The 34-year-old, a six-time winner on the PGA Tour, became a fan of West Ham while in college in London and the world No 25 will display West Ham’s colours and crest on his bag at Royal St George’s and has thanked the club for giving him permission to do so.
He wrote on Instagram: “Excited to rock my West Ham bag this week at The Open. Hopefully it brings me luck and support from the Hammer fans! And thank you to the club for allowing me to use the crest on the bag! #coyi.”
Horschel won the WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play back in March and revealed afterwards he had received a message of congratulations from West Ham captain Mark Noble.
