"I feel like it's a great event" - Matt Fitzpatrick hopes that RBC Heritage remains designated event next year as well
Matt Fitzpatrick has some good childhood memories of South Carolina Lowcountry as his family used to come here for vacation pretty often and since then, he has dreamed of winning at the Harbour Town Golf Links.
After winning the 2023 RBC Heritage event, Fitzpatrick answered reporters' question of whether he would like it to remain an elevated event next year as well. The 28-year-old Englishman said he hoped so given the course was a different challenge compared to the usual courses they play mostly.
He said:
"I feel like it's a great event. You've seen the crowds out there this week. I feel like they've been really good. I feel like ticket sales probably are also really good. It's a great town to have a golf tournament. The golf course is fantastic. It really is a true test, and it's different to what we play week in and week out."
He added that the fact that Jon Rahm featured here a week after winning The Masters was a testament to the tournament and he hoped that it would be an elevated event in 2024.
The RBC Heritage event took place just a week after the 2023 Masters and Rahm was the first Masters winner since 2015 champion Jordan Spieth to participate in the event.
Fitzpatrick stated that although it can be tough for some players to play here right after The Masters week, he feels it's not much of a problem for him as he loves playing here.
"I think it's a great time in the year to have it [RBC Heritage] here weather-wise, golf course condition-wise. I have to admit previously, I feel like it's been a heavier toll on me than it has this week. I'm not really sure why that is.
"I think sometimes it can be tough, particularly if you really had a grind, if you had a good result. I think it can be difficult to get yourself up for it. But for me, it is a little bit different. It's a week that I enjoy."
