Tommy Fleetwood happy with change coming to the PGA Tour soon, ‘I think it’s exciting’
Big changes are coming to the PGA Tour playoffs. After years of the PGA Tour postseason feeling flat and inconsequential, CEO Brian Rolapp is turning the playoffs into a match-play event.
Tommy Fleetwood, the 2021 Tour Championship victor, is thrilled by the impending shift in the PGA Tour's playoff structure. The PGA Tour CEO, Brian Rolapp, plans to transition the postseason into a match-play tournament, starting in 2028. Fleetwood, who has excelled in match play, especially with Rory McIlroy in Team Europe, is enthusiastic about the alteration.
He expressed his excitement, stating, "I think it’s exciting. I think any time there’s change, I think it’s something that’s fresh and something that’s exciting." Fleetwood further elaborated on the significance of separating the best player at the end of the season from the playoffs, praising the prospect of a major transformation for the PGA Tour.
