Fowler is currently competing at East Lake Golf Club in the $75 million worth Tour Championship. The PGA Tour pro has made his way to the end of the season with sheer efforts and a display of stellar golf skills. It was a tough one for the golfer coming close to victory so many times, but not having one other than the Rocket Mortgage Classic win. But he persevered through!

One addition to Fowler’s team that attracted a lot of attention this year has been his gigantic water bottle, which is filled with stickers from top to bottom. The PGA Tour recently posted a video on its Twitter (now X) page where they had the man himself explain the story behind his water bottle.

The 6X PGA Tour winner said that he would not “make up anything crazy” for this bottle. He said that the reason he has such a big bottle with him is because his electrolytes are very potent, so he likes to mix 28-30 ounces of water. He said while explaining the reason for his “carriable bottle.” Fowler likes to carry his bottle in his hand because it reminds him to drink water every now and then.
