Viktor Hovland won the BMW Championship with an impressive and record-breaking fourth round of 9 under 71. With this result, he added a very nice sum of $3,600,000 to his $10.5 million earnings for the season.
The Norwegian produced a tremendous performance at the BMW Championship. He was able to go from strength to strength, achieving performances of 69>68>65>61 to finish with a score of 17-under 263.
The highlight for Hovland at the BMW Championship was the fourth round, in which he broke the record for 18 holes at Olympia Fields Golf Course (set by Max Homa just two days ago).
On the closing day of the BMW Championship Hovland was phenomenal, especially on the back nine. He completed the last nine holes with seven birdies, zero bogeys and only 28 strokes.
Viktor Hovland achieved not only one of the most important results of his sporting career but also equalled his most lucrative result. The BMW Championship earned him exactly the same amount as his career-high prize money at winning the Travelers Championship.
Viktor Hovland also added 2000 points to his FedEx Cup ranking and is now in seventh place. The list continues to be headed by Jon Rahm, with Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy following in the same order.
Scheffler and Matt Fitzpatrick finished in second place and also earned seven-figure prizes. Close behind was Rory McIlroy, who took home $990,000 for fourth place.
