Tommy Fleetwood: The PGA star with $31 million and zero wins to his name

Tommy Fleetwood has played top-level golf for nearly ten years. He grew up in Southport, England, and learned on wind-swept links around the UK. Today at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland, he is chasing his first major win.

He has earned over $30 million on the PGA Tour without a single victory. Tommy Fleetwood has been so close runner-up at the 2019 Open and again at the 2025 Travelers Championship yet the win has always slipped away.

Tommy Fleetwood’s money record and near wins

Tommy Fleetwood is the only golfer in the top‑25 world rankings without a PGA Tour win. He has played in about 160 PGA Tour events and earned more than $31.3 million, making him the first non-winner to cross the $30 million mark.

Byeong Hun An ranks next as a PGA Tour non-winner with $21 million.

Tommy Fleetwood came closest to winning during the 2025 Travelers Championship in Cromwell, Connecticut, in late June. He led by three strokes but bogeyed on holes 16 and 18. He missed a short par putt on 18, allowing Keegan Bradley to win. After the final round on June 22, Tommy Fleetwood said, “I didn’t hit that many bad shots… it will be very, very sweet” when he finally wins.

Bradley praised him, saying, “He’s an unbelievable player and fighting to get his first win”.At Royal Portrush, site of the 153rd Open from July 17–20, he again flashes promise on links terrain. Tommy Fleetwood finished second here in the 2019 Open behind Shane Lowry. He opened with a stunning 8-under‑63 in round three and spoke after, “I had such a special time there… still look at that Open… being that close to achieving a lifelong dream”.
