Tommy Fleetwood, like many of his fellow professionals, is currently balancing his time between the likes of the PGA Tour and TGL.
One of Fleetwood’s TGL shots didn’t register properly, but his Los Angeles Golf Club side still managed to beat Rory McIlroy’s Boston Common Golf.
Fleetwood, Collin Morikawa and Justin Rose emerged victorious from the latest TGL match at Florida’s SoFi Center, clinching a dominant 6-2 win.
It comes after Fleetwood took on the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, where he finished T22 on what was his 2025 PGA Tour season debut.
McIlroy won the tournament, which was played at a time when the PGA Tour has come under close scrutiny from fans and indeed some of its players.
Tommy Fleetwood praises ‘unbelievably high’ standard on PGA Tour amid future concerns
Justin Thomas sent a letter to all PGA Tour players, encouraging them to give broadcasters much more access in a bid to provide more entertainment.
And Charley Hoffman has followed suit with a letter of his own, which among other issues discussed slow play and players taking on event outside of the PGA Tour regular season.
Asked in his latest TGL press conference for his reaction to the letter, Fleetwood said: “Look, I think everybody in the world of golf at the moment is trying their best to obviously give their opinion on what is best for the game and what is best for golf and what is best for their respective tours.

“I don’t particularly try and look too much into those things. I think obviously what everybody says, people are going to agree with, disagree with. Some of those opinions will be valid.
“I play golf all around the world. I feel like I’m very lucky to do that. I play two tours, and now I feel like I’m lucky to be part of a style of golf here in TGL in an arena that is different. It comes through a new audience. I feel lucky that I get to do those things really.
“You can only really look at things from a personal standpoint on how you feel about things. I like how my, sort of, life as a professional golfer is, and I think that the ability to play in these events is really cool.
“You look at the guys that are playing, I think everybody is excited about the opportunity and really, really enjoying it.
“Nobody really knows what the future of golf holds and we’ve seen that over the last two years. You don’t know what direction things are going to take.
“But for now, I think we have a lot of good initiatives. I think that the standard of golf is unbelievably high with the talent of golf out there.
“I think you look last week at Pebble Beach, like being out there playing it and then seeing the scores that come in, I think that’s an unbelievably high level.
“Then things like this are really, really cool. I can’t wait for my kids to see this. I think they’re going to be amazed by it, and I think kids that would see this event would actually be really excited about the prospect of playing golf and maybe start indoors somewhere, which is something that I’m guessing the three of us never did.
“So I think there’s a lot of good going on in the world of golf at the moment, and of course everybody wants to continue to improve it. But I think there’s a lot of things to be happy about, as well.”
Tommy Fleetwood helps Los Angeles top TGL after win over Boston Common
Along with his PGA Tour and TGL commitments, world number 11 Fleetwood continues to play on the DP World Tour.
Alongside the likes of McIlroy and LIV Golf’s Tyrrell Hatton, the Englishman took part in the Dubai Desert Classic last month.
Such commitments aren’t likely to slow down anytime soon, particularly if TGL manages to continue building momentum.
His Los Angeles side are now top of the standings at the innovative event, and return to action against Atlanta Drive GC later this month.
On the PGA Tour meanwhile, McIlroy won at Pebble Beach for the first time with a score of 21-under, closely followed by Shane Lowry’s 19-under.
