RBC Heritage: Matt Fitzpatrick beats Scottie Scheffler in play-off to win title - BBC

England's Matt Fitzpatrick beat world number one Scottie Scheffler in a play-off to win the RBC Heritage in South Carolina.

The 31-year-old carded a bogey five on the 18th when a par would have sealed victory, but quickly overcame that disappointment to birdie the same hole a few minutes later and claim his second PGA Tour title in the space of a month.

Fitzpatrick had started the final round with a three-shot lead as he attempted to follow up his victory at the Valspar Championship in March.

The former US Open champion played his first 17 holes in two under par without dropping a shot, but American Scheffler was able to close the gap to one by the time they stood together on the 18th tee.

Both players failed to find the green in two at the last and while Scheffler made it up and down for par to complete a four-under round of 67, Fitzpatrick's poor chip led to his first bogey of the day.

But Sheffield-born Fitzpatrick hit a superb approach on the first play-off hole, before nervelessly sinking his birdie putt to win.

"To win it twice means the world," he said. "To go toe-to-toe with Scottie and get over the line at the 73rd [hole] is special."
