He was using Titleist wedges at the US Open but has Ping wedges in the image seen below.
“Joining the Ping staff is really exciting for me as I’ve always had tremendous respect for the company and what it represents,” said Hovland.
“The technology behind the equipment and the service they provide allows me to focus on getting better and not worrying about my equipment.
"The Norwegian connection is also really cool. Karsten Solheim and his family have done so much for the game of golf.
"Their support of Oklahoma State’s team and their role in developing Karsten Creek are just a couple of examples of the wonderful things they do for golf. I’m honored to be part of their golfing family and look forward to working with them as I begin my professional career.”
