Tommy Fleetwood

It's really, really cool when you win a tournament. And it's great for the people who go on the journey with you.

I've pictured winning the U.S. Open a lot of times before.

Never rush through the stoke. Nervous or not, take your time, and the result is almost always better.

You can roll the ball a long way with a stroke that has the force of a five-yard chip. Good rhythm and less effort are how you control the putterface and, in turn, the ball.

Good putting starts with understanding the difference between a stroke and a hit. You want to make a stroke and let the energy of that back-and-through motion carry the ball to the hole.

I have one idiosyncrasy that helps my driving accuracy. I grip down on the club. This makes it easier to control the clubface.

Every round I have three little targets. Maybe it is just 'talk to myself properly' or 'stand up straight on the greens.' One day I might say, 'Don't talk to anyone.' On another I'll be a lot chattier. Or I might say, 'smile all the way round.' Little things. But little things turn into bigger things.

It was such a relief to win. You tell yourself you can do it, but until you do you don't know for sure. And I found out I can do it by doing what I do, not what others do.

When I started playing well all I wanted to do was win. Which was a problem. When it became clear I wasn't going to win, I would get fed up. I played poorly on a few Sundays, finishing 50th because I wasn't interested in finishing 30th. But I've learned not to do that.

I was a big kid who could putt well.

This is my third year in a row where I'm one of those players that has a chance to win the Race to Dubai. I just think it's important this year that I take the experiences of 2017 and 2018 into it and know that it still takes a lot to do it and it's not in my hands at all.

It's hard if you don't quite feel on your game to go out and put scores on the board.

The Ryder Cup is an event people dream about and sometimes it can only happen once.

I think there are certain events that would be an amazing torch for a turn in how the world is getting on, and the Ryder Cup would be one of them that is like a shining light at the end of the tunnel.

I think as golfers, whenever you've had a long period off, you always sort of plan for a bit of rust. Not necessarily how you hit it, but just how you go about playing golf.

I have plenty of improving to do.

The majors and big events eventually bring the best players to the top so if I play well or not I always find playing the big events very motivating because it shows you where the game is at.

I think I can compete in any company.

I've used Nike clubs since I was 13.

I tried changing my swing because I thought it would make me better. I thought it would make me a world-class golfer. I was a bit naive and I was a bit silly and just got going the wrong way.

I had a really rough time from sort of July 2015 to July 2016. I was really struggling with my game.

I think the winning scores are always pretty much the same but it's a very big deal to sort of prove yourself against some of the world's best.

Everyone wants to look to the future and into the past. I stay focused on now.

You don't know where your career is going to take you. It might all go wrong and I might never play in a Masters again. So it's important to keep things real.

At Isleworth, they get the greens up to the sort of speeds we see at Augusta, so it's really helpful.

When you're growing up, what it's really all about is playing so well the crowd get into it, and the roars you hear are those that you are creating.

My ultimate goal in life is to be the best player in the world.

You know, some of the performances, I have put myself on the world stage a bit more.

There's a lot of worse things going on in the world than me hitting a bad five wood.

Of course it's a big moment for me in my career if I could win on the PGA Tour.

I think at the end of the day, winning is very difficult.

I'm playing in the best tournaments in the world with the best players in the world. That's good stuff. It's great. The extra attention hasn't made a difference to me.

I have the confidence knowing if the game is on I can win the big events. That's a massive difference. Until you've done it and proven it to yourself, you can't know if you can.

There's always a sense of, 'Oh, if I change my irons, they might not be as good or might not perform as well.'

Winning is just such a good feeling.

My game is getting better all the time. I'm consistently working hard, and I feel like I'm always doing the right things.

Golf has been the sport of the social elite, with lawyers and doctors. But I have never been embarrassed by the looks I've been given by others. I have sometimes been looked at with condescension and it still happens now, but I know how to deal with it - I know whose opinions count.

Seriously, as a father, I want golf to be cool for my children. Easy to access. If they want to play in tracksuits and trainers, why not?

It is not a cliche to say golf is for the well-off. It is the reality. But the old system which used to make it elite is fading away.

I remember going to The Open in 1998 aged seven and snatching a picture of Tiger walking past.

If I'm going to be away from my family then I want to make the practice count more.

Being managed by your wife means you just get told what to do all the time as opposed to some of the time.

I'd much rather be in this position where people might be talking about me as a contender than turning up and sort of being a no-show.

I had a few moments in Hong Kong, the odd minute where you sit down and reflect more than anything of having that ticked off in your career. It's something special.

I always try and watch how business people think. I like to read a lot about business people. I'm not going to say I've got a great business mind, but I enjoy learning from the world of business.

It's a different style of golf; that stands out for sure when you come over to America. The style of play and the golf courses in America. Most golf courses in America either stretch your game, and test different elements of your game and the margins for error are smaller.

If you like dry humor, Henrik Stenson thinks he's very funny, but I think I'm very funny in a dry sense as well.

You never really get a chance to sit back and look at where you are or what you've done. If you stop working, you're gonna get overtaken quickly. You can't really take your foot off the gas - until you decide to pack it in.

I shaved my head once and learned that I've got, like, a cone head. So I'm never gonna do that again.

The American fans have taken to me, so I'm very grateful for that.
