Fleetwood gets pep talk from Guardiola
saint-quentin-en-yvelines — Ryder Cup rookie Tommy Fleetwood will hope a message of motivation from City manager Pep Guardiola can spur him on to success for Team Europe this week.
Fleetwood, introduced to Guardiola through a mutual friend, was on a Cheshire golf course with the City coach when his side were crowned Premier League champions following Manchester United’s defeat by West Brom.
The pair then struck up a partnership at Wentworth for the celebrity Pro-Am event in May, and Guardiola has shown his support for Fleetwood. “We all have these videos in the room, these motivational videos, and he was one of the guys that sent a message to me,” Fleetwood said. “I’m not sure he’s coming over. I’m sure he’s busy at the weekend but he might make it over. But yeah, we always talk quite a lot.” —
