Olympics: Rickie To Make Pre-Tournament Statement At Troon

While whapping it around the Old Course Saturday defending his Scottish Open title, American Olympic hopeful Rickie Fowler was followed for a few holes by IGF President Peter Dawson.

The former R&A chief apparently made his last minute case for Fowler to show up in Rio, Alex Miceli reports for Golfweek.com.

After his round, Fowler confirmed that he talked with Dawson about the Olympics but did not commit to the games. He intends to make a pre-tournament statement in the coming days at Royal Troon.

The world awaits...
