“One of the end goals was to be a part of the Ryder Cup team and that's still what we're focusing on right now," he added. "I’ve Been a part of a handful and they're very special weeks, so that's where I have kind of my eyes.”

Rickie Fowler's 2023 PGA Tour result

Rickie Fowler has been on a roll since the start of the year. He had only missed the PGA Championship cut.

Due to his poor form, Fowler was unable to participate in the United States' dominating victory at Whistling Straight in 2021. However, he is optimistic about representing the American team in the Ryder Cup given his performance since the beginning of 2023.

The Ryder Cup 2023 will be held in Rome in September, and he has a few tournaments to participate in before the team event.

Rickie Fowler began the new year at The American Express and finished T54. He finished 11th at the 2023 Farmers Insurance Open, earning $210,975 in prize money.

He did, however, suffer with his performance at major events. Fowler failed to qualify for the Masters, which was contested in April and didn't compete in the PGA Championship, the year's second major.

In June, Fowler competed in the US Open, where he registered a tournament record for the lowest score and finished fifth. He subsequently competed in the Travelers Championship, finishing third, before winning the Rocket Mortgage Classic on July 2.
