Fitzpatrick’s win was a special victory


Matthew Fitzpatrick’s first Major title, at the 122nd US Open championship at the Country Club in Brookline, Massachusetts, last weekend was an overwhelmingly popular one.

The 27-year-old Englishman, who had seven victories on the European Tour (now the DP World Tour) but none in the United States, eclipsed Will Zalatoris and Scottie Scheffler by one stroke, having finished the gruelling test on six-under-par 274.
