“I’m really proud of the way I played,” Van Royen said after ending his race on Sunday. “We spoke last night, and I told you it would be a steep mountain to climb, and it was. Scottie was practically perfect, which is the type of what you expect from world No. 1”

While Van Royen did not win, he gathered 300 points of FedEx Cup who threw Aon swinging 5, scoring his ticket to the next week’s Truist Championship. However, gaining the entrance to the signature event did not exactly fill Van Royen with joy. South Africa has repeatedly criticized the model and offered a brutally sincere appreciation of his feelings after qualifying for the Philly Cricket Club next week.
“How honest do you want to be me?” Van Royen said when asked how he felt to qualify for the $ 20 million event. “I hate it. I strongly believe that the strongest fields are those with the biggest players in them. The boys in PGA Tour are so good. I get so deep. I get you have Scotties of the World, Roras of the World, and people want to see them, it’s fun.
“I love to compete, as selfish as I want to compete against those boys. Again, really proud to play my way in it.”
Van Royen described the entrance to the Truist championship as “a good problem for having”. He planned to go home with his mother and dad after Byron Nelson and “Relax”, but will now be re -shared in Philadelphia.
At last year’s Arnold Palmer of last year, Van rooyen i told Brentley Romine to Golf Channel that he is against the idea of making PGA Tour “weaker” and “more cut”. While he likes to play in the big money events, he told Romine that he does not like the place where she is a professional golf.
“I think this idea that we are worth what is worth the Premier League football players is fully in mind,” Van Royen Romine Mars told Van Rooyen. “I’m sorry, Jon Rahm, you are a fantastic player, but you are not worth the zeros they gave you, you are not worth more than what Cristiano Ronaldo is doing. I’m sorry, we don’t have as much as we are NBA, we are not NFL.
35-year-old Van Royen will be joined by Garrick Higgo, Michael Thorbjornsen, Sam Stevens and Rasmus Hojgaard as other members of Swing 5.
After that, it is in Quail Hollow Club for the PGA 2025 championship.
