This year’s Ryder Cup is 1985 revisited, with the formula for success unchanged. If Europe is to win this Ryder Cup, the leading players are almost certainly going to have to step up. History says it is so.
The key thing Hovland has worked on is focusing on hitting really steeply down on the ball. He does this by shifting his body towards the target during his move.
Rory McIlroy. Jon Rahm. Victor Hovland. The three best players on the European Ryder Cup side all had plenty to say about the most unlikely member of the team, Ludvig Aberg.
Viktor Hovland’s first season-long title deserves a more thorough celebration, so the team will rendezvous this Friday night in Edmond, Oklahoma, an hour from the former Oklahoma State star’s residence at Stillwater.
The 2023 FedEx Cup champion is perhaps the game’s fastest ascending star. Not only did Viktor Hovland bag the $18-million bonus for his Tour Championship and FedEx Cup victories on Sunday, he earned more than $33 million in on-course earnings on the season.
Viktor Hovland, who has come up short in several big events this year, including runner-up two weeks ago in the PGA Championship, finally cashed in on Sunday at the Memorial Tournament by defeating Denny McCarthy with a par on the first hole of a sudden-death playoff.
As the latest designated event on the PGA Tour’s 2023 schedule, Muirfield Village offers up a $US20 million purse with the winner getting that oversize first-place payday.
Quite often a player who comes close to winning a Major championship tends to give himself another chance almost right away if he keeps his form intact and carries the right attitude.
He made the hard course look easy for much of the day, in conditions that shouldn’t have allowed for such a thing thanks to an array of shots as beautiful as they were bold as they were ridiculous, a reminder that the man when he’s at his best is capable of stick-and-ball genius.
