Erik van Rooyen secured his second career victory on the PGA Tour at the 2023 World Wide Technology Championship. With a back-nine score of 28, he finished the tournament at 27 under, surpassing players such as Matt Kuchar, Camilo Villegas, and Justin Suh. This win guarantees van Rooyen a PGA Tour card for the next two years, access to signature events in 2024, and an invitation to the 2024 Masters. During his emotional victory, van Rooyen dedicated each shot to his best friend who is terminally ill. Despite the pressure from other players, van Rooyen remained calm and focused on the bigger things in life. In the end, he believed that winning or losing didn’t really matter when playing for something greater. Villegas, who held the lead early on in the final round, finished tied for second with a score of 25 under. While he couldn’t maintain his lead, this result marked his first top 10 finish on the PGA Tour since the 2021 Honda Classic. Ludvig Aberg, another notable contender, placed 10th with a score of 19 under. His strong performance in Mexico extends his streak of seven consecutive top 15 finishes worldwide and secures his spot in the Players Championship in 2024. Beau Hossler, ranked 51st in the FedEx Cup, finished tied for 15th with a score of 17 under. This result should secure his participation in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and the Genesis Invitational in 2024. Cameron Young, the reigning PGA Tour Rookie of the Year, struggled after an impressive opening round. He finished tied for 54th with a score of 13 under. Sahith Theegala, the Fortinet Championship winner, had a disappointing performance and missed the cut. Despite this setback, Theegala’s past successes ensure that this is just a blip in his career.
