Tommy Fleetwood says there is “no meaning” in letting his latest PGA Tour heartache negatively affect him after narrowly missed the FedEx St Jude Championship.
Fleetwood’s waiting time for a virgin PGA Tour title continues, after entering the final round of the tip and had a two-shot lead with three remaining holes, a par-bogy-par-finish saw him overtaken by any Master Justin Rose and JJ Spaun.
At Traveler’s Championship in June, Fleetwood led into the last hole, but a bogey let American Keegan Bradley snap the title.
The 34-year-old has the highest PGA Tour earnings without victory and has six top-five finishes this season.
“All of these experiences and these close calls, there is no meaning in making or giving them the opportunity to have a negative effect on what happens then. What would be the poenget?” said Fleetwood.
“It was a wonderful week. I did lots of good things, and as disappointed as I am, I have to try to find the strength to make it all a positive experience and hopefully next time go again, put me in that position again and we just go again.”

When asked what positive he pulls on and how the fans motivate him, Fleetwood said, “As long as they stay with me and stay on my side, we can all look for positive.
“I’m lucky with the support I get and I’ve had it – I haven’t been in conflict with much this year, and then travelers led openly and I felt it was a great atmosphere and I enjoyed playing in that atmosphere and then, again here I get the crowd on my side and I love their support. I’m so appreciated by it.
