Will Viktor Hovland’s Stunning Comeback Shake Up the 2025 U.S. Open Final Round?
In fact, as a Hovland backer, Scott is the golfer I’m most afraid of entering the final round. It feels like Burns and Spaun are lucky, whereas Scott is playing well. He has 21 international wins, including 13 on the PGA TOUR, and is leading the field in Strokes Gained (SG): Off-the-Tee (OTT), the most important stat for U.S. Opens.Â
That said, Hovland is by far the best ball-striker in the mix at the U.S. Open. He leads the field in SG: Approach this week and ranks ninth on TOUR this season. He is having a down year with the driver, but Hovland is a flusher, who is top-20 OTT when he has his A-game. Hovland’s biggest weakness, chipping, is muted because the rough is impossible for everyone at Oakmont.Â
