'Spectator' Fowler waits, watches, comes up one short

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. – After Rickie Fowler signed his scorecard on Sunday at the Honda Classic, he “became a spectator," waiting to see if there was more golf to be played.

Playing in the third-to-last pairing, Fowler posted 8 under par for the week. Rather than head to the practice area to prepare for a potential playoff, Fowler simply watched and waited.

In this case, he watched Keith Mitchell birdie the 18th hole to win his first PGA Tour and edge Fowler and Brooks Koepka by one.

“I’ve signed my card, I’ve done everything I can do," Fowler said.
