Sharing fourth place with Morikawa in 2024, Ludvig Åberg (+3000) returns for the third time to The Renaissance Club. The winner at the expansive Torrey Pines South Course at The Genesis Invitational in February, the powerful Swedish youngster has not picked up a top-10 payday since T7 at the Masters. Playing his college golf in the windy conditions of West Texas for four years, he tuned his game in similar conditions. Last summer at the 2024 Genesis Scottish Open, he sat two clear after 54 holes, but was swept up by the Scottish steamroller, Robert MacIntyre (+3300), who beat him by six shots in the final pairing on Sunday.
