Closed his Saturday round with a bogey to fall into a tie for the lead at Brookline. Sunday should have a lot of drama.

His tee to green game - and around the green short game - have both improved significantly. He was booming teen shots past Dustin Johnson and even Rory this week.

If he handles the pressure and makes a few putts he can win today.

Scheffler, Rahm, Rory and the young, but uber talented Zalatoris will all be there to provide the competition. Minus 6 should get it done for the winner.

Announcers said Fitzpatrick has gained 10 yards on his driver. His cross handed chipping looks funky but it gets the job done. He still lists himself as a former NU student on his Instagram profile. Wonder if he'll wear purple on Sunday?

That average length increase is a little misleading IMO. He can now poke it well beyond 300 to the 330-350 range when the opportunity calls for it. And his length increase is through the bag. Makes everything about the game easier when you can hit an uphill 600+ yard par 5 in two. Or have a variety of wedges in hand to routine 450 yard par 4s.

Matt looks dialed in today, but Scheffler will be tough to beat.

He's got the lead going to the 18th hole now. Come on Matt!

Wow! What a golf ⛳️ shot by Matt! Holy smokes what an approach on 18th hole! Brilliant display today ala Johnny Miller years ago!
The true shot of a major champion. Zalatoris was a warrior, but Fitz deserved it after that incredible shot.

Boy has he had a rough year so far. Had a neck injury I heard, but he needs to get his game back in gear, especially for the Ryder Cup.
