Tommy Fleetwood produced a brilliant final round of 65 to win the inaugural DP World India Championship by two shots in New Delhi. In the process, he qualified for the Abu Dhabi Championship, the first of the DP World Tour’s season-ending tournaments.
Three weeks after finishing top scorer for Europe in their historic Ryder Cup win on American soil, Fleetwood continued his memorable season by delivering an impressive victory at Delhi Golf Club. The FedExCup champion overturned a two-stroke deficit in an eventful final round, where five birdies in a seven-hole stretch helped him move top of a congested leaderboard and closer to victory.
Fleetwood mixed eight birdies with a lone bogey to end the week on 22 under, two strokes clear of overnight leader Keita Nakajima, with Shane Lowry finishing three strokes back in tied-third alongside Alex Fitzpatrick and Thriston Lawrence.
A chip-in eagle on the final hole lifted Viktor Hovland to tied-sixth alongside Jayden Schaper and Joost Luiten, while Daniel Hillier - briefly two ahead after seven birdies in his first 10 holes on Sunday - dropped back to tied-ninth after two bogeys and a double bogey in his final five holes.
Fleetwood's victory is his eighth on the DP World Tour and first since the 2024 Dubai Invitational, with the latest success also the first with his son watching on-site.
"We were at home last week and we were driving the buggy - I think we were playing golf together - and he [Frankie] just said randomly: 'Do you know what you've never done? You've never won a tournament and then I've been able to run onto the 18th green'," Fleetwood explained.
"I had that written down all week. It was just another opportunity really. There's going to be many more times where I hopefully get the chance to do that, but that was all day today what I had in my mind.
"Could I put myself in a position where I can actually make that moment happen? It's just one of those little things. It means so much to me and that was really cool."
Player Profile
Fleetwood was born in Southport on January 19, 1991. He was a top amateur, winning the Scottish Amateur Strokeplay in 2009 and the English Amateur in 2010 and playing for GB&I in the Walker Cup in 2009. In July 2010 he finished second in the English Challenge on the Challenge Tour, while still an amateur.
He turned pro in 2010 and secured his European Tour card for 2012.
His first victory came in 2013 at the Johnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles. He had to wait until 2017 for his second win, at the Abu Dhabi Championship. He also finished second at the Shenzhen International and was fourth at the US Open. In 2017 he also secured the Race to Dubai.
He won the Abu Dhabi Championship in 2018 and finished second at the US Open after closing with a round of 63. In 2018 he formed an unbeaten partnership with Open champion Francesco Molinari as Europe thrashed the USA in the Ryder Cup at Le Golf National.
In 2019 he finished second behind Shane Lowry at The Open and won the Nedbank Golf Challenge at the end of the year.
He won the 2022 Nedbank Challenge, his first win for three years. In 2024 he won the Dubai Invitational, his seventh victory on the DP World Tour.
He came close to winning the Canadian Open in 2023 but was beaten when Nick Taylor holed an outrageous putt on the first playoff hole.
He finally ended his drought on the PGA Tour by winning the Tour Championship and the Fed Ex Cup in August 2025. It was his 164th start on the PGA Tour and he has made 140 cuts. It was his first win after six runner-up finishes, six thirds, 30 top fives and 44 top 10s. His career earnings in America stand at $43.4m. He came agonisingly close to winning the Travelers Championship earlier in 2025 but three-putted the final green to hand the title to Keegan Bradley and also fell short at the FedEx St Jude, which was won by fellow Englishman Justin Rose.
His victory at the India Championship was his eighth on the DP World Tour.
In 295 starts on the DP World Tour he has won eight times, finished second 13 times, third seven times and has made 232 cuts. He has seven top-five finishes in the majors.
He made his fourth Ryder Cup appearance at Bethpage Black, where he scored four points out of five.
