Photos: Billy Horschel through the years

The biggest Florida Gators fan you’ll find on Tour, Billy Horschel loves the game as much as he loves his alma mater.

A seven-time winner on the PGA Tour, Horschel has had plenty of close brushes with history. In 2013, he was a weekend co-leader with Phil Mickelson and finished T-4 at the U.S. Open, his first career major as a professional.

Since then, Horschel’s best finish in a major was at the 2016 Masters (T-17) and the 2022 Open Championship (T-21). It hasn’t been all doom and gloom for Horschel though. He capped off a fantastic year in 2014 with a great playoff run. Horschel finished the year with back-to-back wins at the BMW Championship and the TOUR Championship.

More recently, Horschel won the 2021 WGC-Dell Technology Match Play, defeating Scottie Scheffler 2&1 in the finals, and cruised to win the 2022 Memorial by four shots.

Despite always being around the top of leaderboards year in and year out, Horschel has yet to represent the United States in team competitions as a professional. Thrice repping the stars and stripes as an amateur, Horschel was on the 2007 Walker Cup team and the 2007 and 2008 Arnold Palmer Cup teams.

At 35 years old, Horschel may finally get the nod at the 2022 Presidents Cup, further cementing his legacy as a top-tier pro during the past decade.
