Alex Fitzpatrick is living a dream week at Quail Hollow. After putting himself in contention at the Truist Championship, Alex spoke candidly about following in the footsteps of his brother Matt Fitzpatrick, learning from Cameron Young at Wake Forest, and finally believing he belongs on the PGA TOUR.
In this emotional and insightful press conference, Fitzpatrick discusses:
How Matt helped prepare him for TOUR life and major championships
Why hearing fans chant his name felt surreal
The swing changes that transformed his game
Winning in India and gaining confidence
Cameron Young “taking him under his wing” at Wake Forest
His new mindset about golf and life
“I looked around on 18 and thought… this feels like a dream.”
One of the breakout stories of the week — and maybe the arrival of another Fitzpatrick star.
Good luck!
This young man is special…
Truly psyched and happy for Alex!! Gotta love a good turnaround story. Wishing him big success and wins on the PGA Tour 💪👍🙏
Alex is awesome – so happy for all his success – very much deserved
this last round going up against Cam should be epic.
I hope you do it tomorrow
Compare that attitude to players like Sergio and Jon 😲, the future of golf looks bright with characters like Alex.
He and Cameron are playing great golf. Tomorrow should be special. The Fitzpatrick Brothers are very good and smart. The upcoming major at Shinnecock should be incredible.
What a great story. Alex wouldn’t have even been on the tour this season if the brothers didn’t win in New Orleans. And look at this kid go and prove his worth by doing nothing more than playing great golf. He might not have gotten here in the usual way, but he deserves to be out there and he’ll get some wins sometime soon.
Those Fitzpatrick parents have done an immaculate job.
Couple of young men the English can be really proud of. 🏴 #whiterose
Delighted for the lad, H'up the Blades 💥🏌♂️💥.
Go Alex. You're a really really great golfer
What a hard working fantastic Young man
