The 22-year old is only two years into his professional career and outlasted two European Tour veterans, in Stephen Gallagher and Ricardo Gonzalez, to win the three-way playoff.
“It’s unbelievable,” Fleetwood said. “I have been up there a lot and not even had a top-five finish and all of a sudden you come away with a win. I’ve always loved the golf course, I’ve always loved Scotland, and it just seems like it was meant to be.”
Using his Nike VR_S Covert driver, Fleetwood averaged over 311 yards off the tee, ranking fourth in the field in driving distance.
In addition to his driver, the Englishman had a full complement of Nike clubs in the bag for his first win:
