Skechers Athlete Matt Fitzpatrick Helps Team Europe Earn Ryder Cup Victory

Fitzpatrick Secures 2^nd Ryder Cup Win in Skechers GOLF^® Footwear and Performance Apparel

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Skechers athlete Matt Fitzpatrick has triumphed once again, helping Team Europe reclaim its title at the Black Course of Bethpage State Park in Farmingdale, New York. Just two years after his first victory at the 43^rd Ryder Cup in 2023, Fitzpatrick showcased his exceptional skill and composure, contributing to the team’s success. Outfitted in a custom version of the Skechers GO GOLF® Blade golf shoe, designed to celebrate Team Europe, he delivered a standout performance alongside his teammates to secure the win.

“Helping Team Europe secure another Ryder Cup win for the second time in my career is a dream come true, and contributing to this victory together with such a talented group makes it even more special,” said Matt Fitzpatrick. “Skechers put me in an incredible shoe this week, and I am so appreciative of their support.”

“It’s an honor to be a part of Matt Fitzpatrick’s win at the Ryder Cup tournament this weekend,” said Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers. “From his remarkable iron shot out of the fairway bunker on the 18^th hole to his unyielding focus under pressure, Matt’s success proves to golfers everywhere how Skechers Golf footwear delivers the consistent comfort and performance needed to win no matter your level.”

After a successful amateur career, Fitzpatrick turned pro at the age of 19. The English native earned his first professional victory in 2015 at the British Masters at Woburn Golf Club. The following year, he was selected for the Ryder Cup European team and went on to win the 2016 DP World Tour Championship. Since his professional debut, Fitzpatrick has achieved nine wins on the European Tour, including a victory at the 2023 Alfred Dunhill Links Championship. He also has three PGA Tour wins, highlighted by his first major championship title in June 2022 at the U.S. Open. Fitzpatrick also played a key role in the 2023 Ryder Cup, contributing to Team Europe’s success.

In 2022, Fitzpatrick joined the roster of Skechers golf pros that now includes Brooke Henderson, Bernhard Langer, and Max Greyserman—all wearing Skechers Golf footwear on tour.
