5<\/p>\n Tommy Fleetwood has finished as runner-up at six PGA Tour events, but never wonCredit: Getty<\/p>\n It was particularly disappointing end for Fleetwood, who looked as though he would finally end his wait for a maiden PGA title<\/a> in Memphis.<\/p>\n The 34-year-old entered the final round in the lead, and held a two-shot lead with three holes remaining.<\/p>\n But a par-bogey-finish saw him overtaken by both Rose and Spaun, with the former holding his nerve in the third sudden-death hole in the play-off to take home the $3.6million winner’s prize.<\/p>\n Fleetwood’s latest collapse came less than two months after he also missed out on glory at the Travelers Championship<\/a> in June.<\/p>\n Having held the 54-hole lead heading into the final round, he looked set to end his title wait then.<\/p>\n However, the Merseysider bogeyed two of the final three holes, as he finished one shot behind Keegan Bradley in a tie for second.<\/p>\n What did Tommy Fleetwood say after the FedEx St.Jude Championship?<\/p>\n And despite suffering another agonising near miss in Tennessee, Fleetwood focused on the positives of his consistent finishes near the top of leaderboards.<\/p>\n When asked how he felt after falling short, he replied: “I don\u2019t know, really. I don\u2019t know yet.<\/p>\n “I\u2019m obviously going to be disappointed. I said it last time, there\u2019s a lot of positives to take, as much as I won\u2019t really feel like that right now.<\/p>\n “I\u2019m just going to look at what I feel I could have done and how close it was. <\/p>\n 5<\/p>\n Justin Rose picked up a 12th PGA Tour win at the FedEx St.Jude ChampionshipCredit: Getty 5<\/p>\n Fleetwood also fell just short at the Travelers ChampionshipCredit: Getty<\/p>\n “But, we move on, there\u2019s another week next week and I\u2019ve just got to reflect on today, keep pushing forward and try and put myself in that position again.”<\/p>\n Fleetwood, who has now recorded 43 top 10 finishes in his 15 years on the PGA Tour, admitted he was encouraged by his recent displays.<\/p>\n He went on: \u201cI\u2019m getting close. That\u2019s the good side of it.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m obviously disappointed, but when you look at the positives, I was right there with a chance. It\u2019s hard to win. I just didn\u2019t get it done.\u201d<\/p>\n Fleetwood added: “All these experiences and these close calls, there’s no point in making or allowing them to have a negative effect on what happens next. What would be the point?”<\/p>\n A day before his eventual collapse at the FedEx St.Jude Championship, the world no.9 had shared a similar perspective on the story of his career so far.<\/p>\n 5<\/p>\n Fleetwood focused on the positives in his post-tournament interviewCredit: Sky Sports<\/p>\n He said: \u201cI would way rather be there and fail, than not be there at all,<\/p>\n \u201cI just look forward to the opportunities, giving myself a chance, chasing my dreams.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cWhether they happen or not \u2014 that\u2019s another story. But I\u2019m looking forward to it nonetheless.\u201d<\/p>\n What are Tommy Fleetwood’s main achievements?<\/p>\n While a PGA title continues to elude Fleetwood, he has certainly been handsomely rewarded for all his efforts. <\/p>\n According to PGA statistics, he has amassed a total of $32.5m (\u00a324m) in prize money to date, including his latest $1.16m cash prize in Tennessee.<\/p>\n His remarkable consistency near the top of leaderboards has also seen him record 29 top five finishes on the PGA Tour, six of which have come this season.<\/p>\n 5<\/p>\n Fleetwood’s consistency earned him medal success at the Paris OlympicsCredit: Getty<\/p>\n Elsewhere, Fleetwood is a seven-time champion on the DP World Tour, while he is a two-time major runner-up, having finished in second place at the 2018 US Open and The Open in 2019.<\/p>\n The golf star has also enjoyed success on the Olympic stage, claiming a\u00a0silver medal<\/a>\u00a0for Team GB at the\u00a02024 Games<\/a>\u00a0in Paris.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tommy Fleetwood gave a spirited response after his PGA Tour drought extended to 162 events without victory.
