Viktor Hovland WDs from Waste Management Phoenix Open
The 2024 Waste Management Phoenix Open is all set to be held from February 8 - 11 at the TPC Scottsdale in Scottsdale, Arizona. The tournament will see a host of talented golfers take the stage. However, Viktor Hovland, the World No. 4 has decided to withdraw from the tournament.
Viktor Hovland played at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, which was held one week before the WM Phoenix Open. However, Hovland had quite a disappointing performance, tying for 58th on the leaderboard. While the reason for his withdrawal is not known, there is speculation that the Norwegian golfer has done so due to his disappointing performance at Pebble Beach.
The withdrawal will give Hovland time to recuperate and prepare for the Genesis Open, which would be held a week after the Phoenix Open. For now however, Viktor Hovland has been replaced by Victor Perez, who would now tee it up at TPC. Davis Riley, who also withdrew from the event, will be replaced by Ryan Fox.
