How much Viktor Hovland and others won at Tiger Woods' Hero World Challenge
This is how much Viktor Hovland and the rest of the field won at Tiger Woods' 2022 Hero World Challenge in Albany, Bahamas.
Tiger Woods' Hero World Challenge was won by Viktor Hovland in dramatic circumstances after finding water at the final hole in Albany.
It was all the more special for the Norwegian as he successfully defended the title he won last year.
Moreover, Hovland is the only player other than Woods himself to have defended this 20-man invitational on the PGA Tour.

The 25-year-old summed up that by telling the media: "That's pretty bad ass."
In the end, Hovland's 272 strokes last week saw him reach a total of 16-under par, which was two clear of former World No.1 Scottie Scheffler.
Unfortunately for Hovland, he is still stuck on three PGA Tour wins because the Hero World Challenge is unofficial.
Yet this will go down as a memorable victory, given the considerable strength of the field.
The total prize purse for the 2022 Hero World Challenge was $3.5m.
Hovland took home the lion's share of that purse, earning a cool $1m.
