Scottsdale, Ariz. – Troon® and the company’s 24,000-plus associates congratulate Team Troon member Matthew Fitzpatrick on his incredible United States Open championship at The Country Club in Brookline, Mass. Fitzpatrick’s first major championship came at the same venue where he won the U.S. Amateur championship in 2013. Fitzpatrick’s U.S. Open championship is the fourth major championship victory for a Team Troon Member and the second in a row, following Justin Thomas’ PGA Championship win in May (his second major) and Gary Woodland’s 2019 U.S. Open win at Pebble Beach Golf Links.
Team Troon is a collection of top international golf talent representing the Troon brand throughout professional golf. Fitzpatrick is joined on Team Troon by PGA TOUR golfers Justin Thomas, Gary Woodland, Matt Kuchar and Bubba Watson of the United States, Alex Noren of Sweden, PGA TOUR Champions golfer and World Golf Hall of Famer Collin Montgomerie of Scotland, LPGA Tour/Ladies European Tour player Cheyenne Woods and LPGA golfer Yealimi Noh. Fitzpatrick’s Troon-branded, U.S. Open-inspired golf bag featured red, white and blue trimming and stitching, as well as the Troon logo embroidered on the pockets.
“Congratulations to Matthew on his outstanding U.S. Open victory,” said Troon President and CEO Tim Schantz. “He played well all week, but his bunker shot on 18 on Sunday was one of the all-time pressure shots in major championship history and he executed it perfectly. I am certain we’ll be seeing it replayed for years to come, likely sandwiched between Watson’s chip at Pebble Beach and Stewart’s putt at Pinehurst! With two straight major championship wins, Team Troon members are on an incredible roll – a streak we hope to continue at next month’s Open Championship.”
Fellow Team Troon member Gary Woodland finished tied for 10th at the U.S. Open, while Troon investor Rory McIlroy, through his investment fund Symphony Ventures, finished tied for fifth.
