SAN DIEGO – Don’t be alarmed if Rickie Fowler lacks his usual pop this week at the Farmers Insurance Open.

That’s by design.

“I felt like I was swinging at about 60% and took about three hours to get to the top of my backswing,” Fowler said. “That’d roughly be the feelings of it.”

Fowler is trying to be more deliberate throughout the swing, with a smoother tempo and rhythm.
