Pat Mayo downplayed Tommy Fleetwood’s chances at The Masters, explaining Fleetwood’s skill set aligns significantly better with the U.S. Open style layout and test than it does Augusta National. Mayo elaborated Fleetwood’s strengths in precise driving accuracy, effective total ball striking, and strategic course management give him greater upside at U.S. Open venues like Oakmont, where accuracy holds greater currency. Augusta, on the other hand, rewards creativity, length off the tee, and elite short-game proficiency more than Tommy typically demonstrates. While acknowledging Tommy as a well-rounded golfer capable of outperforming expectations, Mayo explicitly concluded Fleetwood’s style would more likely find major success at the U.S. Open than at Augusta.
