Fowler famously had top-five finishes in all four Majors in 2014.
AUGUSTA: Rickie Fowler, eight times a top-five Major finisher without winning, says he has never been so prepared for a breakthrough triumph as he is at this week’s Masters.
Ninth-ranked Fowler, now in his 10th PGA campaign, famously had top-five finishes in all four Majors in 2014 – a full-year feat only Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods and Jordan Spieth have matched. Fowler made birdies on six of the last 11 holes to challenge Reed after starting the day five strokes adrift, a closing birdie pulling him within a shot. But Reed sank a five-foot par putt at 17 and a four-footer at 18 for a one-stroke triumph.
Don’t mistake confidence for the cockiness of a more youthful Fowler, who challenged Augusta customs by wearing a cap backwards in speaking with reporters.
