Ludvig Aberg is one of the biggest names in the professional game right now.
Aberg has only won two PGA Tour tournaments but at the age of 26, he is well on track to go on and achieve a Hall of Fame career.

The Swede is in contention to win this week at the Valero Texas Open, and his game seems to be in fine shape heading into The Masters.
Aberg is sensational to watch when he is in full flow and his swing must be the envy of many a PGA Tour player.
Rich Beem suggested on Saturday that Ludvig Aberg is one of the best ball-strikers on the PGA Tour, and he’s definitely not wrong.
But which golfer in particular does Aberg himself rate highly?
Ludvig Aberg names the most underrated golfer in the game
The talented PGA Tour star recently sat down to speak with The Golfer’s Journal about all things golf.
Aberg was asked who he believes is the most underrated golfer on the PGA Tour right now.

However, the Swede threw a curveball by suggesting that the golfer who doesn’t get enough recognition for his talent isn’t even playing on the PGA Tour right now.

“Well, I mean obviously he’s not on the PGA Tour right now,“ Aberg said.
“But Tyrrell Hatton is amazing. I think he’s a really good player.“
Aberg obviously knows Tyrrell Hatton very well indeed, with the duo having played on the same European Ryder Cup team at Marco Simone and Bethpage Black.
Hatton is actually one of the few players who the PGA Tour have missed since he joined LIV Golf in January 2024.
Tyrrell Hatton is an elite talent
The 34-year-old Englishman’s game has actually improved since joining the Saudi-backed league and he is currently ranked 31st in the world – a huge achievement considering the fact that LIV only started receiving world ranking points at the beginning of this year.

He has only won once on the PGA Tour – at the Arnold Palmer Invitational in 2020.
However, he has eight DP World Tour victories to his name, as well as one LIV Golf win.
Hatton has played on four European Ryder Cup teams, finishing on the winning side three times.
He possesses a terrific Ryder Cup record, with eight wins, four defeats and three losses to his name.
Tyrrell Hatton is unquestionably an elite golfer, just like Ludvig Aberg said he is.
However, it’s a crying shame that we don’t see him compete against the best golfers in the world outside of the four major championships.
