FLOURTOWN, Pa. — Rickie Fowler heard about the complaints — mostly from puzzled fans — after he received an invitation to play next weekend in the PGA Championship.
His retort? Keep the whining coming.
“The negative stuff, I would say, kind of helps me in a way because it fuels me to kind of go out and prove people wrong,” Fowler said.
Fowler answered his critics at the Truist Championship with the kind of play that showed he can still be considered a threat to win, even if he actually hasn’t taken a tournament since 2023 .
