It wasn’t like there was any real decision, was there?

The PGA Tour announced on Tuesday that Alex Fitzpatrick, who won the Zurich Classic on Sunday with his brother Matt Fitzpatrick, officially accepted his membership on Tuesday.

Alex Fitzpatrick is officially a PGA Tour member and has a wide-ranging list of benefits that came as a result of his win with Matt down in New Orleans:

  • Full PGA Tour membership through the 2028 season
  • Entry into the remaining Signature Events this season
    • Starting with this week’s Cadillac Championship, the fifth of eight overall Signature Events
  • Entry into the PGA Championship this season
  • Entry into The Players next season

The CBS broadcast noted in the aftermath of the brothers winning last week that the collective lives of their whole family has now changed. Consider that while Alex is now a Tour member and has entry into these events, they can now all travel together and do things of the like. It is a pretty awesome thing for the Fitzpatricks.

It will be interesting to see how Alex fares down in Miami this week.
