6 days agoIt has been an incredible start to the season for Tommy Fleetwood, as he prepares for the year's first major next week at Augusta National. He's made six professional starts in 2025 and hasn't finished worse than T22. TPC San Antonio is a ball striker's golf course, with many narrow, undulating greens that force players to be spot-on with approach shots. He ranks 12th on the year in strokes gained on approach (+0.771), which has fallen slightly with a poor outing in this area at the Valspar. However, the 34-year-old has also rolled the rock much better since switching to bermudagrass—the same goes for his short game. At $11,900 on FanDuel, Fleetwood will be one of the more sought-after players for lineups this week.

3 weeks agoWith only two starts at the Copperhead Course, Tommy Fleetwood has never made this event a "must stop" on his schedule. But, the Englishman has played well on both occasions and comes into this week looking to add another solid finish to his resume. It's difficult to go as far as to call for a victory, as the 34-year-old has a well-documented history of winning woes on U.S. soil. However, this is a place seemingly ripe for him to change that. He ranks second on the season in strokes gained on approach (+1.076) and 38th in strokes gained off the tee (+0.349). A glaring downside for him would be his struggles with longer irons, as over 52% of approach shots come from beyond 175 yards. Fleetwood's proximity numbers for those distances mostly rank outside of the top 125. While another top week for him is expected, avoiding his massive ownership could be a better decision for most DFS builds.

4 weeks agoTommy Fleetwood finished tied for 11th at last week's Arnold Palmer Invitational and is now focusing on preparing for this week's The PLAYERS Championship, which will be held at TPC Sawgrass. He hasn't finished worse than a tie for 22nd in all four of his starts this year, and he aims to maintain that level of play this week. Historically, Fleetwood has performed well at The PLAYERS Championship, finishing tied for 35th in 2024, tied for 27th in 2023, and tied for 22nd in 2022. Over the past 12 months, Fleetwood ranks in the 99th percentile for greens in regulation percentage on approach shots from 100-150 yards in the fairway. This is significant because, at last year's The PLAYERS Championship, over 32% of approach shots came from this distance. Given his strong performance, Fleetwood could be a valuable addition to DFS lineups this week.

1 month agoEarly in his career, the Arnold Palmer Invitational looked like a place itching to award Tommy Fleetwood his first victory on American soil. However, after eight attempts, things have begun to go sideways for the English golfer at Bay Hill in recent years, having shot a second-round 80 last year and being only one of 11 players to miss the cut. 2025 has started well for the 34-year-old, and his most recent T5 finish at the Genesis certainly piques the interest of many DFS players wondering if it's time to jump back on the Fleetwood-Bay Hill bandwagon. Considering that his bad time last year was from losing over four strokes on approach in the two rounds played and the fact that he's currently leading the PGA Tour this season in that same metric (+1.178), the tides certainly seem to be changing. Start Fleetwood with confidence.
