Robbie Fowler narrowly misses £8m prize at Bangkok tournament

Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler came within inches of winning a $10 million prize for a hole-in-one at the Reignwood Icons of Football tournament in Bangkok. Competing for Team England, Fowler's impressive tee shot on the 170-yard 12th hole thrilled teammates including Paul Ince, Carlos Tevez, and Gabriel Batistuta, but ultimately missed the cup. The substantial prize was intended to be shared among players, spectators, and charities. Fowler humorously noted he felt pressure while taking the shot, observing that Ince was already imagining spending the money. Team England, led by former world No. 1 Lee Westwood, holds a significant lead going into the final day of the match-play event. Westwood praised fellow teammate Jimmy Bullard, suggesting he has the potential to turn professional due to his impressive skills on the course.
