From fed up to FedEx champ... A-Listers line up to pay tribute to Fleetwood on his first US title
TIGER WOODS led the A-list praise for Tommy Fleetwood after the Southport star captured his first PGA Tour title - and the heart of sporting America.
The uber-popular new world No.6 proved that good guys can come first by winning the Tour Championships - and the $10million FedEx Cup - at his 164th attempt.
Following years of failed bids, it was another feelgood European story in the USA after Rory Mcllroy won the Masters in April.
And the outpouring of sheer joy after his triumph at East Lake - the American crowd chanted “Tommy, Tommy” - was reminiscent of Woods’ emotional victory there in 2018 which ended his five-year trophy drought.
The 15-time Major winner took to social media to declare: “Your journey is a reminder that hard work, resilience and heart do pay off. No one deserves it more. Congrats @TommyFleetwood1!”
