Tour Championship win comes in his 164th start on PGA Tour
‘I’ve never looked at it as just trying to win once,’ says Englishman
Tommy Fleetwood insisted he is ready to write a fresh chapter of golfing success after ending his wait for a victory in the United States after 11 years.
Fleetwood’s three-stroke win at the Tour Championship in Atlanta came in his 164th start on the PGA Tour. While determined to enjoy the moment, the 34-year-old from Southport has no plans to rest on his laurels. Fleetwood had been probed time and again about his series of near misses in the US.
“The guys that win the most are in contention so much, they’re up there all the time,” Fleetwood said. “That’s where I want to be. I want to be up there. It’s taken me a while to get this done, to get this first win. I’ve never looked at it as just trying to win once. I’ve always had the mindset that I want to win multiple. I want to win plenty. It’s just that the first one seems to have taken a long time.
