Rickie Fowler A Player To Avoid In Mississippi
2 months agoRickie Fowler will be making his first trip to the Country Club of Jackson this week, and while he may be one of the bigger names in the field, fantasy managers should not be enticed by his $7,700 DraftKings salary. The 35-year-old Tour star and current OWGR No. 70 has missed the cut in three of his last six starts, and he hasn't posted a finish inside of the top-10 since his victory at the Rocket Mortgage Classic in July of 2023. The picture doesn't look any better from a statistical perspective, as Fowler ranks outside of the top-60 golfers in good drive percentage, overall approach play, around-the-green play, opportunities gained and birdie-or-better percentage. Fowler certainly has the pedigree to contend on any given week, but fantasy managers relying heavily on recent form and course history won't have much to hang their hats on at the Sanderson Farms Championship this week.
