Tommy Fleetwood clinched his first PGA Tour win in superb fashion, triumphing at the Tour Championship at East Lake.
Fleetwood edged out Patrick Cantlay and Russell Henley by three shots, claiming his maiden PGA Tour win from his 164th start.
He had previously come agonisingly close to success, but finally held his nerve to emerge victorious at the Tour Championship.
The Englishman carded rounds of 64, 63, 67 and 68 to finish on 18-under, helping him win the Tour Championship and the FedExCup.
Fleetwood also earned $10million for his third-place finish at the third and final FedExCup Playoffs tournament.

Fleetwood is hugely popular, and that has been proven by the endless support he has received since winning the Tour Championship.
Such support continued on his Instagram when he shared an image of himself holding the trophy with the words: “How was your weekend!?”
LIV Golf star Tyrrell Hatton replied: “Congrats mate!” while his fellow PGA Tour player Min Woo Lee said: “Congrats Tommy!”
There was also a simple but heartwarming message from the PGA Tour’s account saying: “You did it, champ.”

It really was a beautiful moment for the champion, who time and time again had to watch others steal his limelight.
But he was determined to avoid that same fate at East Lake, where he held off several high-profile names to come out on top.
Henley and Cantlay finished T2 on 15-under, with Scottie Scheffler, Corey Conners and Cam Young finishing T4 on 14-under.
The PGA Tour schedule now takes a break before continuing next month at the Procore Championship, hosted by Silverado Resort in Napa, California.
