than Ive had the last four nights. Its nice," Fox said. "Im sure jetlags going to get me and I feel like Im going to be pulled in every direction possible over the next 10 days or so were home. Its definitely nice to be home.Ive got the golf clubs. Well see how it goes over the next couple of days. Id like to catch up and play with some mates. I've had a look at the forecast and it doesnt look real good over the next little while. I dont want to play golf in the rain if I have to. But Id like to get out on the course."Fox hopes to be able to thank New Zealanders and others for their support.The supports been unbelievable, to be honest; I cant thank people enough," he said. Two-time US PGA Championship-winner Justin Thomas "reached out and said, remember all the little things because theyre great to draw back on when you really need it.Having someone who has gone through that winning a major, accomplishing some dreams and then going through some down times as well, Fox added. "I can imagine being able to draw on that is really important and a good nugget of advice.___AP golf: https://apnews.com/hub/golf
