With a tournament-record, 15-under 57 in Four-ball in the third round, the Fitzpatricks led by four strokes entering Sunday’s Foursomes, so they didn’t make it easy on themselves in the finale. However, any angst that can be natural among siblings was eliminated when Matt’s escape from 35 yards in a greenside bunker came to rest just 14 inches from the hole for a tap-in birdie try at the par-5 18th. When Alex poured it in to seal a 1-under 71, he became the third first-time winner on the PGA TOUR this season.
Matt and Alex Fitzpatrick birdie 72nd hole to win Zurich Classic
Both Fitzpatricks had won in their most recent starts on their primary circuits – Matt at the RBC Heritage last week and Alex at the Hero Indian Open almost a month ago. While Matt already is exempt into all Signature Events and majors this season, Alex had not been eligible for any. That changes immediately as he’s in all four remaining Signature Events as well as the PGA Championship. His exemption as a PGA TOUR member will extend through 2028. Matt’s grows to the maximum of five years through 2031. And as the PGA TOUR's first three-time winner this season, Matt moves to No. 1 in the FedExCup standings.
The partnership of Alex Smalley and Hayden Springer led outright with an opening, 14-under 58 in Four-ball, and again after a 2-under 70 in Friday’s Foursomes, but they settled for a share of runner-up honors with Kristoffer Reitan and Kris Ventura. The Norwegian connection closed with a field-low-tying, 7-under 65 that included three eagles.
The defending champions, Ben Griffin and Andrew Novak, checked up in a three-way share of 10th place, five shots back of the champs. Thirty-five of the 74 teams survived the 36-hole cut of low 33 and ties.
