OSU alum and #4 golfer in the world Viktor Hovland joins the premiere of The Scott Verplank Show

Scott Verplank kicked off his new show on Sellout Crowd by bringing in one of the top golfers in the world.
Verplank visited with Viktor Hovland, the No. 4-ranked golfer in the world and winner of three events last season. What did Hovland, a former standout at Oklahoma State, think of his epic season?
“I feel like 2023 was a big year of development. I figured out some stuff that I hadn't figured out before,” Hovland told Verplank.
The pair talked about the best aspects of Hovland’s game, how he got his start in golf (including how Tiger Woods inspired a young Hovland back in Norway) and how he’s adjusting to his new home in South Florida.
Verplank will be talking to top pro golfers from the past and present on his Sellout Crowd show, sponsored by EMAQ (emaqgroup.com/)
