• Power sits at B+ for Fowler, a shade above the pool average across the 2025–26 pool: 36 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. How far the ball goes off the tee — long hitters shorten every hole.
• At A-, Fowler's accuracy rating is a clear strength (89th percentile of the 2025–26 pool) — only 10 players in the pool rate higher. How often the ball finds the fairway and stays out of trouble.
• At B+, Fowler's iron play rating is on the stronger side of average (61st percentile of the 2025–26 pool) — 37 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. Precision from the fairway into the green — the single biggest driver of low scores.
• Short Game sits at B+ for Fowler, on the stronger side of average across the 2025–26 pool: 35 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. Scrambling around the green — chips, pitches, and bunker shots that save par.
• Putting sits at A- for Fowler, comfortably above tour-average across the 2025–26 pool: 17 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. Holing putts, especially the ones inside ten feet that turn pars into birdies.
• Course IQ A- — a clear strength in the 2025–26 pool; only 11 players in the pool rate higher. Course management and shot selection — playing the smart shot, not just the bold one.
• At A-, Fowler's nerve rating is comfortably above tour-average (83rd percentile of the 2025–26 pool) — 16 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. Composure in contention — how a golfer performs with the tournament on the line.
• Consistency A- — well above the pool average in the 2025–26 pool; 18 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. How tightly a golfer's scores cluster around their average, round after round.
• Engine B+ — a shade above the pool average in the 2025–26 pool; 46 of the other 95 players in the pool rate higher. Stamina and durability across a long season — fewer withdrawals, less late-year fade.
