Fitzpatrick brothers win Zurich Classic

Fitzpatrick brothers win Zurich Classic

Matt and Alex Fitzpatrick became the first brothers to win the Zurich Classic of New Orleans after a dramatic final-round performance on Sunday.

The English pair finished at 25-under par, edging out their closest rivals by a single stroke in the alternate-shot format.

The victory is particularly significant for Alex, as it grants him a full PGA Tour exemption for the next two seasons.

The brothers, who grew up practicing together in Sheffield, described the win as an emotional milestone for their family.
