One of the most exciting young players on the PGA Tour right now is Rickie Fowler. He exploded onto the golf scene last year with a coming out party at last year’s Ryder Cup. His good looks, fancy wardrobe and flair for clutch putting have made him a fan favorite of the young golfing crowd.
Rickie’s swing is as unique as his style. A self proclaimed “no instructor” player; his swing is long, smooth and powerful. The key move in this dynamic swing is the great transition from backswing to downswing. What makes this possible? A world class pelvic move amateurs can only dream of.
Now if he could just win … like Keegan Bradley. He has a personal flair and is very marketable, but I don’t think another free pass to the Ryder Cup is in order. Although he showed well at the Ryder Cup it’s best that the first one is actually earned.
