Ludvig Aberg started his professional career after a successful stint at the amateur level. He made his professional debut in June 2023 at the RBC Canadian Open, where he finished in a tie for 25th place.

He had his first top-10 finish at the John Deere Classic but then missed the cut at the Genesis Scottish Open. Ludvig Aberg finished fourth at the John Deere Classic soon after turning pro.

He has been in the headlines since the beginning of this year and after the John Deere tournament. Speaking about his game, Aberg remarked (via PGA Tour):

“If someone asked me that a couple of months ago, obviously, I would not have believed them. I like to think that I prepare well for each event. I like to have fun on the golf course and, you know, whenever Thursday comes around I like to be ready. But, you know, to me that’s nothing that I can control; it’s outside of my control. What I can do is prepare and play as well as I can and then see where that takes me.”

He won one event on the DP World Tour. Aberg clinched his first professional victory at the 2023 Omega European Masters.
