Posted by Big G under Latest Golf News, Mens Amateur

Rickie Fowler (pictured below) remains at No 1 in The R&A World Amateur Golf Ranking for a second successive week.  The 18 year old, who is heading to Oklahoma State University next month, has reached No 1 in the WAGRanking without even reaching the minimum divisor of 32, an achievement that is unprecedented. 

Fowler will travel to the US Amateur, at The Olympic Club in San Francisco next week, hoping to continue this year’s form and progress beyond the quarter-final stage he reached last year.
