Another player-caddie relationship is biting the dust.
Rickie Fowler, the last man in the field this week for the FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis, Tennessee, and longtime caddie Joe Skovron have parted ways, according to Golf Channel’s Ryan Lavner.
This comes just days after Will Zalatoris and his caddie, Ryan Goble, broke up.
Fowler’s game has been trending in the wrong direction for years, with his last win coming at the 2019 WM Phoenix Open.
In 21 events this season, Fowler has just one top-20 finish, a T-3 that came all the way back at the CJ Cup in November 2021. In 2022, he’s missed eight cuts in 17 starts.
