Viktor Hovland Wins Low Amateur at Masters, Sits in Butler Cabin With Tiger Woods

Viktor Hovland will go from sitting in Butler Cabin with Tiger Woods to returning to his academic duties in the span of 24 hours.

Hovland was the low-scoring amateur of the 2019 Masters, holding off Alvaro Ortiz to earn the honor by a stroke. Hovland finished the tournament with a 3-under 285, finishing a stoke under par each of the final three days. Hovland started before Ortiz on Sunday and both started on the back nine. Hovland bogeyed his final hole, leaving an opening for Ortiz to tie with a par, but Ortiz also bogeyed the hole.

“Can’t be much happier than I am right now,” Hovland said in Butler Cabin with Woods sitting to his left.
