Fowler Seeks Comeback at 2026 Truist Championship

Rickie Fowler is hoping to find his comeback moment at this week’s 2026 Truist Championship.

The 2026 Truist Championship continues on Friday, May 8, with the second round at Quail Hollow in North Carolina.

Fowler’s Recent Form and Tee Time

Slowly but surely, Rickie Fowler is working his way back into the elite echelons of the PGA Tour.

Though he didn’t qualify for the Masters, Fowler has collected top-10 finishes in his last two starts at the RBC Heritage and Cadillac Championship, both Signature Events.

He’s moved into the all-important 30th position in the FedEx Cup standings, the cutoff for access to the season-ending Tour Championship. His major absence will end next week when he tees it up in the 2026 PGA Championship at Aronimink.

But first, Fowler is trying to secure his comeback moment with a victory at this week’s Truist Championship, another Signature Event.

After starting on the back nine for the opening round, Fowler will switch to a 1st-tee start in Friday’s second round.

Fowler will tee off for Round 2 at 12:50 p.m. ET alongside Alex Fitzpatrick and Viktor Hovland.
