Norwegian star Viktor Hovland is set to tee it up in South Africa for the first time when he makes his Nedbank Golf Challenge debut at the Gary Player Country Club from 4-7 December 2025.
Hovland will make his third consecutive Ryder Cup appearance at Bethpage Black next week, as Team Europe look to defend the trophy they won two years ago.
The 27-year-old made history during that victory in Rome as he and fellow Scandinavian Ludvig Åberg recorded a 9&7 victory over world No 1 Scottie Scheffler and five-time major winner Brooks Koepka.
Excited to make Nedbank Golf Challenge debut
The world No 11 and 2023 FedExCup champion was the first player from Norway to win on both the DP World Tour and PGA Tour and claimed his 11th worldwide title with his victory at the Valspar Championship in Florida in March.
Viktor Hovland said: “I’m excited to tee it up at the Nedbank Golf Challenge for the first time this December. I’ve had a lot of cool experiences at DP World Tour events around the world, and I’m looking forward to adding this one to the list.
“It’s an event that has a lot of history, a great list of winners and, of course, in honour of Gary Player, so I’m sure it will be a great week.”
