Rickie Fowler has not had his A-game for most of his first round at Chambers Bay, as he shot a 43 on the front nine after a stretch of double, bogey, triple, double to close the nine. He hasn't had much better luck on the back nine, but did give us a moment of brilliance with his drive on No. 12, the short par 4.

Fowler perfectly played the bank behind the hole with his drive and nearly had it trickle back in the hole -- honestly I'm not sure how it didn't go in with the line it was on. Fowler tapped in for his eagle, which is his only red score on any hole today.
