Rickie Fowler returned from the golfing wilderness to record his first victory in more than four years after winning a three-man play-off at the Rocket Mortgage Classic in Detroit.

The 34-year-old's last victory was 1,610 days ago at the WM Phoenix Open in February 2019 but in the intervening time he had slumped to 185th in the world rankings as recently as last September.
