Viktor Hovland Was Already A Ryder Cup Icon, But This Photo Solidifies Him As A Legend

Are we sure we can't do trades in the Ryder Cup? I know Viktor Hovland was born in Norway, but come on. He went to Oklahoma State. He's not recreating the legendary Rickie picture, he one-upped it.

Posing with all the wives? Yeah, Hovland deserves that. He was easily one of the two or three best players the entire weekend. Go ahead and make an argument for Rahm, Rory or him. You won't be wrong. It wasn't just the picture with the wives he has this one too: 

I can't even be mad at Hovland for doing something like this. You win, you get to do whatever the hell you want. I know Rickie went on to marry Allison Stokke. Not a bad life. But posing with the entire wives and girlfriend? That's an elite move. We should try this out. We tried the no hat look. We talked about the locker room not being split. Time to let all the wives and girlfriend pose with a single guy. 

Dude broke our backs on Friday. That putt he hit on 18 in the afternoon sessions sealed it all. Then he made Scottie cry by beating him so bad and then won singles. Dude was lights out.
