Victor Hovland Could Win The Memorial This Weekend
4 years agoVictor Hovland is one of those "favorites" at 18 to 1 to win The Memorial this weekend. He is one of the few golfers out there that can drive the ball long and just straight enough on this demanding course (53rd and 69th). His 68.5% greens in regulation (27th) will help ease his putting fears. From tee to green, Hovland ranks 9th on the tour at 1.385 strokes gained. His scoring average tops the tour at 69.83. The question is can he score well at a prestigious tournament. Thirds at Wells Fargo and Valspar indicate he is close.
