The heartbreaking reason Tommy Fleetwoods spouse,…
Tommy Fleetwood’s household was very a lot top of thoughts last month when he captured his first-ever PGA Tour victory at the Tour Championship, even though some family members weren’t bodily current to witness the $10 million FedEx Cup win.
Speaking to reporters Wednesday forward of the BMW PGA Championship, the Englishman was requested about his household’s whereabouts during the victorious weekend in Atlanta, revealing his stepson was recovering from major surgical procedure and that his spouse, Clare, was aiding in the recovery.
“Our middle boy, Mo [Murray], had a spinal operation just over a month ago now. So they were unable to travel,” Fleetwood said. “Actually, the week of Memphis, they were in the hospital and he was recovering, and then eventually got home just before we got home. He had three and a half weeks in the hospital, so that’s why they weren’t there, but Oscar came out to be with me.”
