Fowler posted a 14-under cumulative score at the John Deere Classic to finish tied for 15th.
Analysis:
Fowler opened the tournament with scores of 70-69, which was just enough for him to make the three-under cut line. He followed that up with an eight-under 63 on Saturday -- the best score of the third round -- and led the field that day in feet of putts made. He finished the tournament 10th in bogeys, 15th in SG: Off-the-Tee, GIR and scrambling and 21st in SG: Around. It was an encouraging performance from Fowler, who finished T60 or worse in four of the five tournaments prior to the John Deere Classic, including T60 at the PGA Championship and an MC at the U.S. Open. He's not in the field for the Genesis Scottish Open, nor the ISCO Championship, so his next outing will be in two weeks at The Open. He finished T14 in last year's Open Championship and T22 in 2017, the last time that golf's oldest major was hosted at Royal Birkdale.
