Who is golfer Ludvig Aberg, bio, age, height, weight, parents, world ranking, swing and stats
No golfer in the modern age had ever competed in a Ryder Cup before competing in a major, and none had ever made a Ryder Cup squad so soon after turning pro – in Aberg’s case, three months after finishing his tenure with the Red Raiders.
The earliest photographs of Ludvig Aberg’s swing were taken by an instructor at his neighbourhood golf club when he was 12 years old. Aberg was accepted to Filbornaskolan, a prominent boarding school in Helsingborg that attracts athletes from all across Sweden, when he was 15 years old. Several Olympic swimmers and golf professionals are among the school’s alumni, in addition to Henrik Larsson.
At the NCAA golf championship in Scottsdale, Arizona, he competed in his last college match. He had already achieved PGA Tour status and topped the PGA Tour University rankings by June. The 23-year-old Swede Aberg is living proof that Europe grows Ryder Cup stars on trees in the same way as Florida and California do with oranges.
