Tommy Fleetwood finished runner-up to Shane Lowry at The 148th Open at Royal Portrush in 2019.
He also came second behind Brooks Koepka in the previous year’s US Open at Shinnecock Hills, where his closing 63 equalled the then championship record.
Fleetwood made his long-awaited breakthrough on the PGA Tour, after 163 events and 30 top-five finishes, when he lifted the FedEx Cup in August, winning the end-of-season TOUR Championship by three shots. This came shortly after near misses at the FedEx St. Jude Championship and the Travelers Championship in June where, one ahead on the final tee, he three-putted for bogey and Keegan Bradley birdied to take the victory.
Following victory on the PGA Tour, he won again on the DP World Tour - shooting a 7-under par final round of 65 to win the DP World India Championship by two strokes in October 2025.
Famed for his Ryder Cup exploits, his debut came in Paris in 2018 – on the same Golf National course where he lifted the French Open a year earlier and took Olympic silver behind Scottie Scheffler.
In Paris he and Francesco Molinari won all their four games together in Europe’s triumph. Then in Rome he won three of his four matches, two of them alongside Rory McIlroy, before his singles victory over Rickie Fowler took Luke Donald’s side over the line. He was then part of the winning European team at Bethpage Black, winning four points out of a possible five - the most of any player throughout the week.
The Englishman was the leading money-winner on the 2017 European Tour and during a climb into the world’s top ten twice won the HSBC Abu Dhabi Championship. His form in 2025 moved him into the top five for the first time.
He was runner-up in the 2008 Amateur Championship at the age of 17 and just missed out on The Open as a result. He also became the youngest-ever European Challenge Tour No.1 in 2011.
