Hovland is No. 8 in the world golf rankings, and has proven he can handle the tougher U.S. Open setup and conditions.
The 24-year-old from Norway has elite Ball Striking and Approach play stats ranking top-5 over his last 50 rounds. His scrambling stats are solid enough and his Putting is better. The concern is his sub-par play and stats Around the Green and Short Game. He's also top-20 in Good Drives Gained, which is imperative at The Country Club course for the U.S. Open.
Still, after three straight top-10 finishes earlier this year, Hovland has failed to crack the top 20 in five straight tournaments.
