Matt Fitzpatrick says how he really feels about Alex’s game ahead of day four at the Zurich Classic

However, considering the way that he and his brother have been playing this week, they should have no problems closing out the win on Sunday.

Matt spoke to reporters after the third round in New Orleans and responded when asked to give his opinion on the current state of his brother’s game.

“Yeah, he was brilliant today. He was faultless, truly. He played fantastic, and he played fantastic yesterday as well,“ the 2022 U.S. Open champion said.

*“*He played brilliant golf both the last two days. His game has really turned a corner these last few months, and I believe in him to continue that trend.

“He’s doing all the right things, and obviously it was nice for him to have such a big impact there on the back nine to continue what the front nine brought.“

Fitzpatrick brothers react to scintillating 57 at the Zurich Classic

The Fitzpatrick brothers posted a faultless round of 57 on day three at TPC Louisiana.

And both of them reacted to that score after their round.

“Yeah, I didn’t really do much the first nine holes,“ Alex said.

“I just kind of just let him do his thing. Yeah, it was pretty cool to watch. You know, playing alongside my brother, who happens also to be one of the best players in the world is pretty fun. When he’s playing well, it’s pretty cool to watch.“

Matt then echoed a similar sentiment.

“Yeah, an amazing day. Amazing day. Probably not kind of sunk in how well we played today, if I’m honest,“ he admitted.

*“*Yeah, it was just hole after hole. The score, I only just realized we finished with five in a row. You know, you kind of are thinking about the next shot, so you’re not really thinking about that.

“Yeah, a special day.“

If Matt and Alex Fitzpatrick play anything like they did on Saturday during the final round of the Zurich Classic, they will be just fine.
