Undoubtedly, Rickie Fowler’s 2024 season has been unexpectedly disappointing. From the very start, the 6-time PGA Tour winner missed out on winning circles and unfortunately, did not finish in the top 10 in any of 22 events he had played so far. However, regardless of how poor his form is, the 35-year-old is eligible to play all the events whether the regular or the fall season.

How does he qualify for every event? Last year, Fowler won the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic, this was his first win in almost three years. Courtesy of this victory in Detroit Golf Club, Fowler is eligible for the PGA Tour till 2025. But in the 2024 season, because of his ordinary form, for the first time in a while, Fowler’s rank on the FedExCup Standings has him ranked at 108th (at the time of publication).

And for the golfers to be eligible for the ZOZO Championship, they need to be in the top 60, so is he? Although the 6-time PGA Tour winner is out of the top 60 in the regular FedExCup Standings, in the fall ones, he is under it. That’s why along with 2-time major winner Xander Schauffele and defendant champion Collin Morikawa, Fowler will tee up at the Accordia Golf Narashino Country Club on October 24th.

In the last two starts of Fowler, the 35-year-old finished T16 at the Sanderson Farms Championship and T23 at the Shriners Children’s Open, respectively. Coming to Japan, Fowler would hope to recover from his fallen form and mark his first-ever top-10 finish in the 2024 season. Although he has not played that well, Fowler revealed that he has achieved his childhood dream and also shed light on his next goal.

Rickie Fowler shares his goal for the 2025 season

Since his debut on the PGA Tour in 2010, Rickie Fowler has amassed six victories. Through thick and thin, he has stayed in form. But despite all the victories, the 35-year-old does not have any majors in his portfolio. And that’s on his 2025 agenda.

During the Sanderson Farms Championship, the 6-time PGA Tour winner expressed that although his form is comparatively poor than his first years, he wants to have a few majors in his career. He added that it was his childhood dream to win on the PGA Tour and he has done that.

Now, he wants either of the four majors. Fowler said, “You know, be nice to be able to have a major, if not multiple, on the resume by the time I’m done with this.” Once, the 35-year-old gets back to his form and starts finishing on top of the leaderboard, his dream of winning a major may come true in 2025 as well.
