ANTALYA, Turkey – At this point last year, Tommy Fleetwood was ranked outside the top 100 in the world and wasn’t exactly a household name even back home in England.
That has changed dramatically as evidenced by the fact that on Wednesday at the Turkish Airlines Open both Justin Rose and Henrik Stenson, two of Europe’s top players the last decade, were asked about Fleetwood.
It’s all part of a new reality for Fleetwood, who has climbed to 19th in the world ranking and won twice on the European Tour in 2017.
