Meet Rickie Fowler. The gnarliest colour combinations seen on the course since John Daly aside, Robbie Fowler gets our vote for the coolest guy on the PGA Tour at the moment. Check out this photo from earlier in the season - Fowler looks more like a traffic cone than one of the world's best up-and-coming golfers and 2010 PGA Tour Rookie of the Year:
What's even more extreme about this guy is his background. Fowler grew up idolizing his dirt bike riding father, and was busy following in his father's footsteps until a serious wreck in high school almost derailed his blossoming golfing career.
Fowler's golfing game is almost entirely self-taught, and if the last few years are anything to go by, apparently he was on to something back at the driving range as a 14 year old.
Fowler is competing in The Masters this weekend; follow his progress here and check out his official web site here.
