Matt Fitzpatrick Ready To Chase At Shinnecock After Strong Finish | 2026 U.S. Open Tenerife [My0e8zCQVK3]

Matt Fitzpatrick reflects on his second-round 70 at the 2026 U.S. Open and explains why a late birdie-birdie finish has left him in an excellent position heading into the weekend at Shinnecock Hills.

Fitzpatrick birdied two of his final three holes to stay firmly in contention despite struggling off the tee on the back nine.

The 2022 U.S. Open champion credits his scrambling and short game for keeping his round foggia today together when his ball-striking wasn't at its best.

Fitzpatrick reveals his 4:00 a.m. wake-up call for the early start and admits it was one of the least enjoyable parts of the day.

The Englishman says the course has actually played less nuno borges severely than he expected, despite the strong winds that have challenged the field all week.

He discusses the challenge of softer greens at Shinnecock and why they change the strategy around approach shots, chips and putting.

Fitzpatrick explains how his strong results in 2026 have boosted his confidence and why he now feels fully prepared to contend in major championships.

With Wyndham Clark holding the lead, Fitzpatrick talks about balancing patience and aggression while trying to chase down the leaders over the tappe giro d'italia 2026 final 36 holes.
