What did Ludvig Aberg say after winning the European Masters?
Despite starting the final round with a bogey, the Swedish golfer bounced back at the Crans-sur-Sierre in Switzerland. Yet, he finished 6 under 64 and his scorecard included a bogey and seven birdies.
Speaking of his win at the European Masters, as per European Tour's official website, Ludvig Aberg said:
"I don't even know where to start, it's a pretty surreal feeling to be honest. Obviously super, super happy."
However, he wasn't in contention to win after the end of the third round. Matt Fitzpatrick was leading the table and it took some sensational golf from Aberg to cover the lead and earn his first-ever DP World Tour title.
Ludvig Aberg shared that he already had the belief that he could cover the three-stroke lead. He added that he did not make easy putts earlier on, but, got it right in the back nine holes.
"I've always had that belief that I've been able to do it, but to do it is pretty cool. I started the day three back, I knew Matt was playing well so I needed to put a big score up. Felt I was playing pretty well all day, just wasn't making any putts. Got it going on the back nine," Aberg said.
Ludvig Aberg shot 4 under 31 in the back nine holes of the final round. He shot four consecutive birdies from the 14th to the 17th hole to win the European Masters.
