"It's not very good," said Hovland, as quoted by ESPN.
"Yeah, it's been frustrating. I do feel like I'm making headway and I'm constantly trying to put the piece of the puzzle together. Even if I'm not seeing results from day to day, which is extremely frustrating, I do feel like I'm learning more."

The European golfer will not be disappointed if he is not great at The Pebble Beach Pro-Am, looking optimistically at the future. Golf fans know that Hovland is one of the more talented golfers, who has the potential to win major tournaments. Of course, frustrations are there, which is natural to happen when things don't go well.
However, the most important thing is to work day by day, with the belief that it can be better.

"Even if kind of that domino doesn't start to fall today or tomorrow or the next day, I'm hoping the cumulative effect of that knowledge and experience, eventually I'll get over that hump and we'll turn things around. Right now, it's pretty frustrating. This game of golf, as I said earlier, it's very elusive, it's counterintuitive and it's very difficult right now."
The great golfer broke his right pinkie toe before his first signature event, The Sentry. The Norwegian golfer says his toe is now fine, with no pain. The young golfer believes he won't have any problems when it comes to the next tournament.
The Pebble Beach Pro-Am could be a new opportunity for him. Hovland admitted that this is one of his favorite courses in the world.
