Remember the name: Sweden’s Ludvig Aberg is a big shot in a short time
Hindustan TimesLudvig Aberg has indeed all the makings of a generational player. In a famous foursome contest on the second day of the event, he and his Norwegian partner Viktor Hovland showed up world number one Scottie Scheffler and Brooks Koepka, a winner of five majors. Although, Koepka got his own back on Aberg in the singles round but by that time the young Swede had played his part in the hosts’ 16.5-11.5 win. He shot back-to-back rounds of 61 to clinch the title by four strokes and take home a massive winner’s prize of $1,512,000 besides 500 FedEx Cup Fall Points. Since turning professional in June that saw him become the first player to join the American tour directly from the PGA Tour University, Aberg has featured in 14 professional events, including 11 on the PGA Tour, and in a great testament to his talent, he has made the cut 13 times.
