A biography for Tommy Fleetwoodhasn’t been written yet.
“This is my third year in a row where I'm one of those players that has a chance to win the Race to Dubai. I just think it's important this year that I take the experiences of 2017 and 2018 into it and know that it still takes a lot to do it and it's not in my hands at all.”
“You don't know where your career is going to take you. It might all go wrong and I might never play in a Masters again. So it's important to keep things real.”
“Race to Dubai winner, playing in Ryder Cups, winning majors - these are all great parts of a career you want to have.”
“I had a few moments in Hong Kong, the odd minute where you sit down and reflect more than anything of having that ticked off in your career. It's something special.”
“Every round I have three little targets. Maybe it is just 'talk to myself properly' or 'stand up straight on the greens.' One day I might say, 'Don't talk to anyone.' On another I'll be a lot chattier. Or I might say, 'smile all the way round.' Little things. But little things turn into bigger things.”
“I don't particularly like talking about it much, but after a year of struggling, when you start playing better, you have a much better perspective on the game.”
“You can have ups and downs, and I know that as good as anybody because I've had them.”
“If I'm going to be away from my family then I want to make the practice count more.”
“I think as golfers, whenever you've had a long period off, you always sort of plan for a bit of rust. Not necessarily how you hit it, but just how you go about playing golf.”
“It's hard if you don't quite feel on your game to go out and put scores on the board.”
“It is the biggest sporting occasion in the world when it comes around so I want to be there, I want to play multiple Ryder Cups. I just want to be part of that whole thing.”
“My game is getting better all the time. I'm consistently working hard, and I feel like I'm always doing the right things.”
“Being managed by your wife means you just get told what to do all the time as opposed to some of the time.”
“My driver is my strongest club - it's what my game kind of revolves around.”
“It's a different style of golf; that stands out for sure when you come over to America. The style of play and the golf courses in America. Most golf courses in America either stretch your game, and test different elements of your game and the margins for error are smaller.”
“Going into my first Ryder Cup, my big fear was that I would contribute nothing to the team and that we'd lose.”
“I've used Nike clubs since I was 13.”
“The hard part is majors are exhausting on their own. They're a long week. So the hard part is your energy levels.”
“I have always been a very patient person, I am a perfectionist but have a high level of patience and think that's one of the things when I started my comeback that really helped... I wasn't rushing anything as long as I knew I was on the right track.”
“I don't have the look of a golfer. Do I look like a rock star? I didn't make it playing guitar so I started playing golf!”
