Rickie Fowler is deserving of some congratulations on Sunday evening.
The former Oklahoma State Cowboys golfer, known for rocking all-orange on Sundays, hasn’t been in contention at big tournaments in a while. Fowler, now 36, was once viewed in a similar group to Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, Dustin Johnson, etc. He was No. 4 in the world in 2016. Previously, he was the No. 1 ranked amateur golfer in the world for 36 weeks in 2007 and 2008.

Fowler has fallen on tough times in recent years, going through different swing coaches, strategies and more. He didn’t play in The Masters in four of the past five years. He didn’t play in the U.S. Open in three of the past five years. He’s finished in the Top 10 of a major tournament just twice in six years.
However, Fowler is making a big move in the FedEx Championship.
