Matt Fitzpatrick and brother Alex make history with dramatic Zurich Classic win

The pair made history as the first brothers to claim a PGA Tour title, sealing a dramatic one-shot victory with a birdie on the 18th. The win marked Matt's third of 2026.

The world No. 3 has been in outstanding form in recent months, having lost in a play-off at The Players Championship before going on to win both the Valspar Championship and the RBC Heritage, with a top-20 finish at The Masters in between.

This latest success makes Matt the first English player to record three or more PGA Tour victories in a single season and lifts him to the top of the 2026 FedExCup standings.

Alex has also impressed this year, claiming his maiden DP World Tour title at the Hero Indian Open in March.

Their victory in New Orleans secures the 27-year-old a PGA Tour exemption through to 2028, along with places in the next four signature events, as well as spots in the 2026 PGA Championship and the 2027 Players Championship.

"It won't sink in yet. It's as good as it gets," Alex Fitzpatrick told Sky Sports. "It's amazing to be here with him [Matt], mum and dad. A lot of hard work; I can't believe we've done it."

"It was a struggle," Matt Fitzpatrick said. "I was doing absolutely zero to help him [Alex]. Apart from the putt on 15, I wasn't really providing much support.

"He was fantastic on that back nine. As he was yesterday as well.

"I said 'just give us a chance at the last', and to hit a bunker shot like that, it was nice to give him an easy tap in there."
