English golfer with multiple near-misses at majors who won the 2025 FedEx Cup and has an outstanding Ryder Cup record.
At his 164th attempt on American soil, Tommy Fleetwood won the 2025 Tour Championship to claim the FedEx Cup, ending a long wait for a PGA Tour title and adding to a career highlighted by agonising near-misses in major championships — including a closing 63 at the 2018 U.S. Open — and three winning Ryder Cup campaigns. Fleetwood enjoyed a decorated amateur career, winning the 2010 English Amateur and representing Great Britain and Ireland at the 2009 Walker Cup, before turning professional later that year and building a reputation as one of Europe's most consistent players. Fleetwood won the European Tour's Race to Dubai in 2017, and came agonisingly close to major championship glory on multiple occasions, finishing runner-up at both the 2018 U.S. Open, firing a final-round 63, and the 2019 Open Championship. Fleetwood finally won on American soil at his 164th attempt, claiming the 2025 season-ending Tour Championship to secure the FedEx Cup, and has represented Europe in three winning Ryder Cup teams, becoming a fan favourite for his calm demeanour and distinctive long hair, later winning a silver medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics.
