Navy grad Hurley sails to 1st title

BETHESDA, Md. (AP) — Billy Hurley III held the club in his left hand and fist pumped with his right. The ball disappeared into the hole in front of him as the crowd roared, and Hurley let loose the emotion he’d been holding in.
“That’s probably like the most emotion I’ve ever shown in my life,” Hurley said.
An hour later, not far from his Annapolis home and the Naval Academy he graduated from 12 years ago, Hurley became a champion. He shot a 2-under 69 on Sunday to win his hometown Quicken Loans National at Congressional for his first PGA Tour victory.
“Couldn’t be a better tournament to win from all the facets of it,” Hurley said with the trophy in front of him. “From just being close to home, being close to the Academy, close to where I grew up. It’s just perfect.”
The 607th-ranked player in the world finished at 17 under in Tiger Woods’ annual tournament, three strokes ahead of three-time major champion Vijay Singh, who said it was nice to see Hurley play well and not lose it at the end.

本日気になった表現は “all the facets of it” です。
“facet” を『新英和大辞典』(第五版, 研究社)を調べると, 「(物事の)面, 相」とありました。Meriam-Webster.com には “any of the definable aspects that make up a subject ( as of contemplation ) or an object ( as of consideration )” と定義されています。今回は “couldn’t be a better” の原因が “from” と共起していますので, 「試合にあたって, 万全の態勢で臨むことができた」と捉えられるのではないかと思います。( Cayu )
PS 以前, “facet” の記事が取り上げられていました。
