Tiger Woods took to social media to praise Tommy Fleetwood. <\/p>\n
Tiger Woods was among the notable celebrities who sent a personal message to Tommy Fleetwood<\/a> after the PGA Tour golfer notched his first victory. Woods highlighted Fleetwood\u2019s resiliency while adding that \u201cno one deserves it more.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cYour journey is a reminder that hard work, resilience, and heart do pay off,\u201d Woods noted<\/a> in an August 24, 2025, message on X. \u201cNo one deserves it more. Congrats @TommyFleetwood1!\u201d<\/p>\n Less than 24 hours after the post went live, the message already has topped one million views, 44,000 likes and is approaching 2,000 reposts. Fleetwood became the first golfer in history to notch his initial PGA Tour victory at the Tour Championship<\/a>.<\/p>\n Tommy Fleetwood on Mindset Heading Into Final Holes of the Tour Championship: \u2018The Smallest Thoughts Creep in\u2019<\/p>\n Heavy Sports had an up-close look at Fleetwood\u2019s performance throughout the week. Fleetwood\u2019s crowd support was building during the tournament with a clear majority of the patrons rooting for the golfer to secure his first trophy by Sunday.<\/p>\n Chants of \u201cTom-my, Tom-my\u201d rang out throughout seemingly every grandstand that Fleetwood passed during the final round. Given Fleetwood\u2019s history of near victories, the golfer admitted there were some doubts that crept into his mind during the final few holes.<\/p>\n \u201cThe smallest thoughts creep in,\u201d Fleetwood admitted in his August 24, press conference<\/a> after the win. \u201cBut I \u2014 no, I never really felt like it wouldn\u2019t happen.<\/p>\n \u201cBut there\u2019s always doubt there. But I always sort of had belief in myself that you keep knocking on the door, you keep putting yourself up there, you keep playing well, keep learning from all the near misses and keep putting that into action in the next tournament or the next tournament or the next time you get a chance, see what is going to happen.\u201d<\/p>\n Tommy Fleetwood After Securing First PGA Tour Victory: \u2018I Want to Win Multiple\u2019<\/p>\n Fleetwood made it clear that despite finally ending the drought, the golfer does not want this to be his lone victory. The veteran golfer is after more trophies now that the streak is over.<\/p>\n \u201cI think that the guys that win the most, they\u2019re in contention so much; they\u2019re up there all the time,\u201d Fleetwood added. \u201cThat\u2019s where I want to be. I want to be up there. It\u2019s taken me a while to get this done, like to get this first win.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve never looked at it as just trying to win once. I\u2019ve always had the mindset that I want to win multiple. I want to win plenty. It\u2019s just that the first one seems to have taken a long time. The next one might take a long time; I don\u2019t know,\u201d Fleetwood continued.<\/p>\n \u201cBut I\u2019ve always had the mindset that I just want to be one of the best players in the world, I want to keep putting myself in contention, and yeah, I always felt like it would probably happen.\u201d<\/p>\n Fleetwood picked a good tournament to end his long drought. The golfer secured a massive $10 million check for winning the Tour Championship at East Lake. It will be interesting to see if Fleetwood can build on this momentum given the long break before next season tees off.<\/p>\n \n\t\t\tJonathan Adams<\/a> is a veteran sports contributor covering the NFL, NBA and golf for Heavy.com.
