Tommy Fleetwood expressed his confidence in Team Europe’s ability to elevate his performance at the upcoming Ryder Cup event. Fleetwood, a key member of Luke Donald’s team, will join renowned golfers such as Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, and Matt Fitzpatrick at Bethpage Black.
In the world of golf, where individual play dominates most tours, the sport can often feel isolating for players like Fleetwood, who usually rely solely on their coaches and caddies for support. However, the Ryder Cup’s team format offers a different dynamic, fostering camaraderie and mutual support among players on and off the course throughout the event.
Fleetwood shared his excitement about the team experience during a press conference, emphasizing the significance of representing Team Europe and carrying forward its rich legacy. He highlighted the privilege of being part of a collective effort, surrounded by teammates, vice-captains, the captain, and support staff, all working together to bring out the best in each other.
The golfer enters the Ryder Cup with a recent victory at the Tour Championship, securing his first PGA Tour title. Despite this personal achievement, Fleetwood’s focus is now on defending Team Europe’s title at the upcoming competition at Bethpage Black, where he anticipates strong competition from Team USA, led by top talents like Bryson DeChambeau, Scottie Scheffler, and Xander Schauffele.
The Ryder Cup is set to kick off at Bethpage Black on Friday, September 26.
