They say you should never meet your heroes but if Poom Saksansin keeps up his form at this week's WGC-FedEx St. Jude Invitational he could end up playing with his.
The Thai is teeing it up this week at TPC Southwind thanks to his victory at the BNI Indonesian Masters where he held off a field including Henrik Stenson and Justin Rose to win the trophy.
It was another Ryder Cup star he had his eye on in Memphis, though, as he admitted he was eager to get the autograph of Tommy Fleetwood and after play finished on Thursday, the Englishman duly obliged.
The duo both finished day one on two under and if they match each other on day two, they could be signing cards rather than gloves together come the weekend.
We made sure Poom got Tommy’s autograph today 😀@TommyFleetwood1 #WGCFedEx pic.twitter.com/yOvkR2onzt
