Who Is Clare Fleetwood? Meet Tommy Fleetwood's Wife

Tommy Fleetwood is one of the world's best players, with eight DP World Tour wins, representing Team Europe in the Ryder Cup, and coming agonizingly close to winning Major Championships.

The likeable Englishman has also faced tough times throughout his career, including a downturn in form that saw him drop to World No. 188 in 2016.

Through the ups and downs, though, his wife Clare Fleetwood (formerly Clare Craig) has remained by his side.

Clare has played a huge part in Fleetwood’s life, both on and off the golf course. She is also the star's manager, and Tommy himself credits her with many of his successes.

Clare grew up in Manchester, England, and spent several years in sports management at Hambric Sports Management, serving as Vice President for Europe.

A longtime friend of British rally driver Richard Burns, Clare also toured alongside him as an assistant.

Following his death from a brain tumor in 2005, a charity was established in his honor, and she served as a trustee of the Richard Burns Foundation.

Clare and Tommy have a son, Franklin (Frankie), who was born in September 2017. Clare also has two sons from a previous relationship.

The pair got married in the Bahamas in December that year and moved to Dubai in early 2022.

They returned from the United Arab Emirates to England in 2026 due to the Middle East conflict.

Fleetwood, who was born in Southport, Merseyside, admitted fears over his family's safety had been a distraction, and told The Guardian: "It is difficult not being able to travel. That has obviously been difficult. But when you know they're fine, that's kind of a relief.

"I think Clare is very relieved now. She feels good and everything. It's just not a great time for so many people in the country.

"It's just unsettling for everyone, really. It's easy for me to say it's been on my mind, but at the same time I'm not the one who was there."

Clare often travels with her husband and was at the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai along with their son when he had one of his biggest achievements of his career to date: the Race to Dubai title in 2017.

Clare has also accompanied Tommy several times at the family-friendly Masters Par-3 Contest.

Clare is Tommy's biggest supporter, especially at the Ryder Cup.

During the 2018 contest at Le Golf National, Tommy and his playing partner Francesco Molinari of Italy won all four of their matches together.

They were dubbed 'Moliwood', with their bromance going viral.

After Europe claimed victory, a video was released of the pair lying in bed with the Ryder Cup.

"Well, I actually caught my husband in bed with another man, and he wants Italian lessons," Clare joked on social media.

"Our son is also named after him. Do I need to worry?"

"I tell my kids all the time the biggest life skill you can have is finding a great woman," Tommy told The Times in 2023, adding: "And I did manage that."

Speaking on a 2023 episode of the Performance People podcast, Clare addressed their 23-year age gap and reflected on her initial hesitations.

Revealing how she originally rejected Fleetwood's advances, she said: "Of course I turned him down. I was like, 'Don't be stupid.'

"The age gap was big news in our circle, so I was a little bit paranoid about what other people were thinking all the time.

"But once we fell in love, that's it. We were in. People saw us and knew it meant something.

"And then it was just navigating through the gossip, basically. And the people who were the doubters have redeemed themselves and admitted they doubted wrongly."
