That’s one way to hard launch your relationship.

Norway’s Viktor Hovland went public with girlfriend Tuva Dahl Jensen while at the Par 3 contest on the eve of the Masters Tournament on Wednesday.

Jensen, who is a 27-year-old Norwegian school teacher, served as Hovland’s caddie at Augusta National Golf Club — where they sealed the traditional event with a kiss.

The pair shared a few sweet moments, hugging and smiling together, as seen in other snapshots on the course.

Hovland, 28, and Jenson also posed for a photo with his Team Europe teammate Ludvig Aberg and girlfriend Olivia Peet, and Katherine Fitzpatrick, wife of English pro Matt Fitzpatrick, while on the fifth hole.

Jensen is from the city of Fredrikstad in Hovland’s native Norway, according to Dagbladet, a newspaper in Norway, which reported she teaches at the Children’s International School in Moss near Oslo.

She is the daughter of revue star Atle Jensen and Jeanett Dahl Jensen.

Although Hovland is private about his personal life, he’s had fun over the years joking about his single status.

He went viral at the Ryder Cup in 2023 for posing with the players’ wives of Team Europe after their victory in Rome.

Hovland reenacted the photo at the Ryder Cup with his teammates and their wives last year after Team Europe’s triumph at Bethpage Black.

Hovland is ranked 22nd in the world entering the 2026 Masters.

A seven-time PGA Tour winner, the 28-year-old Hovland has yet to capture a major.

He was ranked third in the world in January 2022.
