Thomas Detry reflects on winning at the WM Phoenix Open

Thomas Detry had a solid start to his game at the PGA Tour event last week. The first round of the tournament started on February 6 at TPC Scottsdale, with the Belgian golfer playing a round of 66, followed by the next three rounds of 64, 65, and 65 to settle for a total of 24-under.

Following the tournament, during a press conference on February 9, Detry reflected on his victory:

"Incredible. Incredible. I felt nervous yesterday morning, and last night didn't sleep great. I woke up this morning early, 4:00 a.m., couldn't fall back asleep. But then deep inside of me, I kind of really trusted myself.
I felt like I've been doing a lot of really good things in the past to put myself in that position, and I felt like I was kind of ready to win. So deep inside, I was kind of -- yeah, this one nobody was going to take it away from me."

Michael Kim and Daniel Berger settled in second place at 17-under, while Jordan Spieth finished in a tie with Christiaan Bezuidenhout for fourth.

Thomas Detry started his 2025 season on the PGA Tour at The Sentry, where he tied for fifth. However, after a decent start, he struggled in the next few tournaments. He tied for 53rd at the Sony Open in Hawaii, was T15 at the Farmers Insurance Open, and T48 at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
