Matt Fitzpatrick beat world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler on the first playoff hole at the RBC Heritage, draining a 13-footer for birdie after a 4-iron from 204 yards. Scheffler came up short — his second straight runner-up after the Masters.

Fitzpatrick's second win of 2026 and second Harbour Town title, both in playoffs, pushed him to a career-high No. 3 in the world and netted him $3.6 million from the $20 million Signature Event purse.

Scheffler's week was nearly flawless — bogey-free Sunday, elite scrambling — and he still lost. The No. 1 ranking isn't going anywhere, but wins aren't coming either. Si Woo Kim was third at -16; Morikawa, English, and Åberg shared fourth at -13.

Over at LIV Golf Mexico City, Jon Rahm made it a rout — six shots at -21 at Club de Golf Chapultepec, pocketing $4 million. His Legion XIII squad swept the team event by nine. A dominant week with a noisy backdrop: fresh reports emerged that Saudi PIF may reduce LIV funding at season's end.

The PGA Tour heads to New Orleans for the Zurich Classic (April 23–26, TPC Louisiana), the tour's only team event and a $9.5 million purse. Defending champs Ben Griffin and Andrew Novak are chasing history — no team has successfully defended since the format went team-only in 2017.

Top storyline: the Fitzpatrick brothers, Matt and Alex, teaming up fresh off Matt's Harbour Town win. Brooks Koepka and Shane Lowry also pair up after McIlroy withdrew.

Yeah. That Arnold Schwarzenegger.

So do Codie Sanchez, Scott Galloway, Colin & Samir, Shaan Puri, and Jay Shetty. And none of them are doing it for fun. They're doing it because a list you own compounds in ways that social media never will.
