Finally, Billy Horschel's winning putt on the 14th hole helped the team to win the game 4-3. Following the game, Horschel opened up about his winning putt, saying (via TGL):

“I hit the spot, it looked good. Two feet out I knew it was in the hole and I blacked out. I think I said some expletives. I think I said something about this being my house. It was a lot of fun.”

He also reflected on his team winning the TGL's first season, saying (via TGL):

“It’s really cool to be a part of something with these guys. Team competitions are special. I’ve only been a part of one, the 2022 Presidents Cup. You hear the stories, you know how fun it is ... Just being in something that is competitive, you feel the energy, you feel the nerves. It just brings you closer together. I enjoyed being with these guys and it’s been an absolute blast.”

Meanwhile, on the PGA Tour, Billy Horschel has been impressive with his game so far. He started the season at The Sentry, where he settled in 51st place, but then missed the cut at the Sony Open in Hawaii.

However, he then improved his position on the leaderboard and settled in T9 at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. Horschel was even phenomenal with his game in his last event at the Valspar Championship, where he played four rounds of 69, 71, 69, and 67 and settled in T4 place.

Out of the 10 events he played this season on the PGA Tour, he finished in the top 10 twice.
