Viktor Hovland banked a cool $1 million Sunday with his win at the 2021 Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas.

He finished –18, one shot ahead of runner-up Scottie Scheffler. Scheffler made $375,000 for his second-place finish in the no cut, limited-field event.

Hovland continues his streak of winning only in tropical locales. The 24-year-old from Norway has won twice at Mayakoba in Playa Del Carmen, Mexico, and got his first career win at the Puerto Rico Open.

Collin Morikawa had a five-shot lead on Brooks Koepka at the start of the round before he faltered early and shot 41 on the front.
