Tacoma (United States) (AFP) - Rickie Fowler says after contending in all four majors last year and then winning The Players Championship in May, he is finally ready to claim his first Grand Slam title at the 115th US Open.

In 2014, the 26-year-old American finished in the top five in all four major championships in a calendar year, something only Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus can claim.
