Rickie Fowler Returns To Competition At Truist Championship, Confirmed For PGA Championship

July 24, 2025: Fan-favorite golfer Rickie Fowler is making a return to the spotlight this Thursday, July 24, 2025, as he is set to compete at the Truist Championship. This appearance follows a period away from competitive golf, which included his withdrawal from the WM Phoenix Open in February before the second round due to illness, and a failure to qualify for the Masters Tournament in April.

Fowler is looking to regain his form and work his way back to being one of the sport’s top players. In 2024, he recorded only one top-10 finish, a stark contrast to his eight top-10 finishes during the 2022-23 season. Despite still seeking his first major title, Fowler boasts 10 professional wins and has a history of strong performances in major tournaments.

Adding to the excitement for his fans, Fowler was officially announced on Tuesday as a participant in the PGA Championship, one of the biggest events of the year. The 2025 PGA Championship is scheduled to take place from May 15 to May 18 at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina. This is a particularly notable inclusion, as the Truist Championship itself (formerly the Wells Fargo Championship) is being held at the Philadelphia Cricket Club (Wissahickon Course) in 2025, moving from its usual Quail Hollow venue due to the PGA Championship taking place there just one week later.

Fans have reacted with joy to the news of Fowler’s participation:

• “Whether or not he’s towards the top of the leaderboard or not, tournaments are more fun when Rickie’s in the field,” one fan commented.
• Another fan acknowledged, “I enjoy watching Fowler play but major entrants should have to earn their way in with their play- not their name.”
• “YESSIR!! Love to see him get his first major,” a hopeful fan added.
• “Awesome,” was another concise reaction.
