Okay, so, let’s talk about this whole Viktor Hovland thing. I’ve been following this guy for a while now, ever since he and Collin Morikawa popped onto the PGA Tour scene back in the 2019-2020 season. They were both super promising amateurs, but man, nobody saw this level of success coming, right?
So, I started digging into it, and first thing I do is, I started to search who is Viktor’s coach right now. Guess what? This guy has changed his coach twice! He started with this Joe Mayo, split with him, and now it looks like he’s working with TJ Yeaton. I was like, what? Why? I think these changes may explain why he is so unstable right now.
And you know what else I found? Apparently, Viktor broke his freaking pinky toe! Not on the course, mind you. He did it in his own bedroom, slamming it into the bed frame in the middle of the night. I almost choked on my coffee when I read that. I mean, who does that? He was even hobbling over to a microphone during an interview. Ouch!
What happened next?
- Checked: Then I started to wonder if this injury is going to mess with his game. I mean, he was supposed to be at The Sentry, kicking off the 2025 PGA Tour season. Big deal, right?
- Read: There were rumors all over the place that he might even jump ship to LIV Golf. Now that’s a juicy bit of gossip.
- Realized: After all, he did split with his long-time coach, Joe Mayo, for the second time recently. Looks like some major shake-ups are happening in the Hovland camp.
So I’m sitting here, piecing all this together. This guy is super talented, no doubt. But between the coaching changes and now this crazy toe injury, it feels like things are a bit shaky for him. I mean, he had such a good year, winning a ton. But now? It’s like, what’s going to happen next?
I’m definitely going to keep an eye on this. It’s like watching a movie, you know? You’re rooting for the guy, but you have no idea what twist is coming next. Will he recover? Will he switch coaches again? Will he stay on the PGA Tour?
Only time will tell, I guess. But, I’m definitely hooked. This Viktor Hovland story is far from over, and I’m here for all of it.
