The 25-year-old is a three-time winner on the PGA Tour having clinched the Puerto Rico Open and World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba twice.
Hovland became the first Norwegian to win on the PGA Tour when he won the 2020 Puerto Rico Open as he secured a one-stroke victory over Josh Teater.
The Oslo-born player picked up his second PGA Tour win, and his first at a full-strength PGA Tour tournament, by birdieing the 72nd hole at the 2020 Mayakoba Golf Classic.
Hovland then successfully defended his title at the World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba in Playa del Carmen, Mexico last year.

The 2022 Slync.io Dubai Desert Classic (PGA European Tour event) winner is looking forward to competing at Mayakoba.
“Mayakoba is a very special place to me, having played my first PGA Tour event there; I missed my first two cuts playing in the event," Hovland said.
"But it was nice to get some revenge and win the next two and I look forward to adding more to that. For me, the week of Mayakoba is almost like a vacation,
"It’s the best Resort I’ve ever been to, and the golf course is in excellent condition. It’s a perfect work-vacation balance, I love everything about it.”
