Fleetwood’s comments come as the golf world continues to digest Koepka’s move back to traditional competition after two years in the Saudi-backed league.
Fleetwood admitted that every player faces unique choices about where they feel most motivated and fulfilled in the sport.
Tommy Fleetwood opens up on personal goals and Brooks Koepka’s decision
Fleetwood said he understood why Koepka might want to return to the PGA Tour, but also noted that each golfer’s priorities are different.
“Who knows? I think that’s very hard to ask. I think you would have to ask individual players on which – obviously, you’re asking me – but how they feel about it.
“I think in general, people want to play where their goals or dreams are aligned. They want to play in the place where they feel they can chase them,” Fleetwood said.
He added, “Personally, I’m playing where I feel like I can still chase my dreams, and I’m in the best place to be the best golfer I can be. Other people may feel differently.”
Koepka’s decision to return to the PGA Tour marks a major moment in the ongoing shift between the two tours. It signals that some players may be rethinking their long-term future after initial moves to LIV Golf.
Tommy Fleetwood dismisses LIV approach and reaffirms commitment
Fleetwood made it clear that he hasn’t been approached by LIV Golf and remains focused on his current path.
“If I speak for myself, I will always make my decisions for as long as I want to be the best I can be at golf, I’ll make my decisions to play where I feel like I can do that. So that’s what I’m doing,” he said.
“They [LIV Golf] haven’t sniffed around me in this postseason. We don’t really talk about it that much. I haven’t heard of that. I think you definitely see changes, and I think some very good golfers have gone over to LIV and have chosen to go to LIV. It’s probably going to cost a lot of money, right, to get some big-name players.
“I don’t know what their strategy will be or who they will be looking at to go or how they want to go about it, but they don’t talk to me,” he concluded.
Fleetwood’s focus remains clear: to continue improving within the PGA Tour structure and compete against the world’s best players.
For him, it’s less about following trends and more about staying aligned with personal goals, even as golf’s professional landscape continues to evolve.
