While Rory Mcilroy caught his way to a historic and emotion In masters in April, among players to hang and see the closing moments was Old Ryder Cup of Mcilroy Tommy Fleetwood. The Englishman undertook the action on a TV on Room filled with Augusta National Scarsmiling after every stroke and grip after every iron loose. When Mcilroy sealed the deal and did the 18th green to score, Fleetwood was among the small groups of lovers waiting to hug Mcilroy from the club.
Fleetwood, who is 34, knows better than most of how he felt like most Mcilroy’s 0-for-6 victory in Masters. That’s because he has tried to capture a cold spell of his own: not only in the masters, but more widely in PGA Tour, where at that point in early April, Fleetwood was 0-for-152, as at zero earns in 152 beginnings. In the weeks from the masters, Fleetwood’s without winner has been extended to 0-for-159-not for lack of effort. Since its first PGA Tour-Campionati-HSBC World Tour-HSBC championship in 2013-Fleetwood has accumulated 42 Top-10 conclusions, including a half-run. In the modern era of the tour, no player has more Top-10 without a win, a bitter record that Fleetwood holds with a wide margin (next to the list is Brett Quigley with 34).
Thus, on Sunday, when Fleetwood got a three -stroke command on The last round of the traveler championship -In the back of a third round 63-He knew much more was under discussion than just a check of a $ 3.6 million winner and chairs full of FedEx Cup points; Fleetwood was playing to exorcate more than the decade of narrow calls and what can beners have.
Tommy Fleetwood’s heartbroken 72-ribbon holes in travelers
His round did not start well with three bogeys and a bird in his first four holes that allowed KEEGAN BRADLEYwho was in the group of Fleetwood along with Russell Henley, to win a portion of Fleetwood’s superiority. But when Fleetwood closed his nine front with five straight pars and then Zog 11 and 13, he had again captured the moment and the superiority (with two). “I didn’t feel like I was playing very poorly,” Fleetwood said after his round. “I felt like I was hitting a lot of good shots. I really feel like from 7 onwards the shooting I was hitting – 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 – I was in control and playing very well.”
Was starting to feel like Tommy Lad’s day even if she sounding Like Bradley’s. Throughout the week, Connecticut galleries were drawn to Bradley, their New Englander friend, and the US Ryder Cup captain, and on Sunday, their support grew only more vocals.
However, in Par-4 15 15, a blocked slap cost Fleetwood a chance for Birdie. In par-3 16, he lost long and paid the price with a bang. After a level at 17, Fleetwood reached the 72nd hole leading from only one on Bradley and two above Henley. After excellent discs from Fleetwood and Bradley, both players were left only short cuffs. Fleetwood first played, from 148. He chose a 9-and-then and then moments before hitting his change for a wedge, which proved that it was a tactical mistake. His ball turned out well short, settling on the front edge, 50 meters from the hole.
Bradley hit the next and gave one of the shooting of his career: a 6 -meter wedge that sent thousands of fans calling the green to delirium.
Birdie of Fleetwood tried to retreat briefly and in the worst possible place, about a leg outside the bradyley sign, which means Fleetwood would give his opponent a reading. Fleetwood began his first attempt at the left edge of the hole. About half the road to the cup seemed to be tracing until his ball hit what seemed to be Mark i Spike or any other inconsistencies in green. The point was directed straight and lost the hole. Bogey

Bradley’s poultry attempt, which he started in a line similar to Fleetwood, looked good all the way. And it was. Cup center. Birdie. Highlands TPC broke out. So, too, did Bradley. That was not a Ryder Cup match, but it probably felt like one.
Fleetwood did not have to speak the press after his round, but he did. Gamely and honestly and with a glaze on his eyes. He told CBS that he felt “bold” and then, at a longer session with reporters, said his three-point was a “upset way to finish”, and that he was “upset” and “angry”.
“I would like to go and go somewhere and maybe I will do,” he said. “But there is not just any point making it a negative for the future really, just get the positives and continue.
“I did a lot of things well this week to win.
According to Fleetwood schedule on his website, his next start is the Genesis Scottish Open, July 9-13, followed a week later by the open championship in Royal Portrush.
“The search continues,” he said on Sunday evening. “When it happens will be very, very sweet.”
