Battling with illness, Ludvig Aberg was seen struggling at the event. The Swede who finished with T5 at the Sentry saw a drop to T42 because of the stomach flu. He started off the tournament with the lead. However, in the later rounds, the weather and his health affected the play.

The $20 million prize pot event of the 2025 calendar will tee off on January 29th, featuring the top 50 FedExCup standing players and the top 30 from OWGR. Aberg passes all that and is fortunately confirmed for participation in the event.

For the fans, it was a worry seeing him at the last event struggling with illness. However, now with some days off, he might have recovered. However, with many top names starting off their season with the AT&T Pebble Beach, it will be a tough competition for him to redeem after the T42 finish at the Farmers Insurance Open.

Which players will start off their season with AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am?

There have been a few names who have not participated in the PGA Tour because of personal or health reasons. However, for the fans, it is great news that 4 top names will be joining the course at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. The list has the world no. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who has been away from the course due to hand surgery after the Christmas celebration. The American professional has confirmed his participation.

Along with him, Rory McIlroy, Tommy Fleetwood, and Jordan Spieth will also start off their first PGA Tour event of the 2025 schedule.
