Rickie Fowler cards ace on Sunday at TPC Scottsdale


    Written by Staff @PGATOUR

    Rickie Fowler’s quest for his first win since the 2019 WM Phoenix Open was aided by an ace Sunday.

    It didn’t come on the famed 16th hole, known as the rowdiest in in golf, but it was still well-timed.

    Fowler used a 6-iron to ace TPC Scottsdale’s 216-yard seventh hole. The eagle pulled Fowler within four shots of 54-hole leader Scottie Scheffler.

    It was Fowler’s third hole-in-one on TOUR and first since the 2015 Quicken Loans National. It also was the fifth on No. 7 at TPC Scottsdale, which has hosted the WM Phoenix Open since 1987.

    While Fowler’s winless drought has reached four years, he is experiencing a resurgent season since returning to swing coach Butch Harmon in 2022. Fowler entered the week ranked 23rd in the FedExCup thanks to a runner-up finish at the ZOZO Championship. He finished 11th in his most recent start, at the Farmers Insurance Open.

    Fowler also has a strong history at TPC Scottsdale, where he won in 2019 and has two runners-up.
