A major debut Michael Brennan will never forget. 11 years after dressing up as Rickie Fowler for Halloween, he teed it up with him for a U.S. Open practice round ... and even beat Justin Thomas and Jordan Spieth in a match 😏

"To see someone who looked up to me and now has passed me -- he’s a bit taller than me -- to be playing a U.S. Open is really cool.” @RickieFowler's impact on younger generations is shining through @USOpenGolf.

@RickieFowler @JustinThomas34 @JordanSpieth Rickie is the best dude in golf no question

@RickieFowler @JustinThomas34 @JordanSpieth Ricky Fowler a class act. Good luck to M.Brennan!

@RickieFowler @JustinThomas34 @JordanSpieth At last, a story about golf that doesn't involve Saudi billions or court cases, or mergers. Take note LIV, this is growing the game!!

@RickieFowler @JustinThomas34 @JordanSpieth Shows respect going both ways 👍👍

@RickieFowler @JustinThomas34 @JordanSpieth Y’all see this leaked video?

@RickieFowler @JustinThomas34 @JordanSpieth Very cool. This is why Rickie is the man! Great mentor, great personal impact! You have won already now go out and make it two for two this week Rickie!

@RickieFowler @JustinThomas34 @JordanSpieth Lovely story @No2ofTheBLB

@RickieFowler @JustinThomas34 @JordanSpieth No surprise that a good golf story involves Rickie, JT and Jordan. Three great guys who just get it.

@RickieFowler @JustinThomas34 @JordanSpieth Nothing better than Sport
