Tommy Fleetwood gets honest about crowd at the 2025 Ryder Cup

Tommy Fleetwood was subject to a lot of scrutiny along with the rest of his European teammates at last week’s Ryder Cup. As he tees it up at this week’s Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, he gave his honest views on playing at away grounds.While the constant heckling Team Europe was subjected to was difficult to deal with, Fleetwood stated that the players cannot stand up to each and every one in the stands. The Englishman explained it further by saying that not everyone on the grounds that week behaved the same way.Here’s a look at what Tommy Fleetwood had to say about the crowd at the 2025 Ryder Cup (via ASAP Sports):”There’s a big difference between – like there’s a big difference between a hostile environment and personal comments. Again, I think we were all prepared for it…Like I say, how many people were there? 50,000 people? 60,000 people? You can’t have a go at everyone because the majority don’t do that. I have no hard feelings about it at all. Like I said, it helps that we won, obviously. It’s hard to tell 50,000 people to act the right way. I think that’s one of the amazing things about the Ryder Cup is the home fans or at way fans and the atmosphere that it creates.” View this post on Instagram Instagram PostTommy Fleetwood also stated that he had several close friends who were Americans present at Bethpage Black last week.
