Rickie Fowler scored 66-69 on Friday and sits tied for the sixth position at the BMW Championship. He is familiar with Olympia fields, especially after winning Oklahoma State in 2007 at the same site. He is in contention for the title this week. And it looks like a 103-year-old fan is in complete support of him.
