Jansen has bought into the philosophy. He has flourished since he stumbled into his first managerial job. His life changed when he was filling up his car at a petrol station on 5 December 2020. AZ had just discovered that their manager, Arne Slot, was in secret negotiations with Feyenoord. Slot was fired; AZ asked Jansen, Slot’s No 2, to take over as interim until the end of the season. All messages will be treated in the strictest confidence with eachmessageto the hotlinecosting one standard message at your standard network rate. Jansen got in touch with Jan Reker, an influential Dutch coach, in 1998. They spoke about a role at PSV Eindhoven’s academy. But Reker also asked Jansen about working abroad. An opportunity to move to Abu Dhabi and become Rinus Israël’s No 2 at Al Jazira followed.

I think that there's an American that sort of gets the most attention or right now is at least getting the most attention about supporting a club is, I say, laughable in the nicest and in most sincere way, because it is pretty funny when you think about it," said Horschel, who hopes to make it to three or four West Ham matches this season. "This isn't a sport that is a top three or four sport in America, and so it's pretty unique." Collaborating with the club, Horschel was soon able to show his West Ham love every time he was out on the course.

I strongly believe if you think you can control everything then stress will increase. If you have a calm mind, you’re able to make good decisions.” Through Noble, Horschel has also become friends with Rice, whom he met after winning last year' BMW PGA Championship. They all celebrated Horschel's win at dinner after the tournament. "Dec's a really good guy, and it's unbelievable to see someone like at 23 be as good as he is already," Horschel said. "He still hasn't even come close to reaching his potential, but he is so great already at his position and as a footballer." There is no parking available at London Stadium and parking restrictions will be in place and enforced in the local area. Stadium Store Opening Times

Writing brought Jansen clarity. He has swapped the pen for the keyboard now. He sits in front of his computer at the end of every season and thinks about how to improve. Two weeks after Horschel won the WGC and received Noble's text, he was approached at the Masters by West Ham minority owner Tripp Smith, who invited Horschel to a game at London Stadium in northeast London. "He knows a ton about West Ham. He's a very smart fan," Smith said. "All the English fans just really admire that. The West Ham fans love it. Even the fans that hate West Ham think it's awesome." Fans are also taking note of Horschel's allegiances for the Hammers even if they wish he supported a different Premier League team. Stuart Kerr/R&A/R&A via Getty Images Jansen enjoyed working with Israël, who captained Feyenoord to the European Cup in 1970. “One the things that I learned from him is just keeping everything in perspective,” he says. “Once you’re a young coach you want to control everything. I’ve learned over the years that once you’re in charge you cannot do everything by yourself. You need good people around you. AtLondon Stadium, fan experience is paramount, and we are committed to creating a safe, comfortable and enjoyable spectator experience.In that, London Stadium for football matches fully adheres to the FA Respect Code of Conduct, which can be read here.Jansen has worked at academy level and he has travelled. “I was turned down twice before I got into the pro licence,” he says. “The first time they told me: ‘You’re very talented, very ambitious, but you need more experience’.” Billy Horschel knows what's coming this weekend around Wentworth Golf Club in Surrey, England, during the BMW PGA Championship. London Stadium management reserves the right to deny entry to guests wearing clothing items or signs displaying offensive text and/or images The connection is down to Jansen’s mother, Sue Chaloner, who was one half of Spooky and Sue, a British-Dutch pop duo who had three top-10 hits in the Netherlands in the 70s. She had moved to Amsterdam for work but she was born in London and wanted the same for her son. Jansen understands why there is intrigue about his pop star mum. “She’s 70 and enjoying life,” he says. “She has her own school. She teaches drama, dance and singing. She follows my career. She tells me to follow my dreams and be very passionate. And enjoy it.” The hole or round may change, but the tune won't. Horschel will be serenaded with "I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles," the 104-year-old song that's been West Ham's anthem for about a century. It'll be a tip of the cap from the English crowd to the American golfer who has made his affinity for the Hammers widely known.

The support was unbelievable," Horschel told ESPN. "And then when I would sign autographs, take pictures, people would be like, 'Hey Billy, we love you. We love that you're supporting an English football club, we may be a Tottenham fan or we're an Arsenal fan or we support Man United,' whatever it may be, but they were so pleased that I was such a big fan and a supporter of the Premier League." He kept his support quiet, but after winning the WGC-Dell Match Play in Austin in March 2021, Horschel talked publicly about being a West Ham supporter. It led to an unexpected text message from Noble, who got Horschel's number from Francesco Molinari, a fellow PGA Tour golfer (and another West Ham fan), and it also led to Horschel being serenaded for the first time during a golf tournament. The fascination with English football is no surprise. Jansen was born in London and his grandparents lived in Aylesbury. The 50-year-old grew up in the Netherlands, but he speaks of “coming home” when he is in the UK and he is looking forward to taking his young AZ side to West Ham for the first leg of their Europa Conference League semi-final on Thursday evening. Horschel's love of West Ham has been recognized by the club and by fellow golfers on the PGA tour. Andrew Redington/Getty Images AZ have to be innovative. They do not have the finances of the dominant Dutch clubs, Ajax, Feyenoord and PSV, but they find ways to compete. They are fourth in the Eredivisie and have just won the Uefa Youth League. They bring players through, raise funds through sales and keep refreshing the team.

The West Ham bag and his support of an English club has endeared him to not just the West Ham faithful, but Premier League fans in general. That's in part because he's an American golfer embracing European soccer, but also because he's not supporting teams like Manchester United, Manchester City or Chelsea or Liverpool, Horschel quipped. Jansen, who was at the London Stadium to watch West Ham beat Manchester United on Sunday, talks about his footballing vision. He wants the ball but he also wants his team to be dynamic and flexible. “I’ve always been interested in what happens in Italy, Spain and the Premier League. You can learn if you’re open-minded. If you’re educated from the Dutch point of view you have a very offensive way of thinking. We were inspired by Rinus Michels and Johan Cruyff. Buses that run to these stations are numbers: 25, 86, 97, 104, 108, 158, 241, 257, 262, 276, 308, 425, 473, D8. Parking We talked a lot: about making sure that you enjoy what you’re doing every day. Don’t forget about that, even though you might work at a high level at some point. It is always about the love of the game and making talented players better.” The Stratford Hotel London is located in Olympic Park and around 0.6 miles to the stadium. Although on the pricier side, you can expect great amenities, including free WiFi, flat-screen TV, walk-in rain forest showers, and in-room spa services. The rooms are also pet-friendly!

The songs began on the first hole at the Open Championship at Royal St. George's in 2021 and continued again at the BMW PGA Championship about a month later, when the tournament was played outside of London. Being sang to by fans was different for Horschel, who's used to college football fans in America either cheering or chiding him, depending on their loyalties. London Stadium is completely cashless. Food and drink will be available inside the stadium and in the outside bar areas of the Billy Bonds Stand, with further information available in advance of the game on the Hammers Help centre For the past 15 years, West Ham has been competing with the Gators for Horschel's affection. The last two may be interchangeable, depending on the day, though they've come to learn to coexist, both in his heart and on his golf bag. This week, Horschel's West Ham support will be on display. He'll use a claret-and-blue West Ham-themed bag with the Hammers' crest, featuring the famed golden irons, displayed prominently on the sides. The Gators head will be the secondary logo on the front.

He adjusted to being the boss and earned the job on a permanent basis. “I had a few players come into my office and I was happy to hear them tell me I hadn’t changed,” he says. “But they could tell I was in charge now. That is one of the biggest compliments I could get. I was still the guy who wanted to make them better every day. But everybody could see, feel and hear that I was the guy in charge, even though I didn’t have to raise my voice or act differently. I just stayed who I was.”
