If there is an award for the most consecutive viral golf outfits in majors, Viktor Hovland is running away with it. The Norwegian golfer has been making waves with his fashion choices, and his latest appearance at the 2023 PGA Championship has once again caught the attention of golf enthusiasts worldwide.
Hovland’s pink and green floral polo at the Masters created a buzz, with the shirt selling out globally on J. Lindeberg’s website. Now, at the PGA Championship, he is turning heads with his bright orange-themed outfit.
When asked about his flamboyant attire, Hovland gave a hilariously honest response, saying, “They give me this stuff and pay me money to do so, so I just show up and wear what they want me to wear.”
But the fun didn’t stop there. Hovland’s Friday outfit surpassed Thursday’s by a mile. While the hints of orange on his first-day ensemble were merely a tease, he arrived for the second round sporting highlighter orange pants. His mostly white polo featured ombre colored stripes down the sides, a style that seems to be a trend for him this week.

Viktor Hovland’s fashion flair steals the show, but can he match it on the course?
While his bottom half showcased a Rickie Fowler-esque flair, Viktor Hovland admitted that the top portion of his outfit wasn’t exactly his favorite. Nevertheless, he continues to make waves not only with his fashion choices but also with his performance on the golf course.
This is Hovland’s fourth appearance at a major championship, with his best previous finish being a tie for 30th in 2021. He got off to a promising start at Oak Hill Country Club, shooting a 2-under par 68 on Thursday before play was suspended due to darkness. Despite being three strokes behind the leader, Eric Cole, Hovland’s appearance seemed to garner more attention than his performance throughout the tournament.
According to SI, While Hovland’s viral outfits may steal the spotlight, it’s worth noting that he is an accomplished golfer with three PGA Tour victories under his belt. As the tournament progresses, fans and critics will be eagerly watching not only for his fashion choices but also to see if he can make a significant impact on the leaderboard.
Viktor Hovland’s latest viral outfit at the 2023 PGA Championship has once again captivated golf fans worldwide. His fearless fashion choices and his hilariously honest comments about his attire have added an extra layer of intrigue to the tournament.
As Hovland tees off in his distinctive ensembles, the golfing world will be waiting to see if his performance matches the buzz surrounding his fashion-forward presence on the course.
