Cam Young’s outrageous 375-yard bomb, Viktor Hovland’s unlikely title defence, and a closer look at Innisbrook’s underrated challenge, this week’s Golfpocalypse dives into the Valspar Championship with sharp takes, stats, and a bit of chaos.
Europe would have triumphed at Bethpage with or without “the envelope rule”, having won by a score of 15-13. But that doesn’t make Hovland feel any less bad about the ordeal.
The iron play was strong all week for Hovland, as he finished seventh in greens in regulation and sixth in strokes gained/approach the green with his Ping i210 irons.
Hovland was asked if he regrets making any changes after his historic 2023, and while he did acknowledge second thoughts he also asserted too big a deal has been made of his alterations.
