Billy Horschel is nobody's idea of a fun time in a match play event, and that proved true this week at the WGC-Dell Match Play as the fast-talking shot-maker won for the sixth time in his PGA Tour career by defeating Scottie Scheffler 2&1 in the finals at Austin Country Club. Horschel is relentless as both a personality and a golfer, and that can make for a tough week for his opponents. Horschel never stopped chattering. You could hear him hollering "good shot," or "great leave," or "nice roll" from the minute shots were in the air on Wednesday. Horschel defeated Max Homa in the opener, lost to J.T. Poston 4&2 on Thursday and then defeated Collin Morikawa 3&2 in a flawless performance to move on to the weekend. The former Florida Gator is always plugged in and seemingly never slows down, which can be half the battle when you play up to seven matches in five days. This is especially true toward the end of the week as Horschel entered Saturday needing to win four matches in 36 hours to take the tournament. He won the first two over Kevin Streelman and Tommy Fleetwood over the course of 36 holes on Saturday.More Related News
