Englishman Matt Fitzpatrick won the U.S. Open, winning his first major on the same course where he took the U.S. Amateur title nine years earlier.
Matt Fitzpatrick of England is a champion again at The Country Club, this time with the grandest of trophies in golf.In a three-way battle at Brookline that came down to the wire, Fitzpatrick seized control with a great break and an even better shot on the 15th hole for a two-shot swing. He was just as clutch from a fairway bunker on the 18th that set up par for a two-under-par 68.
Matt Fitzpatrick reacts after making a putt on the 13th hole during the final round of the U.S. Open. “He gave me a bit of abuse at the start of the year. He said, ‘Finally. Congratulations for winning in the States,’“ Fitzpatrick said. Zalatoris again bounced back, taking on a tough pin at the par-three 16th to within seven feet for birdie to cut the lead to one shot. Both missed 12-foot birdie chances on the 17th, and then Fitzpatrick missed a fairway at the wrong time, pulling it left into a bunker with a steep patch of rough right in front of him.
That didn’t make Sunday any easier, a three-man race from the start when Jon Rahm and Rory McIlroy fell back and never rejoined the mix.Zalatoris, who lost in a playoff to Justin Thomas in the PGA Championship last month, recovered from two early bogeys. They were tied when Zalatoris made an 18-foot birdie putt on the short par-three 11th, and Fitzpatrick three-putted for bogey from the same range.
