Fitzpatrick is a champion again at The Country Club, this time with the biggest trophy.

A winner of the U.S. amateur title. The winner of the U.S. Open.

In a three-way battle at Brookline that came down to the wire, Fitzpatrick seized control with a great break and an even better shot on the 15th hole. He made a crucial par from the fairway on the 18th.

Will Zalatoris dropped to his knees when his 15-foot putt on the 18th just slid by the left side of the cup gave him victory. Zalatoris was a runner-up in two of the last three majors.

The Masters champion didn't recover from back-to-back bogeys. On the 18th, he had a chance to make a 25-footer, but he missed.

Fitzpatrick became the second man to win both the U.S. Open and the U.S. Amateur on the same course. She won the U.S. Women's Open and the U.S. Women'sAmateur.

Along with the $3.15 million in prize money, Fitzpatrick had a gold medal around his neck.

This was Fitzpatrick's first time in the US, and he won for the eighth time worldwide.

Fitzpatrick won the membership at The Bear's Club in Florida at the beginning of the year.

He abused me at the beginning of the year. He said it was finally done. Fitzpatrick said that he was happy for winning in the US.

Fitzpatrick told Jack that he won a second time.
