Finally. At Sunday's Tour Championship, Tommy Fleetwood, in his 164th PGA Tour start, finally broke through and won in a big way. His first PGA Tour win also made him the FedEx Cup champion — the first player since Chad Campbell in 2003 to make the Tour Championship his first career PGA Tour victory. Fleetwood, who had 30 top-five finishes on Tour before collecting his first career title, including six this season, became the first player to finish inside the top six of the leaderboard after every round of the FedEx Cup Playoffs. With the victory, Fleetwood is projected to move to a career-high No. 6 in the Official World Golf Ranking.
