The Norwegian decided with a birdie on the last hole.
– I was shaking at the end there, and I didn’t feel comfortable at all, Hovland revealed in an interview shown on Eurosport right after the win.
With the victory, he also wins just over 11 million in prizes. It also sent him to third place on the PGA Tour overall list.
– is not true
“Not true, that boy,” exclaimed former professional player Henrik Bjørnstad in the Eurosport commentary booth after Hovland delivered the decisive blow on the last hole.
– Now the tears flow in the cabin here, Per Haugsrud continued.
– He has no nerves
Earlier this year, Hovland won the tournament in Puerto Rico, this time it was the best in Mexico, in what became a thriller.
The 23-year-old has played very well all weekend, and was in third place two strokes behind the leader before the final day.
Then Hovland played a great game and took the lead. But from behind came Aaron Wise.
The American came in sixth after three rounds, registering all three shots behind Hovland.
On the last hole he was able to birdie a putt, thus pressuring Hovland to do the same for a rematch, but failed.
Thus, Hovland went to the last hole, knowing that the pair would replay, and the birdie would give the victory. The same scenario as when he won in Puerto Rico in February, and again delivered the Norwegian.
– He’s not nervous, Bjørnstad pointed out.
Kristoffer Ventura didn’t make it through half of his father’s home country. He was three strokes away from playing.
