Throwback to the World Number 1 Scottie Scheffler crying after getting a 9&7 beat down with Brooks Koepka by Ludvig Aberg, who was in college 4 months prior to that event, and Viktor Hovland. The Ryder Cup consistently delivers all kinds of shocks!
PGA Tour records set or tied this week by Ludvig Aberg:
- Ties lowest 72-hole total ever (253)
- Lowest 54-hole score ever (rounds 2-4, 186)
- Ties lowest 36-hole total ever (122)
- Lowest score over final 2 rounds ever
The two youngest players on the European Ryder Cup team—Nicolai Hojgaard (22) and Ludvig Aberg (24)—both winning on the last week of the season is adding insult to American injury after Marco Simone. This Scandinavian wave (those two, plus Hovland) is not messing around.
It's quite wild to think that, in a few hours, Ludvig Aberg could have won on the PGA Tour, won on the DP World Tour, played on a winning Ryder Cup team, and cracked the world's top-50... all without having played in a major.
