Moliwood, Part II? Fleetwood, in search of 1st Tour title, leads Players

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. – Just when the U.S. Ryder Cup team was starting to put that Paris pummeling behind them, “Moliwood” has returned.

Just days after Francesco Molinari proved his unique brand of no-frills golf plays well at both Le Golf National and Bay Hill with his two-stroke victory at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, the lighter side of Europe’s unstoppable tandem is also back for a cameo.

This time it’s the PGA Tour flagship event at TPC Sawgrass, where Tommy Fleetwood has surfaced with an effortless 7-under 65 on Thursday to take the early lead at The Players.
