During his years in the world elite, Norway’s biggest golf star has participated in several tournaments where he has our markings with different messages. When Viktor Hovland’s PGA colleague Camillo Villegas lost his daughter to cancer, the players posed with rainbow bows on their caps to honor the deceased girl. She loves rainbows.

WITHOUT LOOP: Day 1WITHOUT LOOP: Day 1WITHOUT LOOP: Day 1WITHOUT LOOP: Day 2WITHOUT LOOP: Day 2WITHOUT LOOP: Day 3WITHOUT LOOP: Day 3WITHOUT LOOP: Day 3 During the big tournament US Open, news had the opportunity on the various markings. – It’s just because I’m forgetful, the 24-year-old explains and laughs. – I wear different caps and a lot of weird things every day, and I’m just too forgetful. So to put it on in the morning, I’m not very good at that, he elaborates. Hovland emphasizes that the absence of the loop has nothing to do with him taking an opposite position: – It does not mean that I do not support those cases, says Hovland, who recently stated to news that he for example has no plans to participate in the controversial The Liv series. – Sick to drive in such countries Dennis Hauger also competes and asserts himself in a world where several of the profiles use their voices and platforms for more than “just” sports.

He himself is not quite ready to mean too much, but he admits that the season has given him some wake-up calls. Competitions in controversial countries such as Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Azerbaijan have led to the teenager being asked questions about his own understanding of the sports policy game behind the scenes. – Of course, on the one hand it is important to bring out such things, but on the other hand I am only 19 years old. There are many young athletes who may not be the right people to respond to such things yet, says Hauger. FORMULA COMED: Dennis Hauger. Photo: Gunnar Bratthammer / news He is still happy that the bigger stars use their voice, and he acknowledges that the experiences in Saudi Arabia this spring were of the special kind. Then there was a missile attack in the vicinity of the field at the same time as the team completed their training. – It is a bit sick to drive in such countries, but it is not up to us where we get to drive. There and then we were told that it was the safest place to be, but it is obviously not a cool feeling when one is in such a country and such things happen, he says, and adds: – It gives you some extra thoughts and also about how lucky we are in Norway. He himself does not disregard the fact that after a quarter of an hour he will use his voice more. – Yes, maybe, if there is something I find important to clarify, the Formula One driver concludes.
