I actually agree, of the top 3 he’s probably most likely. Scheffele or Rory could get in a charge though. I do like Rahm and would be happy if he won but my money went on Fitzpatrick so I’ll be rooting for him.

Likewise. I do like Rahm but I would be cheering for Fitzpatrick tonight.

Why does Scotty Schleffer use a Scotty Cameron putter?

Scheffler looking very strong here but surely he's got to slow down at some point in his round.

Even if he does win it then the rest of the field have the last laugh because at least their name isn't Scottie Scheffler.

Fitzpatrick is still making it interesting. Considering its Sunday at the US open im surprised how many birdies they are getting.
I have a simple philosophy: Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. Scratch where it itches. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zi5-V75v-6I

Any reason why Fitzpatrick always leaves the flag in when putting?

Was thinking that in our foursomes match last week. Lost 9 and 7!

Matsuyama had a bit of a charge today. Between him and Fitz I should make a small profit even if someone else wins.

I’m not made of money! I’m not that flash! 20 quid stake in total across 4 players is my rule. To have 2 still in the mix at this point keeps me interested. But I won’t be retiring on it. :D

Fuck off Zalatoris.

Asked my wife to pick a player at the start of the week and she picked Will. However, take away the money away and id still like him to win. He’s played amazing in Majors, and for all the talk about his putting he’s better in the greens than supposed top tier putters.

What a final round this is, and in general tournament. Zalatoris answers with an amazing par save.

If they all collapsed away and let Matsuyama win I wouldn’t mind.

But come on Fitz! Worried about the way Zalatoris keeps joking those 10-15 footers though, fair pay to him.

Can anyone confirm if Fitzpatrick won the US Amateur title on this course? Because I think I missed that fact the first 78 times they mentioned it this week.

Incredible final round. Every time you think someone has the momentum, someone else seems to siege it back. Scheffler now only one behind and Zalatoris looks like he will be soon as well. Still lots of pressure on Fitz. Huge pressure in fact. No idea how anyone closes these out, especially if you haven’t won a Major before.

If the putt from Fitzy would have gone in he'd be thinking' Well here it is Merry Christmas'.

The big question if Fitzpatrick wins this is, does he become the most famous Sheffield United fan ahead of Sean Bean?

Got to think it’s Fitzpatrick now, don’t see him making anything other par on the last and he looks cool as you like.

Fair play to him, working with Sasho MaKenzie to increase swing speed has clearly paid off. Biomechanist & swing coaches are clearly a good setup.

Did you post this before or after he drove into the bunker.

Surprised they'd need a compressor given how much hot air the American fans produce.
