Norwegian golfer Viktor Hovland is one of the most promising talents in the professional golf circuit. After his win at the recent BMW Championship, many fans have expressed curiosity about certain aspects of his personal life, including his marriage.

Some media outlets have claimed Kristin Sorsdal, a fellow Norwegian, is the 25-year-old golfer's girlfriend. However, there is no certainty about that as Hovland hasn't posted a single picture with her on his social media or talked about her in any of his interviews.

Therefore, many believe that Hovland is currently single. In fact, during the 2021 Ryder Cup, Viktor Hovland and Matt Fitzpatrick were the only two golfers in the European team who weren't accompanied by a partner.

Born on September 18, 1997, in Oslo, Viktor is the only child of Galina and Harald Hovland. He studied at Oklahoma State University, where he developed his golfing skills and eventually started being referred to as an exciting young talent to watch.

Before turning professional, Viktor Hovland won the 2018 US Amateur Championship. He later became the first-ever Norwegian golfer to win a tournament on both the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour (formerly known as the European Tour).


How much has Viktor Hovland won on the PGA tour?

The 25-year-old Norwegian golfer made his debut on the leading American golf circuit, the PGA Tour, back at the 2018 Mayakoba Golf Classic (as an amateur), but missed the cut.

Hovland decided to turn pro just before the 2019 Travelers Championship. Later, in his pro debut match, he finished T54 on the leaderboard and earned his first paycheck of $16,560. He concluded his 2018-19 season with a total of $678,035 on-course earnings in the five matches he played.

The golfer has been a regular on PGA Tour since 2020, accumulating a whopping sum of $26,689,778 in on-course earnings.

Let's have a look at his year-wise earnings on the Tour:
