What a win for Rickie Fowler, but as he said on Sunday, there’s more to life than winning a golf tournament.
The golfer delivered his first victory in 1,610 days — yup, it’s been over three years since his last win — when he won a playoff in the 2023 Rocket Mortgage Classic on Sunday. His wife, Allison Stokke and daughter Maya were there to witness it, and the whole thing was fantastic.
CBS cameras caught his post-win kiss with his wife, and then during his interview while holding Maya, he had this to say: “At the end of the day, getting to hold her and hang with Maya and my wife … yeah, winning’s great but there’s a lot more to life than that.”
