On April 20th, 2026, we break down the final round of the RBC Heritage, where Matt Fitzpatrick survived a blown lead to defeat Scottie Scheffler in a playoff and claim his second tartan jacket.

RBC HERITAGE: FITZPATRICK VS. SCHEFFLER

• Matt Fitzpatrick blew a three-shot lead and bogeyed the 72nd hole, but bounced back to defeat Scottie Scheffler in a sudden-death playoff on the 18th to secure his second career tartan jacket at Harbour Town.
• Trevor Immelman called Fitzy's 204-yard 4-iron approach "another one on the short list of his greatest shots," while Scheffler—who shot a bogey-free 67 and extended his cut streak to 72—admitted, "anytime Fitzy needed something to happen he made something happen."
• Fitzpatrick celebrated with a defiant ear-cupping "How do you like me now?!" post, and joked with Scheffler on the tee box ("Matt Fitzpatrick nice to meet you") while his caddie Daniel Parratt bantered about Harry Diamond.

WOODLAND'S RESILIENCE & MORIKAWA'S GRIND

• Gary Woodland delivered the moment of the tournament with a 204-yard walk-off eagle on 18 to finish T10, while Collin Morikawa battled through a back injury at 50% health to secure an impressive T4 finish.
• Scheffler praised Woodland as "so resilient" following his inspirational recovery from a craniotomy and PTSD, while Morikawa noted his week "felt like a full year of golf just grinding."
• Morikawa's upcoming PGA Tour schedule is completely "unknown" as he heads home to prepare for impending fatherhood.

HOMA'S HYPOCRISY & SPIETH'S STRUGGLES

• Max Homa faced heavy internet backlash after throwing his club on the 15th hole, directly contradicting his recent criticisms of Sergio Garcia, while Jordan Spieth's wildly inconsistent tee-to-green game left him finishing T33.
• Spieth led the field in putting but ranked an abysmal 72nd off the tee, prompting Johnson Wagner to bluntly state, "He cannot link it all together."
• The internet was quick to point out Homa's "holier than thou" attitude, resurfacing his recent quote that club-throwing "makes us look very very spoiled."
