Fowler, Phil Mickelson, and Bubba Watson were a few of the thousands from all corners of the golfing world who came to pay their respects to Palmer at his public service at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Penn., on Tuesday morning.
Palmer, who played on six Ryder Cup teams and captained another, died in hospital last week at age 87.
