Hovland ‘shocked’ by revamped East Lake layout

Viktor Hovland expressed shock at the recently revamped layout of the East Lake Golf Club. The course, which hosts the Tour Championship, has undergone significant changes, including the addition of several new bunkers and water hazards.

Hovland, who won the FedEx Cup last year, said the changes will make the course more challenging and exciting.

“I was shocked when I saw the new layout,” Hovland said. “It’s going to be a completely different course than it was last year.”

The most noticeable change is the addition of a new bunker on the 18th hole, which will make it more difficult for players to hit the green in two shots. The fairway has also been narrowed, making it more difficult to drive the ball.

Hovland said he is excited to see how the new layout plays out.

“I think it’s going to be a great test of golf,” Hovland said. “I’m looking forward to the challenge.”

‘It’s a shame’: LPGA star argues Trump course should host the Open again

LPGA star Jennifer Kupcho expressed her disappointment with the decision to remove the Trump National Golf Club Bedminster from consideration for hosting the U.S. Women’s Open. Kupcho argued that the course is “one of the best in the world” and that excluding it “is a shame.” She also mentioned the economic benefits that the tournament would bring to the area. Kupcho’s comments echo those of other golfers, including Stacy Lewis and Lexi Thompson, who have spoken out in support of the Trump course. The USGA announced in 2022 that it would no longer hold events at Trump-owned properties due to concerns about the former president’s divisive rhetoric.

Kuchar shoots 64 again, leads by 1 at Wyndham

Matt Kuchar shot a second consecutive 64 on Friday to take a one-stroke lead into the weekend at the Wyndham Championship.

“I’m very pleased,” Kuchar said. “I drove the ball well, hit my irons well, and made some putts. It was a good day.”

Straka, who is seeking his first PGA Tour victory, had a bogey-free round with six birdies. He is tied with Russell Henley, who also shot a 65.

“I’m really happy with the way I’m playing,” Straka said. “I’m hitting the ball well and making some putts. I’m just trying to stay patient and take it one shot at a time.”
