To earn a Masters time in two weeks, Fowler could finish well enough at the Houston Open to move into the top 50 at Official World Golf Ranking. Currently, he sits at 61st in the OWGR.

The other way he can get to the Masters? Winning this week. The champion of the Houston Open will earn a Masters invitation.
