On wild Sunday, Fowler finally wins Phoenix Open in front of family

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – Some players called it one of the most bizarre days of their careers. A cold, rainy Sunday in the Arizona desert dampened the final round of the Waste Management Phoenix Open, which was highlighted by more dropped shots in one round than were were downed all week at TPC Scottsdale’s famed par-3 16th hole.

It would’ve been hard to set off fireworks, not that there were many on the final day of the People’s Open.

“I hope I never have to go through that again,” said Rickie Fowler, who stormed out to a four-shot lead after 54 holes.
