Rickie Fowler Makes Personal Announcement Days Before The Open
Rickie Fowler Makes Personal Announcement Days Before The Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Rickie Fowler is one of the most fashion-forward figures in the game of golf, and has been ever since his shaggy hair and bright orange outfits burst onto the professional golf scene in 2009. Advertisement This is thanks in part to his longstanding partnership with PUMA, which Fowler, 36, has been rocking ever since his first year on tour. The legendary brand has made everything from Fowler's iconic flat-brimmed "P" hats and stylish monochromatic outfits, to his trend setting TitanTour Ignite Hi-Top SE golf shoes and flashy floral print polos. Needless to say, the six-time PGA Tour winner and PUMA have been known to make a fashion statement, and the duo have partnered with premium athletic wear brand, Reigning Champ, to create an evocative new collection that blurs athletic boundaries. Inspired by the universal language of sport and drawing on PUMA's soccer heritage, The PUMA x Reigning Champ Field to Fairway collection bridges the worlds of soccer and golf to re-imagine the golfer's kit. Advertisement 'As an athlete and lifelong sports fan, I love how the Field to Fairway collection celebrates sport at an international level. Both sports continue to grow on the world stage, we're in a Ryder Cup year and the World Cup is just around the corner, so this feels like the perfect time to collab,' Fowler said in a press release. 'It's a sharp collection and I look forward to wearing it in competition.' Founded in 2007, Reigning Champ is a leading designer of premium athletic apparel inspired by the culture of sport. Their classic and timeless designs are made with the highest quality materials to ensure a stylish and long lasting fit whether you're on the course, at the gym, or hanging with friends after the round. Reigning Champ's partnership was a natural fit for PUMA GOLF, who has always been on the forefront of modern golf attire. The PUMA x Reigning Champ Field to Fairway collection is more than apparel, however, according to Chris MacNeill, Global Director of Apparel and Accessories at PUMA GOLF. "It's a cultural crossover that resonates with today's global sports fan.' The collection can be found at PUMA Golf and Reigning Champ starting today. Advertisement Rickie Fowler tees it up at the first round of The Open Championship at Royal Portrush on Thursday, where he is paired with Adam Scott and amateur Ethan Fang. Fowler, who opted not to play The Scottish Open at The Renaissance Club last week, will head to Royal Portrush with positive momentum, coming off a strong showing at the John Deere Classic earlier this month where he finished T18. Rickie Fowler has made 13 Open appearances and his best finish at The Open Championship came back in 2014 where he finished tied for 2nd at Royal Liverpool with Sergio Garcia, two strokes behind winner, Rory McIlroy. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jul 15, 2025, where it first appeared.

Who's in, who has work to do to make the top 70 for 2025 FedEx Cup Playoffs?
The race is on to the 2025 FedEx Cup Playoffs. There are just four events left (two this week) over the next three weeks for players to stay or get inside the top 70. That's the new rule in 2025, only the top 70 players earn playoff spots. The three FedEx Cup Playoff events are the same: the FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis, the BMW Championship, played this year at Caves Valley Golf Club in Owings Mills, Maryland, and then the Tour Championship at East Lake in Atlanta, where a new format will be used this season. FedEx Cup stadings Nos. 1-5 Just a slight change at the top of the standings with Thomas and Henley flipping spots. FedEx Cup standings Nos. 26-30 Top 30 is actually the key place to be as only the top 30 advance to the Tour Championship. The last five in for the top 30 looks like this: FedEx Cup standings Nos. 46-50 To make the second leg of the playoffs at the BMW, golfers need to be inside the top 50. FedEx Cup standings Nos. 61-70 But you can't make East Lake or the BMW if you don't first make it to Memphis for the St. Jude. Here's the last five in for a top-70 spot: So that makes Smalley this week's bubble boy. He was No. 70 in the official rankings a week ago as well. FedEx Cup standings Nos. 71-75 And here's the first five out, with Rickie Fowler, playing in the Open Championship this week, the first one on the wrong side of the line. He was 68 a week ago. It's not an unfamiliar position for Fowler, who was hovering around the top 100 cutoff mark a year ago. He's 30 or so spots better this year but because of the reduction to 70, he's walking a fine line once again. Movers up and down in the latest FedEx Cup Playoffs standings Like Fowler, Chris Kirk has slid from inside the top 70 to out. Kirk was 69th a week ago and now he's 72nd. With someone sliding out, someone else slides in and that someone this week is Matt Fitzpatrick, who went from 73rd to 60th in the standings after a tie for fourth at the Genesis Scottish Open on Sunday.

Edmonton tourism riding wave of Oilers playoffs run, Canadians avoiding the U.S.
Article content Fowler said the city making it onto the Lonely Planet's Best in Travel List was a significant triumph for the city after some tough criticism in years past. Article content 'It was a huge deal for us, especially just how far we've come in the eyes of Lonely Planet. If you look at 2015 reviews of us, they're not as nice. They are very honest. So just seeing the development of our indigenous tourism experience, our culinary (tourism), the Ice District, that really helped us get there,' said Fowler. Article content The result, according to Fowler is momentum in the city's tourism that the group continues to try and maintain in a variety of ways, including billboard campaigns in American cities with direct flights to Edmonton. Article content Measuring momentum in outsiders' interest in a city isn't easy, but one indicator that Explore Edmonton tracks is flight searches. This year, Edmonton saw a more than 76 per cent increase in searches for flights to the city from all markets throughout June compared to last year. The interest in Edmonton is even higher among Canadian travellers, which showed a more than 117 per cent jump in searches compared to last year, which could be partially attributed to the ongoing trade war with the United States. Article content Article content 'I know some people that won't go now to the States. Now that being said, we are still seeing Americans coming here,' said Kanash, adding 'maybe not as much.' Article content Explore Edmonton's data indicates a nearly 20 per cent drop in bookings to Edmonton from American cities, but has notably seen a more than 10 per cent increase in bookings compared to last year for travellers coming from other parts of the country, and a 1.4 per cent increase from all markets. Article content Regardless of what's bringing people to the city, Fowler said Explore Edmonton just wants to keep visitors coming. Article content 'We're just really excited about the momentum behind our city right now, and excited for the rest of the world to experience it.' Article content

Browns OG Joel Bitonio falls just shy of ESPN's top 10 interior linemen
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler is unveiling the results of his annual survey ranking the top 10 players at each position in the eyes of NFL personnel. After defensive end Myles Garrett was ranked as the top pass-rusher in the NFL earlier this week, another Cleveland Browns stalwart has drawn praise from participants. While Browns guard Joel Bitonio didn't quite make Fowler's list of the top 10 interior offensive linemen in the NFL, he was one of five players to earn an honorable mention. 2025 marks the first time since Fowler began his survey in 2020 that Bitonio has not ranked within the top 10, but league personnel believe he is still playing at a high level. Here is what one AFC executive had to say about Bitonio: "Definitely slight decline as he ages, but still a really good player who grades out well. Still a very consistent player compared to the rest of the field, which is something I really value at an error prevention position." Bitonio is coming off a 2024 season that saw him earn his seventh straight Pro Bowl selection, and is heading into his 12th season overall with the Browns. Last month, he opened up about why he decided to return for the 2025 season after seriously contemplating retirement this offseason. While plenty of changes have come to Cleveland this offseason, Bitonio's play is one thing the Browns can count on staying consistent.
