ASMUS Hojgaard says he has had a “rough” few days after Europe’s Ryder Cup victory and ahead of the Sanderson Farms Championship in Mississippi.
Hojgaard tees it up at the Country Club of Jackson this weekend as the Dane immediately reacquaints himself with American galleries after the Bethpage Black crowds gave Luke Donald’s team - and Rory Mcllroy in particular - a tough time in New York.
The 24-year-old lost his two matches there - a 6&5 foursomes thrashing alongside Ludwig Aberg on the opening day and a narrow one-hole singles defeat to Ben Griffin - and said he had never experienced such a “stressful and pressure situation”.
“The energy level is not very high,” said Hojgaard, ranked 56th in the world and 87th in the current FedExCup standings on the PGA Tour.
“The last few days it's been quite rough, but it was all worth it. Whatever the outcome would have been last week, I was still going to tee it up this week.
