Fitzpatrick: U.S. Open co-pioneer feels totally at ease at Brookline

The help has not slipped through the cracks as the Englishman said he has never heard “Fitzy” hollered more on American soil previously and said exactly that to his caddie Billy Foster on the last opening.

“I was strolling down 18 and said exactly the same thing to Billy. I said, clearly, winning the U.S. Am here helps, however it simply feels somewhat more like a home game this week, and that is the reason it feels unique and to improve things,” said Fitzpatrick.

“It’s been perfect to have the help this week. Any minutes I’ve had of progress around here during this week, it’s been commended really clearly.”

He clearly expects an improved outcome this time around and could never have picked a superior design given the Country Club is one that he feels suits him well.

“You must plot your strategy for getting around. You truly need to ponder where you need to hit it, where you would rather not hit it,” said Fitzpatrick.

“Contrasted with other fairways we play on Tour, it positively gives that to me, and that is the reason I like it.”
