Viktor Hovland carded a final-round, 6-under 65 – including three birdies in his final six holes – to outlast a crowded leaderboard at 20-under total.

The 23-year-old Norwegian becomes just the fifth European player (since 1945) to earn multiple TOUR titles before turning 24. It’s an esteemed list that includes Rory McIlroy, Seve Ballesteros, Sergio Garcia and Jon Rahm.

Hovland earned his first TOUR title at the Puerto Rico Open this past February, where he drained a 25-footer for birdie on the 72nd hole to finish one ahead of Josh Teater. Once again, his even-keeled life perspective paid dividends down the stretch at El Camaleón. He got up-and-down from a greenside bunker on the 515-yard, par-4 16th to stay tied with Wise, then became the first player to win the World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba with a 72nd-hole birdie in the event’s 14-year history.

Two years ago, Hovland made his TOUR debut at the World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba. He was an Oklahoma State junior, competing on a sponsor’s invite. He missed the cut by a stroke.

Last year, he again missed the cut by one.

Third time proved the charm.
