Two weeks after Jordan Spieth said that gambling in golf needs to be “tackled here soon” by the PGA Tour, fellow pro Matt Fitzpatrick agreed that it’s becoming a serious problem.

Fitzpatrick’s comments came during his pre-tournament press conference ahead of this week’s Open Championship at Royal Birkdale. He emphasized that gambling is indeed a growing concern within the professional golfing community.

Both Spieth and Fitzpatrick's remarks shed light on the increasing challenges posed by gambling in the sport, prompting discussions on the need for proactive measures to address this issue.
