Tommy Fleetwood had a dream season. The man who had been trying in vain for years to win his first PGA Tour title finally took an important step and silenced his critics this year. The Tour Championship was the best experience of his career, and it also laid the foundation for his future successes.
The English golfer was a dominant figure at the Ryder Cup in New York and helped his team triumph. After the Ryder Cup, Fleetwood had no less ambition, but an even greater desire to progress and win tournaments.
Ultimately, that came true, considering that Fleetwood won the DP World India Championship among many stars of the golf scene.
Most were most impressed by his performance at the Ryder Cup, as he brought many points to his team.

The vice-captain of the US team, Webb Simpson, praised the experienced Englishman in an interview with the media.
Rory McIlroy and Tommy Fleetwood are considered by many to be the most consistent golfers, and Webb Simpson agrees with this opinion.
Fleetwood has improved in various aspects of the game, showing that he is open and willing to progress and become the best version of himself.
I think he is right there with Rory. In terms of consistency, he might have been the most consistent player worldwide.
We go from Bethpage, where the fairways are wide and the rough is short, to this golf course in India, which was extremely tight, and it took the weapon of Rory McIlroy, his driver, out of play a bit, so he wasnt much of a factor, like you would expect him to be.

But Tommy just hits it great. His putter is usually really strong. I think that has improved this second half of the season.
So its really cool that Tommy was able to do that. Its the best field that India has probably ever seen, so its pretty cool to see.
He has had an awesome year, and I think we are going to continue to see Tommy Fleetwoods name at the top moving forward over the next few years.- Simpson said, as quoted by The Golfing Gazette.
Next year
Next year brings equally high expectations for Fleetwood, and fans hope that they will triumph in several tournaments next year as well. The experienced Englishman took a huge burden off his back, won the Tour Championship and showed that he is improving day by day.
