PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Not nearly as flashy, Ludvig Åberg was nonetheless effective, putting himself in position for his biggest win to date as a professional with a solid third round on Saturday at the Players Championship.
A day after going 5 under par in his first four holes on his way to a 63, Åberg was far more steady while extending his lead in the process, outplaying two-time major winner Xander Schauffele in the final group at TPC Sawgrass to take a three-shot advantage into the final round Sunday.
