Is Rickie Fowler on the verge of something spectacular?
There was more than a hint of what may be coming in the 458-yard missile he launched at the 10th hole Saturday at the Aberdeen Standard Investments Scottish Open. He hammered his tee shot so hard there, fans had to scatter to get out of the way as his ball ran through the middle of a crosswalk that marshals didn’t think he could reach.
That titanic blast helped get Fowler “right where we want to be.”
After posting a 2-under-par 68 in difficult winds at Gullane Golf Club, Fowler wasn’t just talking about positioning himself to win the Scottish Open for the second time in four years.
