AUGUSTA, Ga. — Viktor Hovland's journey to Augusta National started at Pebble Beach last August when the Oklahoma State star dominated on his way to a U.S. Amateur victory.
It ended Sunday, with the 21-year-old sitting alongside Tiger Woods and being interviewed by Jim Nantz in Butler Cabin. Hovland won the Silver Cup as the low amateur at the 83rd Masters, which will go down in history as one of the best ever played.
He had an impressive performance, shooting 72-71-71-71 to finish at 3-under par, edging Mexico's Alvaro Ortiz by a stroke for the honor.
He had OSU coach Alan Bratton on his bag this week.
