When Tommy Fleetwood’s 2018 Open Payout Was Sent To ‘Wrong’ Thomas Fleetwood

Fleetwood’s T12 at Carnoustie turned farcical when the European Tour wired his £120,000 ($160,000) prize to Thomas Fleetwood, a 1959-born Florida club pro at Streamstrong Resort. The American alerted his bank; the Tour called it a clerical error and apologised. Funds were retrieved and Fleetwood later received £137,535 ($183,612). He laughed off the mix-up: “I’ll get on top of that.”
