We all know that Rickie Fowler’s 2024 golf season was disappointing to say the least. The golfer’s career faced a significant decline in 2024 with average results and no wins. His absence from the FedEx Cup playoffs was another controversial decision in his already declining career. On top of that, his last PGA Tour appearance at the British Open ended with a disappointing 13 overs and a T71.
Fowler’s struggles in the 2024 season are impressive considering his impressive 2023 showing, which saw him finish 16th in the FedEx Cup and win the FedEx St. Jude Championship. Fans have Fowler on their tails and expect more from him, especially after he earned 24 points at the Rocket Mortgage Classic in 2023, but he has yet to finish in the top 10 in 2024. But fans also know why the golfer has been absent from the course: The golfer gave birth to a baby girl, “Nelly,” a few weeks ago, and the golf industry was overjoyed at the news. So it’s fair to say that Rickie Fowler isn’t too affected by the difficulties on the course and is choosing to remain optimistic. He made a remarkable comeback at the Sanderson Farms Championship, finishing tied for 16th at 17 under par. So fans are eagerly waiting to see if he can come back and regain his form at the Shriners Open in Las Vegas. Yes, the player is ready to show his skills at TPC Summerlin, and his latest post showed it. “Cruising Vegas @shrinersopen,” the caption read.
The golfer seems more excited than fans to be back in the game. But how did fans react to the news? Well, they have always supported them.
Visitors show support for Ricky Fowler
One of the things we all can rely on golf fans is the cruel reality they have. What we want to say is that they will always speak out if they don’t like something in the golf world, and that’s the same way they show their support. And that’s exactly what happened when Fowler posted his last post. It all started with a fan saying “Ricky, let’s do it!!!” There was also a “welcome” welcoming the golfer back to the game.
What’s your perspective on:
Can Rickie Fowler bounce back in 2024, or is his prime time behind him?
And well can you blame them? Fowler is known to be fans’s favorite. Even with McCarley de TGL, Fowler joined TGL, but “Ricky was one of the most popular players on the PGA tour. He is a fan favorite of all ages and backgrounds. We welcome him to TGL as Ricky’s dynamic personality and competitiveness will thrive in the TGL environment.
Another fan said, “You’re a champion, Ricky,” and they are absolutely right! While the golfer has yet to win a major, he still has a solid record of 6 PGA Tour wins and two European Tour wins. “Bring back that winning fire, Rick!” one fan said, while another said, “Let’s go, amigos.” The fan enthusiasm is clear proof that orange fever is still alive. Rickie Fowler began wearing orange on the Sunday of each tournament in honor of his alma mater, Oklahoma State University, where orange and black are the school colors.
