Tommy Fleetwood is on a mission to break a long-standing record and secure his first PGA Tour win. The English golfer, currently ranked World No. 15, leads Justin Rose by one stroke at the FedEx St. Jude Championship, setting the stage for an exciting final round.

Fleetwood's season has been marked by consistent high-level play, with seven top-10 finishes and only one missed cut in 18 events. His recent performances have been particularly impressive, with top-3 finishes in playoff events such as the FedEx St. Jude Championship and the first two playoff tournaments.

Despite his extensive career and numerous close calls, Fleetwood has yet to taste victory on the PGA Tour. He has finished runner-up six times, but his record stands at 0 for two on the PGA Tour, according to Justin Ray. However, Fleetwood remains optimistic, viewing each opportunity as a chance to chase his dreams.

Fleetwood's latest title tilt is more impressive due to being soon after a painful defeat at the hands of Keegan Bradley in the Travelers Championship. The English golfer led by one with a hole to play, only to bogey the final hole and lose the tournament. Fleetwood's statement suggests that he has taken this loss as a learning experience, ready to apply those lessons to his final round at TPC Southwind.

Justin Rose, who is aiming to win to secure a spot in Luke Donald's Team Europe roster, will tee off alongside Fleetwood. Rose is a shot back on 13-under-par, providing a strong challenge for Fleetwood in the final round.

Fleetwood is scheduled to tee off at TPC Southwind at 12:40pm local time (6:40pm BST). The English golfer is known for his resilience, having converted three out of six 54-hole leads into wins in his career. Fleetwood's optimism is palpable, as he expressed his eagerness to seize the opportunity tomorrow.

As the final round unfolds, golf fans will be watching closely to see if Fleetwood can finally break his PGA Tour win drought. With his consistent play and determination, it seems that tomorrow could indeed be his day.
