Watch Tommy Fleetwood's best moments from Round 2 at The Open Championship.
Video Transcript
So whatever Fleetwood decides, has to keep it down.
If this floats, there's a bunker front right, which very much in play.
So used to, attuned to these conditions.
Shouldn't be an issue.
Looking maybe left a bit.
Whatever they decided, it was pretty much spot on.
Took it straight out.
Another right to left to, for the birdie.
Not surprisingly, a huge round of applause for the local man, Fleetwood.
Certainly the favorite for the local galleries.
Flag in right to left for Fleetwood.
45 feet.
Listen to the roar if he holes this.
Well, a great roar at the second.
Anguish and applause at the third.
Comes up just short.
You know that Fleetwood is trying just as hard for the crowd that are supporting him as he is for himself.
Well, you come from a tee box that is a little bit elevated.
Maybe the firmness of the green?
Now go figure.
It doesn't matter anyway when you see these two shots.
121 ball flight there.
That was in the over.
That was in the 68%.
A Fleetwood roar at Birkdale as like the other.
All the love of all the people, and Tommy Fleetwood moving in the right direction.
A nerve tester.
Ooh.
Tommy.
Just, just His faithful supporters egging him on.
Two under.
Get in the hole!
Come on, Tommy!
Come on, Tommy!
Looks good.
Is good.
And Tommy Fleetwood in front of the thousands on the 15th green.
Up the hill.
A little up the hill.
Oh, rock on, Tommy.
What a beauty.
Right in the center of the cup.
They go ballistic behind the green.
Imagine what it's like standing there.
It's like in the middle of Wembley and someone cheering for you.
You scored a goal.
The hairs on your neck just stand up.
Excellent stuff.
Hear them roar.
Watch this.
That's what they've been waiting for.
Yeah, back-to-back birdies for Fleetwood.
Three under.
It was the perfect place to find one, wasn't it?
Yeah, yeah.
Feels like it's gonna just track back a hair.
Get in!
From right to left towards the end.
It's a funny angle.
Not quite the heroics of the 15th, but probably the tidiest of 34s.
Progress being made.
Boom!
It's the loudest boom I've ever heard for a two-foot putt.
Birdie number five today for Tommy Fleetwood.
