PGA Tour: Matthew Fitzpatrick Wins RBC Heritage in Playoff
Fitzpatrick Seizes Victory over Jordan Spieth
Hilton Head Island, South Carolina - April 17, 2023
Matthew Fitzpatrick emerged victorious from a thrilling playoff at the RBC Heritage on Sunday, edging out Jordan Spieth after a dramatic final round at Hilton Head Island.
The tournament went down to the wire, with Fitzpatrick and Spieth finishing regulation play tied at 13-under-par. In the playoff, Fitzpatrick's second shot landed just inches from the hole, setting up an easy putt for victory.
Fitzpatrick's triumph marks his first PGA Tour win since the 2022 US Open, and it comes at a time when he is showing excellent form ahead of this month's Masters Tournament.
Spieth, who led for much of the tournament, will have to settle for second place, but he can take solace in the fact that he has regained some of his previous brilliance after a challenging few years on the PGA Tour.
The RBC Heritage is a prestigious event on the PGA Tour schedule, and Fitzpatrick's victory is sure to boost his confidence going forward. He will now head to Augusta National as one of the favorites to don the Green Jacket.
