The implant includes a flexible patch defining slots along an edge of the patch; a first anchor; and a second anchor. The delivery tool is adapted to transluminally deliver the implant to the heart; and implant the implant in the ventricle by securing the patch against a ventricular surface of the first leaflet by anchoring the first anchor to the first leaflet, and against a ventricular surface of the second leaflet by anchoring the second anchor to the second leaflet, such that (i) chordae of the valve extend through the slots, and (ii) the patch bridges a gap between the first leaflet and the second leaflet.
