Ludvig Åberg Leads The Players Championship

Ludvig Åberg is in full control of The Players Championship, maintaining his lead with a 1-under 71 on Moving Day at TPC Sawgrass.

He now sits at 13-under, three shots ahead of second-place Michael Thorbjornsen at 10-under.

Åberg fired a steady round, despite not being special, to keep his lead over the field.

The European Ryder Cup star has two wins on Tour in his career, most recently at The Genesis Invitational last year.

The day started a little later than scheduled as police investigated a Friday night shooting near the golf course.

Players teed off as normal, but spectators were held outside the gates until 9 a.m. local time.

Scottie Scheffler tore up the golf course with five birdies, rocketing up the leaderboard to get to 4-under.

Rory McIlroy struggled through an up-and-down even-par round, clearly not playing with the kind of sharpness he’d expect of himself.

Sudarshan Yellamaraju made one of the best rounds of the day, a 67, to get to 5-under on the week.

If he can pull it off on Sunday, it’ll mark the biggest win of his career by far.

Åberg is looking to capitalize on his lead and take home the championship.

He started the day with a two-shot lead and ended with a three-shot lead, a positive for sure, he said.

The final day will be crucial in determining the winner of The Players Championship.

Ludvig Åberg is focused on approaching things the right way and staying committed to his game.

He has a good chance of winning, but he needs to maintain his lead and play well on Sunday.

The players are ready for the final day, and the spectators are eager to see who will take home the championship.
