Tommy Fleetwood suffered yet another devastating defeat on Sunday, this time at the FedEx St. Jude Championship.

Fleetwood led the FedEx St Jude Championship by one stroke heading into the final round on Sunday, and midway through his back nine, he had taken control of the tournament.

When the Englishman birdied the 15th hole, he had a two-shot lead over Justin Rose and J.J. Spaun.

However, Fleetwood’s game deserted him at the FedEx St Jude down the stretch with some poor shots leading to a par on the reachable par-five 16th and a bogey on the 17th.

Fleetwood was positive as ever when speaking to the press after his gut-wrenching defeat.

He always comes across as such a genuinely nice and humble man, but is that what he is really like behind the scenes?

Tommy Fleetwood’s PGA Tour record after FedEx St. Jude heartache

Fleetwood now has the best record in the game among players who haven’t won on the PGA Tour.

Here are his career results to date:

Fleetwood will unquestionably find a way of getting over the line sooner rather than later, he’s simply too good a player not to.

The Englishman clearly has some kind of mental block right now, and if he is to win on the PGA Tour, he will need to improve upon the way he thinks down the stretch in big events.

Fleetwood may not have won the FedEx St. Jude Championship on Sunday, but he would have gained even more fans with his post-round interview.

Form is temporary but class is permanent, as they say.
