BREAKING: Just announced, PGA Tour fan favorite Billy Horschel is officially back on the green, set to defend his title at the BMW PGA Championship in England from September 11-14, 2025. After a four-month hiatus due to a serious hip injury that required surgery, Horschel shared his exciting news on social media, declaring he would be traveling to the Wentworth Club for the prestigious event.
In a surprising post on X, Horschel confirmed his participation, energizing fans eager to see his return to professional golf. Earlier today, he also reposted a PGA Tour announcement detailing his recovery process. His name is officially listed among competitors for the upcoming championship, signaling a strong comeback.
Horschel’s abrupt season halt last May raised concerns among fans. He underwent right hip surgery, stating, “It’s an unfortunate situation with so many great events left on the calendar but this is a preventative measure.” In the same video, he optimistically projected his return by late summer or early fall—and he has delivered.
His participation at the BMW PGA Championship not only marks a significant return but also hints at potential appearances during the PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup Fall series. Last season, Horschel claimed victory at this very event, finishing with an impressive score of 20-under after a gripping playoff against Rory McIlroy and Thriston Lawrence. Horschel triumphed with a stunning eagle on the second playoff hole, solidifying his status as a top contender.
The excitement surrounding Horschel’s return is palpable, and golf enthusiasts are eager to see how he performs after a challenging recovery. His recent season saw him playing only 12 events, making seven cuts and achieving two top-10 finishes, with his best result being a tie for fourth at the Valspar Championship.
As the golf world prepares for the BMW PGA Championship, all eyes will be on Horschel to see if he can reclaim his title and demonstrate the strength and skill that made him an eight-time PGA Tour winner.
Stay tuned for more updates as this story develops and golf fans worldwide anticipate the thrilling tournament ahead.
