This was requested so much, sorry it took so long but these videos take so long to make haha, hope you enjoy, if you did take a second to give it a like, thank you and have a great day ❤️
Thanks for another great video. I really love this channel and appreciate your work and effort!
Great video - and timely, given the past two scores Rickie has posted. -5 at the British Open final round, and -7 at the opener of the 3M.
I mean, Ricky is damn good and Im sure he will win a major within the next 5 or 6 years. But again maybe not. Garcia not winning a major untill he was 37 just proves how difficult the PGA has become, especially major championships. Fact is Fowler is one of the most popular golfers and his life seems pretty interesting and fun to me. I know 90% of pga professionals would have done anything to have the success Ricky has had.
Man, you DID put a lot of work into this video! Great job!
Come on man. Any pro golfer that says there not in it for the money is full of sh$t. No one is criticizing Anthony Kim for making a boat load of cash and walking away from the game altogether. Arnold Palmer and Mark McCormick created the model way back in the day for endorsement deals. Blame them instead of hating on a dude making a living. Any of us would do the same if we could
I went to High School with Rickie, he was a year older than me, but I knew him and his sister. This was a pretty good summary and it was cool seeing the old pictures at the MVGR. My first job was working at the driving range where he grew up as a ball picker and range crew. I will never forget one day when working there, we were both about 17. He was lined up on 1 corner of the range tee line and aiming at the opposite corner, a solid 315 yds or so to the fence with a small crowd gathered around him. He was bombing 1 after another after another over that far fence into the creek. It was quite a sight to see and I knew at the time I was watching something special, but had no idea how far he would go. Rick is one hell of a golfer and has proven himself worthy of playing with the top in the world on so many occasions, I'll never understand why people are so hard on professionals, they were just average Joe's at one point too. If you've ever played golf, you know it's the hardest game in the world so to be on top consistently is really a pipe dream. The moments when players are in the zone playing their best are what its all about. I'm looking forward to Rick having more of these in the future. Huge fan still dude, keep up the good work!
Wow amazing!
Underrated comment
True.. What Non Golfers don't realize is that there's a LOT of talented & younger players at the TOP.. The Field is Stronger, Skillful & Experienced.. So to be top 25, Top 10 or runner up..is NO Easy feat... To Win a Major is Destiny..To build & prosper Life around GOLF is a Dream..
cracking story, thanks for sharing 👍
I bet he was really popular with the ladies in high school. Being that talented and good looking he must of had a blast.
"What happened to Rickie Fowler?" ...I'll tell you what happened to Rickie Fowler. He made a boatload of money, has a beautiful wife, a great lifestyle and seems to be really descent guy. That's what happened.
Living the dream really
Well said 👍
Well said.....
And never won a major
@@DTB1995 neither have you. and you have way less money than him and ya wife prob busted
The guy has had a solid career and made a ton of money. Let him live his life however he wants. I’ve always enjoyed watching him play.
Now that he’s 30 years old, married, and expecting his first kid I suspect he’ll settle down and start winning. Oh, and he has way more than $6.2M in the bank. Dude is in every commercial segment on Golf Channel. I ain’t mad at him…
@L E you aight?
@L E grow up
@@rhettsycoplando4064 not really true though is it.
What’s wrong with everyone?
This Kid has accomplished way more than anybody, he’s worked his ass off on getting where he is, he is one of my favorite players in the PGA, Good coverage of his Bio, it’s good to see great things happening to great people, Enjoy your life Rickie !!
He seems like a real nice guy. He has made a great career and now is a family man. Good for him. He’s doing him.
Rickie doesn’t need to prove anything. He has created an amazing life for himself.
@L E awwww you sad? Haha 🥺
Nothing wrong if you just want to be a journeyman, but he had more potential than that.
Already think his time has passed. The new generation is just so much better than him.
@L E Is he as old as that? Oh dear.
In that case with the likes of Zalatoris, Schauffle, De Chambeau, Hovland, Morikawa, Rahm etc around I don't see Fowler having a better chance now than when he was in his 20's
I dony think Spieth is that amazing to be fair, very streaky, but he has three Majors, Kopeka has four, Rory four and Fowler has none.
@L E Don't get me wrong, I'd swap my career for Fowler's in an instant, but if I was Fowler I wouldn't be content to not have done more in the game, especially given the hype and the sort of players he's been compared to.
. Of course not everyone can win Majors, you just have to look at exceptional players like Montgomerie, Donald, Westwood and even Stricker and Kucher to see that, but Fowler will get to the end of his career and be disappointed if he doesn't achieve a bit more than he has, well if I was him I would.
Is Ricky happy ?
I think very much so, and that's what counts at the end of the day.
So all the dissing about expectations and being an ad boy is bs. Expecting good things is what makes people unhappy.
Doesn’t matter to me, he’s still one of my favorites to watch.
Me too.
Been that way since I first seen him at the Scottish Open many years ago.
He can continue to do 100 commercials for all I care, as long as he's happy, the hell with everyone else's opinion!!!
What rickie does doesnt matter aslong as he enjoys it and is Happy
Rickie doesn't owe anyone anything. Do what makes you happy bro! Rickie will always be one of my favorite golfers. Guy is a solid player and most importantly a solid person.
Nobody owes anyone anything but let's be real he hadn't been relevant on tour for a few years .
Thank you for making this video. Rickie is truly one of a kind and still remains my favorite golfer. We are our own worst critics so, just imagine how he has felt through the years. Keep your head up Rickie and never forget you will always have fans that will support you.
Great video, he’s my favorite player since 2010 and is still my favorite player to this date ❤️ let’s go Ricky!
Favorite player and you don’t even know how to spell his name😪
This video is sideways. It's like criticizing a career .300 hitter for never winning the batting title. Multiple tour victories, makes a TON of cash, has a wonderful and fab-looking wife, and is super popular. I repeat AJ, the whole thing is sideways!!!
@@Mrbananaice17 what a great comment. You must be fun at parties 😂🤡
Because it’s a phony vanilla comment.
I bet a staggering number of professional golfers would love to have Ricky's career as it stands right now.
Rickies role on tour has always more so been being a charachter. Yes he has won and put up some great performances, but his charisma and ability to draw people into the game is part of the reason why he’s so loved and also won rookie of the year over Rory mcilroy. Anyone who played junior competitive golf in the years 2011-2013 like myself will probably remember half the field in every tournament wearing that orange shirt and the puma flatbill or other rickie Fowler inspired clothing. He brought a lot of people into golf. And if you were ever at the WM Phoenix open, he was like a magnet, drawing every single spectator in to watch him no matter what place he was in
Other than Phil, Rickie draws the biggest crowd in Phoenix. He's just a fun guy to watch play golf.
straight facts
What charisma are you talking about he has the personality of a rock
Daniel Barwatt yeah you’ve clearly never paid attention to prime Rickies career. But I’ll let the likes from the community/creator themselves do the talking dumbass. Thanks for letting us know you started watching golf a couple months ago
@@jpstpeter5516 Of course you revert to name calling because you can't even answer the question..ive watched Rickie countless times and he never showed any emotion or personality whatsoever..if its his clothing that makes him popular then people clearly arent fond of him for who he is..pretty typical of people only caring about materialism..also how about answering the question instead of being emotional
Fantastic video, Ricky has Won more in life than some of the other Pro golfers. He is married and makes his relationship a priority, now that's someone to look up to.
Agreed 100%
Rickie is a personal friend. I can tell you with perfect accuracy and conviction, he is unique in so many great ways, that what he brought to golf was far beyond his time on the course. I never cared for golf until i met Rickie. His wins are just icing on a very large cake.
Man I’d love to have a signed anything from him. My golf attire is inspired by him
@@AlexA-cb1bj I love his golf attire. It makes him even more fun to watch.
Rickie will be back. A great story. Thanks for sharing your hard work on this.
I think this is the new reality of golf. Tiger inspired such an interest in the game that the standards are increasingly difficult to meet as youngsters took up the game. I hope Ricky can get back on a winning streak; likewise with Rory.
Ya the earnings are ridiculous its easy to become complacent and stop trying..Tiger was one of the most determined athletes of all time..he made sure to leave his mark on the game
Not so much Rory.
What winning streak that's the whole point he can't close the deal except for commercials
I’ll always rembr Folwer enthusiastically cheering his friends & competitors after narrowly losing in Majors. He seemed genuinely happy for others when it would’ve been much easier to sulk.
He's still one of my favorites, and a real gentleman.
Nice documentary. Very informative. While Rickie Fowler hasn’t won a major, he did win the Players. Hope to see him in contention on Sundays again. The game is more exciting with him. Thanks for putting this short documentary together.
One of my favorite players. Sometimes you have to dim the lights to see the spark.
Why does this story have a sad tone to it?? This guy is a success, and a smart, rich businessman.
People's expectations for him are high, he's a great player and I love watching him play. I hope wins a Major.
BTW trump Lost.
@@Mark-ok8ss, since you brought it up, no, Trump absolutely did not lose the 2020 Election. You have to be a certain type of "special" to actually think Joe Biden received 81 million votes and came back in the middle of the night to win every swing state by a miraculously small margin. My God man, wake up.
@@Mark-ok8ss lol trump lost? Nah. This administration wasn’t voted in. It was installed. Open your eyes
Still love to watch Rickie play, winning or losing. Something about the 10 year wall that so many of his peer have hit as well. Is the game just not fun any more? Have we made enough money? Respect to Rickie and the whole flat bill crew from his time, over half of them are fading fast. All of them have forgot more about the game of golf then I will ever learn.
Great video. I'm a big fan of Rickie Fowler, not just of his golf game, but how he carries himself, his interaction with the fans, he's the whole package. One of the first names I look for after a round.
He’s done a lot for the sport. He has nothing to prove. Also, love the golfer’s comment about how Ricky is in it for the money 🤣. Well, it’s his career so…
Exactly. I haven’t heard anyone turn down tournament winnings because they’re in it for ‘the love of the game’
Exactly. Never understood the hate. I work my job which I love for the money to pay for my life. My job is not my life.
@@gsp4prez People don't hate him they criticize him because hes not as good as advertised and he never wanna major also I don't understand what makes him so marketable he has the personality of a rock
not as good as advertised? The fuck? And you do realize how hard it is to win a major? He's come close multiple times. Something you and the most of us could never say. He's in the top 150 in the world you realize that right. The 150 best players in the whole world. And he's only fuckin 30 years old. He has a wife and a kid now and probably didn't want to dedicate every waking minute to golf which is really what's required to stay in the top 25-top 10 in the world. He's made millions I'd say he's a solid golfer. Competitive golf probably just isn't the priority right now. And again he's only 30 he could make it his priority next year get hot and go on a run. He definitely has the skill still to win a major.
8 top 5 major finishes.... Couple better drives couple more fairways and greens hit couple more made putts and he could've been a winner of a major easily.
Loved this.
😆 Oosthuizen please!
don't forget to update your "Documentaries" playlist on your channel to include the new ones.
Look at his wife, he is winning!
That's his major lol
Exactly...lot more to life than just golf. However, it does pay the bills.
She will more than likely take half his current shit and future shit in divorce court
@Tony you'll never know
@@harorider96 I hope she doesn't do for his career what Kandi Mahan did for Hunter's...
Great video. Always enjoyed watching Ricky. Good luck to him.
He's has been my favourite golfer on Tour for years now. Just like when Mike Weir was on tour I immediately look for Rickies name on the scoreboard. He is juggling a lot and has a wife whom he adores so it's not just golf 100% of his time. He has so many commitments. The stats don't lie. The difference between top 10 and top 60 or 70 is fractions. Hope he focuses on his marriage and future family...
I'm a Weir fan as well. He's had to grind through some health issues for years but seems to be playing very well the last few months. Class dude. A grinder. I wish nothing but the best for him.
He’s still there every week. I think people don’t realize how hard it is to compete on the PGA
I do. I won three majors
Alot of people do realize how difficult it is to compete in any form of golf... let alone a PGA tournament. That's why we're here in RUclips' comments section.
@@tanginicholls207 Amazing insight.
Hardest pro "league" there is
The dudes living his best life. he made golf a career, and has made 30 plus million while doing so. how many people can say that!?!?! I personally could care less where hes ranked. Hes a phenomenal golfer and really fun to watch !
Exactly lol who cares hes loaded
I am now a Fowler fan. Thanks for the video. ✌🏻
Lol. I love how everyone always knows what someone else needs to be doing with their life, yet no clue what one should be doing with their own.
What exactly made you come to this conclusion
Agreed!! Rickie is a stand-up guy, and should be admired for each and every thing he has decided to do. His accomplishments in golf are phenomenal, and he's plenty young enough to put things in high gear when the time is right. Any criticism of his decisions is SO UNBECOMING of someone like Faldo. Fowler will lap the field as soon as he is good and damn well ready!!
Winning has been fun through his golf years but loving people and loving life and family is his special feature. Taught early by his loving family he has gathdred friends, a great wife and a beautiful daughter to share life with. Golf is fun with him playing- shown through the years he got many wins and a PLAYERS win which is incredible and as important as a major. Through thr years he has been an incredible role model for children and with his great true smile for Sponsors too. Now he has built a wonderful life with not only sponsorships but other businesses. Play Rickie-- win if you can but we just love your life and whatever you do-- we are proud!
One of my favorite golfers of all time. What he brought to the game, at a time when the game needed it was something special!!!
ha ha ha
@@robfeeney4909 what so funny CLOWN!!!
Starts swinging good, gets bored, starts tinkering with his swing, typical golfer
And your a Typical keyboard warrior 🙄
Who lives with his grandma
This is probably coming from a Walmart greeter at best, mother's basement dwelling, World Jerk Off Champ who will only dream of having a life like Ricky's.
@@harronfn4845 if you get mad at that you must have a really tough time on the internet lol
Like Padraig Harrington.
He was my favorite since I first started watching him. I'll always cheer for him.
Leave the guy alone! He has done and is doing just fine!
I've always been a Fowler fan.
Wins, runner ups, whatever. He's an amazing golfer.
Seems to me this man is living an amazing, accomplished life. Winning is too many times confused with success.
Likewise popularity is too many times confused with greatness.
Not if you are talking about golf success. Yes you can make a shit ton of money coming in 10th place on the PGA tour. You will be a financial success no doubt, but unless something dramatic happens in Rickie's golfing career, his golfing success is quite limited, barely worth a mention in the history of the sport.
Winning confused with success ????
You must have received a participant trophy
@@helbitkelbit1790 the only participant trophy I ever got was from your mom. Sadly, I didn’t make the top 25
I think the reason Rickie attracts criticism is that he gets invites for pretty much every tournament, regardless of his performances in recent years. Like that tournament that Rory won recently. It only had 78 entries, was invitational only and had 13 South Koreans. So that's really just 65 places.
So why does Rickie, outside the top 100 in the OWGR (and should really be lower but the OWGR is weighted too heavily in favour of the PGA Tour and doesn't give LIV anything at all. Not to mention that if you keep getting invites it will be quite hard to fall much lower than he already has) get an invitation? What has he done recently? Yes, he might bring his trophy wife for poor dumb Jay Monahan to ogle and cure his erectile dysfunction, but what else? It certainly won't be his golf game.
BTW: people put FAR too much weight on TPC Sawgrass. Some of the most boring people in existence have won that tournament. Davis Love III won it twice, as did Hal Sutton and Fred Couples, but you couldn't pay me enough to have a drink with them or be in their company for more than a few seconds. No matter what the PGA Tour think, it's not the "5th" major; that would be a WGC. Something more global (or at least the WGCs WERE global until the PGA Tour ruined those too). Look at the early fields for Sawgrass, full of players from one country and a bunch of no-names at or near the top of the leaderboard. And it's still nowhere near as international as it should be.
That's why only the US Open and British Opens are true majors, in that you have chances to qualify from all over the world. The Masters and PGA can invite who the hell they want, like Rickie Fowler or even Smylie Kaufman! LOL Will Rickie still get invited to these new "elevated" events (hmm wonder where Jay got that idea from?) for the top 60 players? If he does, then the criticism of LIV will be even more laughably hypocritical than it already is.
Just want to commend MR Fowler for what he's had to overcome just being a part of the PGA. Those that play at this professional level are primarily blessed with exceptional physical attributes, and the gut driven perseverance to withstand the lifestyle. He accomplished his goal just chosing golf over motocross, and developed his presence with exceptional play and results. It doesn't matter if he ever returns, becomes a champion, or top merchant, he is now husband and father, and that is far more important than any station in life and he knows exactly what he's doing. Bravo Ricky, Brava Allison.
Made a great living off a passion. Trophies or not he’s still a winner in life.
They need to Let the man live... hes making more on his marketability and sponsorships than he could golfing anyway and he insipres and introduces alot of kids to golf so he's definatly very important and influential
Funny how he is tied for the lead in the 3M Open as I am typing this..
Its Thursday...
Friday meh…but was -6 thru 12 today then collapsed
how about today bud lol. 18 was fun to watch
And he finished tied for 34th. Amazing!
@@stevennewman5442 true
I never met Ricky but I'm from Southern California not too far from where he grew up where alot of great Moto crossers to trick riders also grew up Temecula and Murrieta Ca. Believe me he is well known since a kid, as I hear of him he's no quitter he will figure it out and get back on the right track...you go RICKI.
love rickie the way he plays the way he treats people i wish more tour players were like him he's won more than enough times for me
I wish Ricky Fowler well. Especially I wish him a happy home life. That's way more important than his golf game.
Quality player and man it's so hard to keep at the top with all the good players out there
Ricky got me into golf, been playing ever since
Me: “No wins in 2 years!? Ridiculous.”
Wife: “You’ve had no wins in 30.”
Good quality documentary, I really enjoy watching these
Go Ricky! We love you and are rooting for you.
Nothing happened to Rickie. He's a mega success. Good for him
He's still got to be losing his mind not playing well. He's been very successful but he definitely doesn't want to be done.
When you have everything it’s hard to put in that work unless you have that crazy inner drive that few have.
dude made millions and married Alison Stokke? I'd say he has easily won the "you win at life" award, before even hitting age 30. Unreal.
Great video! I love Ricky. You can't blame him.. he's not a big guy, so he didn't have the strength advantage of someone like Tiger, DJ, or even Rory. I love how universal and holistic he is. The aim to have a more functional swing that will extend his career is wise, I think.
Strength advantage isn't a huge factor though, Morikawa and Wolff still hit it within 10-15 yards of the biggest hitters at relatively smaller sizes.
@@crimson5158 Wolff is not small by any means. His reputation is as a long hitter and his thighs are massive.
@@ibrodinho he’s about 170lbs at best, and i said relative to prime tiger or DJ.
Less about strength than his height… he is 5’7”. Its tough to keep up with those 6’ plus guys swinging as long as they do… i know there are a few short dudes hit it long… but it takes much more effort and impeccable technique…. Physics is a beach….
Incredibly well put together
He has five pga wins. I was only able to win once in my dreams.
In my dreams in don’t even qualify
Have followed Rickie Fowler for 10 years, he is a fan favorite
Love his swing, swagger and grit! Just keep grinding Rickie and you’ll make money and history! Piss on the Haters!
I think he has made positive impact to many young people, polite and avoiding the bad stuffs. Golf is tough, so many major winners won't make the cut 2 or 3 weeks after winning the titles
Give him a farking break, great player and good character.
Farkman
Keep your hair on
Great player? Dude barely won let alone won a major..dude has great talent but clearly not a great player
@@DTB1995 top 3 in every major, a Players..5 PGA Tour wins 4 international wins and about $40m more in career prize money than you knobhead. Gfys
@@anthonysinclair4114 so zero majors then? with that much talent? lmao
love to watch him play... great guy
Marriage to Allison Stokke happened! And I don't blame him one bit for making her a priority over golf!
I know right, I would be home with her for sure :)
@@lazyoldman9355 Amen to that, brother.
Yeah, I'd take love over Golf and that's probably what's happened to Fowler. Great news is we have so many more young players that can take up that slack.
She's pretty but Fowler could do better if he really wanted to
@@abugsballsack3834 oh wow, you have some very high standards, I would be curious to see what your bringing home with you :)
Always root for Rickie when he’s playing. Don’t forget some of the other big names in golf that took a long time to win their first major. They were always on the leaderboards and won tournaments. How do you measure success?
In golf it’s measured by major championships!
"Always a bridesmaid, never a bride" literally 40 seconds after mentioning he beat Rory in a playoff at the Wells Fargo.
You gotta admit tho. It is damn wild how close he comes to winning these tournaments. Always so close to the dub!
He was talking about the Majors.
Great Video. Everybody loves Rickie I would love to see him make a comeback and win a major. Would be quite a sight to see.
What an amazing career nothing the diminish at all!
Dude literally looks like an anime protagonist. How can you not love this guy?
5 minutes of this is enough
you realize how hard it is to accomplish what he did before even his first win?
Anybody here, in a ny minute would take a pga career like rickys
even if he never won he can make a hell of a living with a handful of top 10s every year
We don't compare touring professional golfers with ourselves though, do we? They aren't our peers or competitors. We compare them with other (touring) pro golfers. And people defending Rickie are missing the point. The reason there can be resentment is he has a load of sponsorship deals that don't reflect his achievements (or lack there of) on the golf course.
5 PGA Tour wins isn't' bad, but DJ has 24 and Rory 23. Those two were, are and will always be more talented and better than Rickie, despite one of them having to relocate to another continent and the other constantly being screwed over by the PGA Tour to the point where he's had enough and joins LIV. Like when they fucked DJ over at the PGA in 2010 by calling a tiny bit of sand a "bunker" lol. That was never a fucking bunker by definition. Rickie has had it far easier than both yet has achieved far less.
I always loved his style 😍
He’s a 5 time PGA tour winner and has top 3 finishes in every major championship. Solid career
Rickie is living his best life. He doesn’t want his career to be the most important aspect of his life. He has a great life outside of golf and I think it’s more of a career than a passion to him at this point in life. There are a lot more meaningful things in life than golf and work. I guarantee you Rickie is happier than all of the tour players that spend 7 days a week on the course and travel every week on tour. He made his money. Has an accomplished career on the biggest stage and will forever be a fan favorite. Chasing around trophy’s your whole life is no way to live. Look at Tiger Woods. He hasn’t smiled or laughed or had fun on the course since 2010. Letting work consume your entire life would be a miserable way to live. Even if your job is to golf. Hitting golf balls 7 days a week does get old. I did it for 15 years just to end up much happier in the pro shop and playing with some friends a few days a week.
He appears contented. Priceless, really.
Good perspective. We often lose sight just how much work goes into golf at that level. Just look at that putting stat, he lost a half a stroke and dropped 50 places in that ranking. I can't even grasp the commitment these guys have.
Ricky is probably glad you made this video. I mean, look how Jordan's year has gone since you did the "What happened to Jordan Spieth?" video 8 months ago (currently 3rd in earnings and 2nd in FexEx Cup). 😏
This popped up on my timeline today.
Currently Rickie is joint leader of the 3M Open.
Hopefully he brings home the W tomorrow👍
What happened to Rickie Fowler? He had a bad year. Only 31. He'll be back
9 wins, including The Players is an insane career for most pros. His branding and hype though set the bar high, with elite expectations of majors.
Maybe, but when you don't live up to the hype, you will forever be an underachiever. There is no doubt that he did not live up to his branding. It made him a ton of money for sure, and gave him a nice life, but he will FOREVER be overrated as a player. The only thing that can change that at this point is Wins and majors and that really doesn't look like it's going to happen any time soon. My guess is that he never wins again. Oh, and he only has 5 PGA wins.
He donated two sets of clubs to some minor league baseball players who’s car got broken into and had both of there sets stolen. Pretty nice guy I would say.
their sets, play golf and baseball and worship Rickie, why because the Media does, follow the Media to be a Tiger lover too.
Eric West bro what 😭 it wasn’t on any media pages it was on the guys Instagram who received the clubs. Stfu before you say dumb shit 😹
Always liked Ricky! I’m 72 and he reminded me of a young Arnold Palmer. I wish him the best and bet he makes a big comeback!
I feel so bad for this 32 yr old multimillionaire who plays a game for a living and has a smoking hot wife . His life has got to be miserable not winning a major .
This is Sheldon here was that Sarcasm :)
32 try 40😂 past his prime
@@jcmoye1 born in 1988 ….. …take a seat
Could not have said it better myself
I just watched him at 3M open a week ago. He brought the crowds even though he was nowhere near contention. He had a larger crowd following him than Finau. Something about Rickie draws a crowd. I hope he gets his play back.
The good news is ,He's in the Fedex cup (125) ---- Rick has problems with his eyes , after Laick is cleared up ,he is playing better.
could u please do a video like this in Henrik Stenson, it would be interesting to see how he won swedens first and only major and then almost took a freefall in the rankings. My guess would be age but u never know.
I personally as a swede that got in to golf after he already started the freefall would be really interested in learning more about The Iceman.
Dude great documentary!... I'm definitely subscribing
I think a lot of these rich pro golfers have made millions of dollars and just don’t have the fire in them to win golf tournaments which is understandable unlike Tiger who never lost his fire to win tournaments and become a living legend….
I'm an Oklahoma State die hard and Rickie Fowler is the reason I even started watching professional golf.
I believe now, he's recently left the PGA tour and joined with the LIV, which is disappointing.
I have always wondered why players as good as Ricky is , why they even need a "swing coach"... Made all this cash , won 10 times including The Players Champ and then switching... Just go play golf and if you win , you win , if you lose you go home to 30 mill and a smoking hot wife... Life is good Rick. Keep it up.
Every top athlete has coaches in every single real sport. Why would golf be any different?
What happened to Rickie Fowler?
He got married and had a child.
Some things are more important than golf.
Rickie has nothing more to prove to anyone. Let the man live his life and continue to inspire.
Man, that all orange outfit is something else. No one else on this planet would even think of wearing that costume on Halloween night.
Hes currently leading the U.S. open.......
This, this is worth my time.
I'm sure he would *like* to win a major, but given his natural ability he probably doesn't have to work that hard to do well, he enjoys the adoration of fans, the big dollars of corporate sponsorship and a mint trophy wife who has completed him as a person. Good on him, he's living the dream!
Always enjoyed watching Ricky. I'm sure he's doing fine and loving life. Enjoy young man👍
Give him a break. There are so many great players out there who haven't won a major. He won the Players, so he's already proven he can win the big events.
I didn't know he had gone anywhere more or less than usual. He is the most sponsored, and relative to that sponsorship, least performing golfer on the PGA tour. He does exceptionally for himself.
Looks to me like he’s winning in life
If you haven't wasted your time watching this video, Rickie Fowler has had a pretty good golfing career.
This video gives the impression that he finished „only runnerup“. Always remember an average runner up finish pays 500k to 1 million on the pga :D I think even if he never swings a club, he will be fine..
@cohen177 no one would argue that rickie is financially secure for life. this is about performance (measured in win’s). rickie was a star jr and amateur player. the golf world saw him coming well before he turned pro. he had as much talent/promise/hype as his elite peers in jordan speith and justin thomas. rickie was supposed to be a 30 career win pro with multiple major championships. for many reasons already mentioned by others, things just didn’t turn out that way. but … such is life. he’s still an exciting player to watch and he’s good for the game.
Very interesting documentary with good insights.
I just want to see Rickie win a major
