Viktor Hovland’s great pursuits: A perfect golf swing and the truth about UFOs
Viktor Hovland’s golf swing clicked at the right time. His search for the truth about UFOs? That’s still a work in progress. Practicing on the driving range before Wednesday’s Ryder Cup opening ceremony, the 28-year-old Norwegian said he suddenly felt freed up. When he reviewed his swing on video, “it looked definitely better than other swings that I’ve made lately.” That bodes well for Europe, which enters tournament play on Friday as underdogs on the U.S. team’s turf. As for UFOs — a subject Hovland says he’s gotten deeper into in the last couple of years, piquing the curiosity of teammates and fans alike — the seven-time PGA Tour winner said it’s one way he takes his mind off golf. And, he insists, the truth is out there.
