Breakthrough in Brookline.

Matt Fitzpatrick (-6) earned his first victory on the PGA Tour in a major way, fighting off Scottie Scheffler and Will Zalatoris (both -5) to become the first English golfer since Justin Rose in 2013 to win the U.S. Open.

Fitzpatrick and Zalatoris started the day tied atop the leaderboard at 4 under. The latter seemingly fell out of contention in the front nine with two bogeys in his first three holes. But birdies on 6, 7 and 9 set him up to battle Fitzpatrick until the last putt.

Scheffler, meanwhile, suffered another back-nine meltdown after starting with four birdies in six holes. He was still in contention after bogeys on 10 and 11, especially after a late birdie on 17, but a par on the final hole left him no longer in control of his destiny.

Fitzpatrick, who carded a 3-under-par final round, faced similarly difficult circumstances at the start of the back nine, bogeying 10 and 11. But birdies on 13 and 15 — the latter a long putt from across the green — gave him the lead with only three holes remaining.

He was solid on 16 and 17, but a tee shot into the bunker on 18 nearly spelled disaster as he nursed a one-stroke lead over Zalatoris and Scheffler. No matter: His approach landed in the center of the green, and he two-putted his way to a par.

Zalatoris had the final shot of the day and, to his credit, he nearly forced a playoff. But a heartbreaking miss confirmed Fitzpatrick as the winner of the 2022 U.S. Open.

U.S. Open live updates, highlights from Sunday's Round 4

All times Eastern.

6:46 p.m.: Zalatoris edges the hole but misses it just left. It's a heartbreaker, but what a battle between him and Fitzpatrick (-6), winner of the 2022 U.S. Open!

6:45 p.m.: Fitzpatrick's shot is off the mark. He hits a footlong for par. It's all up to this last shot from Zalatoris.

6:42 p.m.: Zalatoris' approach is only a few feet closer to the pin than Fitzpatrick — he'll get a good read on the line but he has a tough birdie attempt.

6:41 p.m.: Huge pressure shot for Fitzpatrick, who gets it center of the green and has a 15-foot look at a birdie putt.

6:41 p.m.: Not a bad lie for Fitzpatrick, but he has to get it up quick to avoid the sand mound.

6:39 p.m.: Rahm, who once was among the leaders here at Brookline, hits par on his final hole to finish 1 over for the tournament. Huge applause.

6:37 p.m.: Fitzpatrick misses the same shot attempt and hits the bunker. Huge error there, to raucous applause among the people in attendance.

6:36 p.m.: Zalatoris' drive just clears that big, deep bunker and hits the fairway. Huge shot.

6:34 p.m.: Fitzpatrick's birdie attempt similarly breaks too early. One hole left to decide this.

6:33 p.m.: Zalatoris' birdie attempt breaks too early. He'll head to the final hole down a stroke to Fitzpatrick (assuming the latter doesn't birdie here).

6:31 p.m.: Incredible look for Scheffler to get a birdie on Hole 18. Gave it a good run but it just missed left. He'll walk it in for par but any chance at a playoff is out of his hands.

6:30 p.m.: Zalatoris' shot also lands above the pin but rolls back several feet. He'll have a 12-to-15-look at birdie to get back even with Fitzpatrick.

6:29 p.m.: Fitzpatrick's approach on 17 lands just above the pin and rolls back a few inches. He's looking at a 6-foot, downhill attempt for birdie. That likely would end it.

6:23 p.m.: Huge bounce-back birdie for Zalatoris, who centers the 5-foot birdie uphill. He has two holes to get one stroke back on Fitzpatrick.

6:22 p.m.: Incredible lag putt from Fitzpatrick lands a few inches from a tournament-ending birdie. He'll settle for par with two holes remaining.

6:21 p.m: Scheffler finds the center of the fairway on 18. He has a shot at moving into a tie for first.

6:20 p.m.: Beautiful tee shot from Zalatoris to get a 5-foot look at birdie on 16.

6:19 p.m.: And here's a birdie from Scheffler on 17! He needs another to move into a tie with Fitzpatrick, assuming the latter doesn't get any more birdies.

6:18 p.m.: Fitzpatrick finds the center of the center of the green on 16. He only needs par from here on out.

6:15 p.m.: And now Fitzpatrick birdies from roughly the same distance! He has a two-stroke lead over the Americans with three holes left; he stands to be the first English golfer to win the U.S. Open since Justin Rose in 2013.

6:14 p.m.: Great attempt for Zalatoris, but he's forced to two-putt for a bogey. He's now tied with Scheffler at 4 under.

6:12 p.m.: Zalatoris had a terrible lie in the bunker, and is looking at a 20-footer to salvage par.

6:09 p.m.: Pivotal moment — Zalatoris hits the front-left bunker and needs an up-and-down to save par.

6:08 p.m.: Fitzpatrick's ball just misses the mound, and he's able to get onto the green from roughly 12 feet. Zalatoris up next.

6:04 p.m.: Scheffler gets a decent birdie look on 16, but it breaks too early. He has two more holes to gain a stroke on the leaders (or otherwise hope they both bogey).

6 p.m.: Fitzpatrick's drive on 15 is far right, into the grandstands. Zalatoris' drive is also right of the fairway, but only in the thick stuff. Fitzpatrick may actually have the better lie.

5:51 p.m.: Scheffler's birdie attempt on 15 just misses. He'll remain a shot back of the leaders with only 16, 17 and 18 left to make up some ground.

5:50 p.m.: The two co-leaders maintain par and head to the 15th.

5:49 p.m.: Zalatoris' birdie attempt just misses right from 7 feet. He'll maintain the co-lead for now, with Fitzpatrick yet to putt to save par.

5:48 p.m.: Scheffler's approach on 15 bounces off the green and into the second cut behind the pin. Not hard to salvage for par, but he needs to get some birdies.

5:46 p.m.: McIlroy gets a birdie on 15 to get to 2 under, but is going to need quite a run to challenge Zalatoris and Fitzpatrick at the top of the leaderboard.

5:42 p.m.: Zalatoris and Fitzpatrick both find the fairway on 14.

5:33 p.m.: And Zalatoris saves it! Fantastic finish brewing in Brookline.

5:32 p.m.: Fitzpatrick hits an incredible lag putt for birdie on Hole 13! He's tied for the lead at 5 under. Now Zalatoris has to salvage par from 10 feet.

5:22 p.m.: Zalatoris is making things interesting. His drive on 13 is way right in the trees.

5:18 p.m.: Zalatoris (-5) can't salvage par and loses a stroke. He still has the outright lead but his lead has shrunk to one

5:14 p.m.: Scheffler manages par on Hole 13 — he needs to start getting some strokes back if he wants to win this.

5:14 p.m.: Zalatoris' first shot is far right in the thick stuff. His second is on the fairway but he'll need to scramble to save par.

5:08 p.m.: Matsuyama's final tee of the day ends way right in the grandstands. Someone's got a story to tell.

5:04 p.m.: Fitzpatrick following Scheffler's example with his second straight bogey. He falls to 4 under, giving Zalatoris a two-stroke lead.

5:02 p.m.: That's a 12-foot birdie and the solo lead for Zalatoris (-6)!

4:58 p.m.: Fitzpatrick bogeys on 10 as well to lose the outright lead. He and Zalatoris head into the remainder of the back nine where they started the day: tied for first.

4:47 p.m.: Scheffler (-4) is on the verge of another meltdown. He has bogeyed on Holes 10 and 11 and needs to stop the bleeding.

4:38 p.m.: Zalatoris is heating up at the right time, too. He birdies on Hole 9 — his third in four holes — to join Scheffler in second place at 5 under.

4:36 p.m.: Repeat of history? Scheffler can't sink the par-saving putt and loses the lead to fall to 5 under.

4:29 p.m.: Scheffler's approach on Hole 10 rolls past the green into the backside bunker. He'll need to chip out for an up-and-down par.

4:26 p.m.: Fitzpatrick takes advantage of the par-5 eighth hole where Scheffler couldn't. The two are now tied again at 6 under and heading for an awesome battle on the back nine.

4:25 p.m.: Scheffler once again heads to the back nine with a score of 6-under par. Can he avoid yesterday's meltdown that cost him four strokes on the back nine?

4:15 p.m.: Keep an eye on Hideki Matsuyama, who's 4 under this round to go to 2 under for the tournament.

4:09 p.m.: Scheffler properly steeled himself and salvaged par on Hole 8 with a 5-foot par putt. This is getting interesting.

4:07 p.m.: Another birdie for Zalatoris on Hole 7! His immaculate approach game is keeping him in contention.

4:01 p.m: Fantastic tee from Zalatoris on the par-3 sixth. The ensuing birdie gives him third place outright at 3 under.

4 p.m.: Scheffler's having his mettle tested. His third shot on Hole 8 hits the false edge and rolls about 4 feet away from where he originally shot. He'll need an up-and-down to save par, now.

3:59 p.m.: Fitzpatrick (-5) loses a stroke on Hole 6, giving Scheffler the outright lead again. Scheffler's in good position to take a two-stroke lead on the par-5 eighth hole.

3:51 p.m.: Scheffler's on Hole 8, where he's 4-under par through three playthroughs (including that magical eagle in Round 3). He gets a bit of roll along the right side of the fairway.

3:50 p.m.: Fitzpatrick, one hole behind Scheffler, hits his second birdie of the day on Hole 5. He's now tied for the lead at 6 under.

3:49 p.m.: Meanwhile, Hideki Matsuyama hits a long putt to get to 1 under for the tournament.

3:47 p.m.: Zalatoris (-2) just can't seem to get the strokes back that he lost. He just barely misses a 5-foot birdie attempt.

3:42 p.m.: Three holes, two birdies. Not too bad for Joel Dahmen (-2).

3:39 p.m.: Scottie's feeling it now. He's birdied on the par-3 sixth hole — his first birdie there all tournament. He's back atop the leaderboard at 6 under (-4 this round).

3:24 p.m.: McIlroy has his third birdie of the day, punctuated with a pair of bogeys in between. Interesting round for him as he moves back to 2 under.

3:21 p.m.: Fitzpatrick joins Scheffler atop the leaderboard with a 3-foot birdie on the third.

3:20 p.m.: More issues for Zalatoris, whose 30-foot lag putt stops a few feet short of a par save. That's another stroke lost.

3:17 p.m.: The question now is whether Scheffler can maintain his play — he could not in Round 3, when he double-bogeyed on 11 and bogeyed on Holes 12, 13 and 14.

3:15 p.m.: Once again, Scheffler is atop the leaderboard by himself. He hit a 12-footer downhill — his third birdie in four holes — and is back to 5 under for the tournament.

3:15 p.m.: Adam Hadwin with an incredible 15-foot birdie that needed a ton of break from left to right. He centered it and is back to 2 under.

3:12 p.m.: And there's another bogey from McIlroy on 4. He's back to eve for the day and 1 under for the tournament.

3:08 p.m.: Zalatoris is off the lead after bogeying on 2. Still only a shot back.

3:06 p.m.: McIlroy's way left on the fifth hole, looks to be on the mound. That's going to be tough to scramble from.

3:05 p.m.: Bounce-back birdie for McIlroy to get to 2 under.

3:05 p.m.: Fitzpatrick barely misses a birdie on Hole 2 and settles for the walk-in par to remain at the co-lead at 4 under.

3 p.m.: Denny McCarthy is 3 under for the round and 2 under for the tournament — only two shots back of the leaders.

2:59 p.m.: Rahm saves par with a 5-footer. Meanwhile, Keegan Bradley goes bogey-bogey to start the round, falling back to even for the tournament.

2:56 p.m.: Zalatoris salvages par with a nice opening up-and-down to remain the co-lead.

2:53 p.m.: McIlroy bogeys on Hole 3 to fall back to 1 under. Gotta keep it under control.

2:50 p.m.: Scheffler's drive on 3 goes so far he hits the curve. He's feeling it early in Round 4.

2:48 p.m.: Zalatoris and Fitzpatrick both find the fairway on their opening drives. We are now full go.

2:44 p.m.: Two holes. Two birdies. We have a new co-leader with Scottie Scheffler going to 4 under.

2:43 p.m.: And now Denny McCarthy (-1) is back under par after a birdie on 4.

2:41 p.m.: Rahm's approach on the opening hole falls just short of the green. He'll need an up-and-down par to remain a shot back of Will Zalatoris and Matt Fitzpatrick.

2:39 p.m.: McIlroy with a nice stinger down the fairway on Hole 3. Reminder that he's only two shots back of the leaders. ...

2:37 p.m.: Hideki Matsuyama is back to even for the day with a right-to-left putt from 8 feet out on Hole 7.

2:34 p.m.: Jon Rahm finds the left-center fairway on Hole 1. Only the leaders remain to tee off.

2:25 p.m.: Rory's making moves early with a birdie on Hole 1:

2:13 p.m.: Rory McIlroy (-1) tees off and goes a little left, into the rough. Nothing he can't recover from.

1:54 p.m.: Whatever works, works.

1:52 p.m.: Xander Schauffele with a clinic on how to play the par-3 Hole 11.

1:27 p.m.: When luck meets skill, it looks like this:

12:22 p.m.: Mackenzie Hughes is playing some great golf out there; he's 2 under for the round and two shots from even for the tournament.
