A Casual Chat with Viktor Hovland and Justin Thomas
Justin Thomas: Hey Viktor! How’s it going, man? Crushing it as always, I see! After that eagle on the 16th, you nearly made me spill my coffee.
Viktor Hovland: (laughs) Thanks, JT! I’m doing well. That eagle was one of those ‘hope for the best’ shots, but it turned out pretty sweet. Been working on keeping my game as sharp as yours.
Justin Thomas: Oh, come on, don’t be modest. Your short game has been on fire lately. Got any secret sauce you’re not telling us about?
Viktor Hovland: (smirking) If I told you, then it wouldn’t be a secret anymore, would it? But seriously, just been putting in the hours on the greens, working on my putting stroke. Those misses can’t keep haunting me forever.
Justin Thomas: Ain’t that the truth! So, I heard a little rumor that you’re into your gaming. How does a top-tier golfer handle those Call of Duty lobbies?
Viktor Hovland: Oh man, those lobbies are almost as competitive as the PGA Tour! But honestly, it’s a great way to unwind. Plus, it keeps my hand-eye coordination in top shape… that’s what I tell myself at least. (laughs)
Justin Thomas: Just don’t let the trash talk get to you! So, tell me, when you’re not on the course or dodging bullets in COD, what’s keeping you busy?
Viktor Hovland: A bit of everything, really. Been trying to get better at cooking, believe it or not. I’m aiming to master something other than Norwegian meatballs. What about you, JT? Any new hobbies or passions?
Justin Thomas: Cooking, huh? Next thing you know, we’ll see you on MasterChef! As for me, I’ve been dabbling in a bit of everything. Trying to get my golf trick shots game on point for Instagram. Gotta keep those followers entertained, you know?
Viktor Hovland: Haha, exactly! Maybe we should team up for a cooking and trick shot collab. The fans would love it… or at least have a good laugh at our expense!
Justin Thomas: Now that’s an idea! We’ll cook, golf, and game. On that note, have you set any big goals for the next season?
Viktor Hovland: Just to stay consistent and keep improving. I’ll take it one tournament at a time and see where it leads. And who knows, maybe snagging a win or two wouldn’t hurt. You?
Justin Thomas: Same here. Just gotta keep grinding and having fun out there. By the way, next time I’m hitting up your place, you better have some Norwegian meatballs ready!
Viktor Hovland: You got it, JT. And you better bring your A-game for the COD rematch!
Justin Thomas: Always. Catch you on the greens, buddy!
Viktor Hovland: You know it! See you out there.
