“It ain’t no animal trophy, but it’ll do,” wrote Hovland. The Norwegian meant the last couple of trophies he has won in the last three months were animal trophies. The World Wide Technology trophy was of a chameleon, while the Hero World Challenge trophy was of a Tiger. Hence, Viktor humorously wrote on his Instagram that it’s okay, even though the Dubai Desert Classic trophy is not an animal trophy. 

Meanwhile, Viktor Hovland was six strokes behind, going into the final round. Hence, not many people had given him a chance, as Rory McIlroy was looking in an incredible form. But Viktor hung in there and gave it all, especially on the 17th and 18th hole. He eagled the par-4 17th by reaching the green in one and birdied the final hole to finish with a score of -12. 

Furthermore, Richard Bland birdied the final two holes to share the lead with Hovland and Rory. But sadly, McIlroy debacle on the final hole and carded a bogey to finish the event at -11. Hence, Richard Bland and Viktor Hovland competed in the playoff, where the Norwegian emerged as the champion.
