With an impeccable 4-0-0 record, the Englishman has become the first player in history to achieve a perfect record in team matches twice, writing his name in gold letters in Ryder Cup legend.
THE NUMERICAL FEAT: FOUR WINS, FOUR MASTERFUL PERFORMANCES
Tommy Fleetwood's journey at Bethpage Black is an example of consistency and excellence across the most demanding team golf formats:
| Day | Format | Partner | Opponents | Result | Match Key |
| Friday AM | Foursomes | Rory McIlroy | Morikawa/English | 5&4 | Absolute dominance from the start |
| Friday PM | Fourballs | Justin Rose | DeChambeau/Griffin | 1 up | Close victory on the 18th hole |
| Saturday AM | Foursomes | Rory McIlroy | Morikawa/English | 3&2 | Tactical superiority demonstrated |
| Saturday PM | Fourballs | Justin Rose | Scheffler/DeChambeau | 3&2 | Triumph over USA's biggest names |
LIVING HISTORY: THE RECORDS THAT NOW BELONG TO FLEETWOOD
An Unprecedented Achievement
The Record Man: Fleetwood is the first player in Ryder Cup history to achieve a 4-0-0 record in team matches twice (2018 and 2025), a feat that underscores a unique mindset in modern golf.
Untouchable Pair: With Rory McIlroy, they have consolidated their foursomes unbeaten record this edition, confirming "Fleetwood Mac" as one of the most lethal associations ever seen.
Absolute Leader: He leads the tournament's key statistics, especially in "strokes gained," demonstrating ruthless efficiency.
The Man for Decisive Moments
His Friday afternoon victory alongside Justin Rose by 1 up against DeChambeau and Griffin proved his nerve under maximum pressure. When every shot counted, Fleetwood kept his cool to secure the point that solidified Europe's lead, a moment that broke the American momentum.
PURE VERSATILITY: TWO PARTNERS, THE SAME EFFICIENCY
The most remarkable thing about Fleetwood's performance is his ability to shine with partners of different styles:
With McIlroy: Power and Precision
The "Fleetwood Mac" pairing demonstrated lethal chemistry, sweeping the Morikawa/English duo in both foursomes sessions with a game that combined McIlroy's power with Fleetwood's relentless precision.
With Rose: Experience and Determination
In his partnership with Justin Rose, Fleetwood showed his tactical maturity. The Saturday afternoon match against Scheffler and DeChambeau was a masterclass in pressure golf, defeating the world No. 1 and one of the most charismatic figures on the American team.
THE DEFINITIVE DUEL: FLEETWOOD VS THOMAS
Today he faces his final test against Justin Thomas, in a clash that summarizes two opposing philosophies:
Fleetwood: British serenity, the methodical game, consistency as the flag.
Thomas: American fire, overflowing passion, the heart of Team USA.
What’s at stake: If Fleetwood wins, he will join the elite club of players who have achieved five points in five matches in the competition's history—a feat of absolute perfection and a statement of intent. Furthermore, his point would almost certainly be the one that mathematically seals the Cup for Europe. Thomas isn't just playing for USA's honor; he's playing to stop history.
As Europe closes in on victory at Bethpage Black, Tommy Fleetwood has sealed his legacy not just as an excellent player, but as a true Ryder Cup legend. His name is now written among the greats of the competition, and today he can sign the chapter of perfection.
