Alex Fitzpatrick has spent most of his career on the DP World Tour. But after he and his brother Matt won the Zurich Classic in New Orleans over the weekend, Alex had the opportunity to accept a PGA TOUR membership—and on Tuesday, he made it official.
With the win at TPC Louisiana, Alex is now exempt on TOUR through the 2028 season. He's also into the remaining Signature Events—including this week's Cadillac Championship at Doral—as well as the 2026 PGA Championship and 2027 THE PLAYERS.
On this week's episode of Dan on Golf, Matt told host Dan Rapaport that the brothers' win was "fairytale stuff."
It didn't come as a shock, however. Matt entered the week ranked third in the world, fresh off a win at the RBC Heritage and not far removed from claiming the Valspar Championship. That same week, Alex won the Hero Indian Open on the DP World Tour.
Safe to say the Fitzpatrick brothers were coming in hot.
A pair of siblings teaming up to win on TOUR is one of the coolest stories golf has seen in a while—and now we'll get to see a whole lot more of Alex.
