Rickie Fowler has been playing on the PGA Tour for a good amount of years now. The golfer stands out as one of the most loyal stars in the American League. Not just that, but his opinions are also highly valued on the Tour. And maybe that is why fans have so much respect for the golf star.

In fact, he recently did something at the RBC Heritage Tournament that is winning hearts all over social media.

Rickie Fowler wins hearts with his incomparable gesture

Fowler, 34, has made millions of fans on the PGA Tour, not only for his epic tournament finishes but also for his heartwarming acts on and off the field. The golfer is currently tied for 10th at the RBC Heritage Tournament at Hilton Head Island. Although he’s playing well enough for the fans to appreciate him for his performance, there is something else that has grabbed all their attention on social media.

Famous for his humble approach toward fans, Fowler was featured in a heart-touching video shared by the PGA Tour. And he was accompanied by one of the biggest fans of the game, Kyler Aubrey. The 28-year-old has a special kind of love for golf, especially for Rickie Fowler! Aubrey, who has cerebral palsy and is in a wheelchair, loves to visit tournaments and meet his favorite professionals on the course. As of now, he has already met legends including Phil Mickelson, Rory McIlroy, Tiger Woods, and of course, Rickie Fowler.

However, this was not his first interaction with the golfer. But it was indeed a special one. During his encounter with Kyler last year, Fowler gave him a golf hat as a memory to keep for himself. And to his surprise, the guy showed up wearing the same hat while his caretaker said that they “tried to bring it for good luck…We got to see at least four birdies… ”. Kyler smiled and said, “Looks good!…. He brings everyone birdies,” and gave him a gentle fist bump.
