Rickie Fowler the latest to join ZOZO field !

Rickie Fowler, whose middle name Yutaka comes from his maternal grandfather who is Japanese, is one of the most
popular players on TOUR, thanks to five career victories which includes the 2015 PLAYERS Championship. He
featured in the 2020 and 2021 editions of the ZOZO CHAMPIONSHIP and will arrive in Japan this October with every
intention of ending a three-year winless run following his last success at the 2019 Waste Management Phoenix
Open.

Fowler, 33, said: “It’s fantastic we can play in front of PGA TOUR fans in all parts of the world, and to be able to
compete in a country like Japan that has so much personal meaning to me and my family is an opportunity too big to
pass up. I played in the ZOZO CHAMPIONSHIP in Japan for the first time last year and the amazing support that the
players received from Japanese fans was something I will never forget. With my family roots, it’ll be amazing if I can
pull off a win at the ZOZO CHAMPIONSHIP.”
