Tommy Fleetwood attracts enormous public attention, especially after his last performance. The 34-year-old golfer has attracted attention with a great performance at FedEx St. Jude Championship, but some are still wondering if the English golfer is ready to win the trophies?
Namely, in the last moments of the FedEx St. Jude Championship, Tommy fell short of winning, and his lack of concentration drew various questions from the public.
Aiming for the first trophy for years, Fleetwood encounters various barriers, and it seems as if it is slowly losing the necessary confidence.
There is a lot of analysis related to his performance, and the well-known face of the golf scene, Eddie Pepperell, thinks he knows what the main problem is for the Englishman.
Pepperell is surprised by the crisis periods that Tommy has, believing that he would have to choose some smaller tournaments
"The problem for Tommy is that he's not confident, he's not, he's [not] got this winning killer mentality yet," Pepperell said, as quoted by Golf Magic.
"He can grow and build but he's not playing in events where I think it can, it can, he can just get over the line by someone else not doing what Justin Rose has just done.
He's playing in these tournaments where you're having to beat Scottie Scheffler and if you're not trying to beat Scottie Scheffler you're trying to beat these world-class, immensely confident killers and that just makes it so much harder for Tommy.
And so I just wonder if there's a, there's a place in his mind where next year he tries to add in a few of the lower PGA Tour events and go and win by four or five or six, dominate one the way Cam Young did because he will go from strength to strength now Cameron Young.
We see it so regularly. I just, yeah that would be my only wonder if Tommy does that scheduling wise next year."
What will happen?
Whether the experienced golfer will choose smaller tournaments or change something in his game, time will tell.
Such crises in the last moments do not cause optimism, and it is clear that he could feel the increasing pressure from year to year.
