@MirjamSwanson Awesome to see… he will be oozing with confidence and determination heading into The Open and wouldn’t be surprised to see him get the other monkey off his back.
My cover story interview on Rickie Fowler in May 2008 Junior Golf issue of Southland Golf. A month later, he played in the US Open at Torrey and was in the top 10 after the first round. He turned pro soon thereafter. 15 years later, I truly hope he can get the monkey off his back
A special shoutout to Chris Fatilua, a member of our 2018 recruiting class, who suffered a severe spinal injury in a swimming accident just weeks before he was to arrive at Cal. Chris was told by the doctor who performed surgery to fix his fractured spine that she had never had a patient walk again after the procedure, but Chris told her "I'm going to be your first."
Not only did he walk again, but last Saturday he graduated from Cal. Congrats, Chris! Your story is one of tremendous determination and perseverance.

Holy shit. Fox News just acknowledged on air: “Regulations regarding train safety were changed under Trump. This particular railroad & others lobbied Trump to dismantle an Obama-era rule that would have required railroads to update their braking systems.”
