An injury is a roadblock that no golfer wants in his career. The same goes for Ludvig Aberg. Earlier this year, the golfer faced a knee injury which he doesn’t like to talk about. The Swedish golfer had to withdraw from the Wells Fargo Championship, citing physical issues that required rest and consultation with his doctors. Is the injury serious? Well, it could be.

According to the Golf Channel reporter, Todd Lewis, Aberg suffered a partial tear in his knee meniscus while lifting in the gym, but he is fine as of now. However, if the tear worsens, it can potentially lead to surgery and several days of rest. His injury, however, did not disrupt Aberg’s performance at the Memorial Tournament, and he finished at the T7 after the second round. What the golfer had to say about the injury? Surprisingly, not much. In an interview with the Memorial Tournament, the golfer said, “I think that’s between me and my doctors. It is what it is. It’s between me and my doctors,” not revealing the details. Moreover, that is not the only time Aberg has stayed tight-lipped when it comes to his injuries. 

In a recent press conference with the 152nd Championship, the golfer was asked about the reason for his Scottish open loss, and if it could potentially be his knee injury. To no one’s surprise, the golfer was almost quiet and gave the cold one-worded reply, “No”. However, after some time, Aberg did say it was his swing that led to this loss. Wondering what was Aberg’s overall performance? Keep reading and see for yourself!

Ludvig Aberg’s performance at the 2024 Scottish Open

The fourth round at the Renaissance Club saw Robert MacIntyre take his winning swing with the prize money of $1.62 million from the overall $9 million purse. The Genesis Scottish Open has seen several players take the trophy home with a grin on their faces. However, Ludvig Aberg might be the only player to be happy with the ultimate loss. 

Aberg’s performance was quite consistent for all four rounds. For the first two rounds, the golfer made the stunning score of 64 at six under par. In the third round, Aberg performed better than the first two rounds and finished with 65 at five under par. It was the last round that took a toll on Aberg’s performance. The golfer’s score for Sunday’s round landed at an average score of 73 with three over par. 

Although the Swedish player might have lost the game, he still did quite a decent job and ended up with the T4 position on the leaderboard and made a whopping $330,750. “Not the most stress-free golf, but it was again a good score,” Aberg told the PGA Tour Website. “I’m pleased with the way I hung in there and finished it out.” The golfer is ready for the next challenge at the Royal Troon.
