Rickie Fowler was handed an invite to the PGA Championship, with the decision met with a backlash from a section of online trolls - but the 36-year-old is now fighting back

Rickie Fowler is competing in the Truist Championship this week before competing in his first major of the year which he was invited to after failing to qualify

A classic golf course stood no chance Thursday against the PGA Tour's finest. With rain falling early in the week, Philly Cricket Club was held defenseless in the first round of the 2025 Truist Championship with big names like Rickie Fowler and Collin Morikawa taking full advantage of the easy conditions.

Jupiter residents Rickie Fowler and Dustin Johnson received special invitations by the PGA of America to play in next week's PGA Championship.

Rickie Fowler answered his critics at the Truist Championship with the kind of play that showed he can still be considered a threat to win, even if he actually hasn't taken a tournament since 2023.

The PGA Championship has produced a long list of big-name winners over the last 20 years. But the long shots in the field this week can still hold out some hope by looking back on John Daly and Rich Beem and picturing themselves holding the Wanamaker Trophy over their heads on Sunday.

Fowler is coming off a disappointing season by his standards, especially after winning in 2023 and being selected for the U.S. Ryder Cup team. When asked to grade his 2024 season on the “Son of a Butch” podcast, hosted by Butch’s son, Claude Harmon III, Fowler didn’t sugarcoat it: “About an F,” he said.

From bold outfits to big wins and a high-profile love story, Rickie Fowler’s life on and off the green is full of twists, talent, and one very familiar face carrying his bag. Check all about him.
