Just because you are not up there week-in, week-out or a lot, it doesn't mean you're not playing well. I feel like I played really, really well and just been shy of those Sunday challenges, if you like.""There's not that much to it. We all think about our game so much, and you always are looking for what you could do better or what you've done well and what you need to change. I honestly feel like I've been playing very well and at a very consistent level, but just haven't been, you know, had those weeks where I've had sparks and been right up there at the top and challenged really. But this week's the first one, so" he added.Tommy Fleetwood has a decent record despite no success on the PGA Tour so far.
