Ludvig Aberg admits he’s got an issue with his swing ahead of The Masters starting on Thursday

Ludvig Aberg has admitted that there’s something wrong with his golf swing at the moment.

The 25-year-old, who emerged onto the PGA Tour scene before the Ryder Cup in 2023, is widely regarded as one of the best players in the world.

However, Aberg has struggled recently, missing the cut at The Players Championship and last week’s Valero Texas Open.

Before The Masters starts on Thursday, the Swede told reporters what he has been working on lately.

Ludvig Aberg ‘really doesn’t like’ one part of his golf swing
Most PGA Tour players would love to swing like Aberg, but he’s noticed an issue with his move.

Indeed, the world number five said in his pre-Masters press conference that he’s been trying to fix some bad tendencies lately.

He explained: “Yeah, I sort of have this thing in my backswing where I get a little bit quick technically and my spine leans towards the target in my backswing, and I really don’t like that because from there I have to go this way and I get across and underneath it.

“It’s just sort of my tendencies that I always have to work on, and I’ve felt like over these last couple weeks, those have been a little bit more apparent. I felt like I buttoned up a little bit last week, even though it wasn’t amazing.”

Aberg doesn’t seem too concerned about the apparent fault in his swing, though, adding that he remains “very optimistic about the way it’s looking at the moment.”

Ludvig Aberg will struggle to better Masters debut performance
Aberg made his first-ever Masters appearance last season and finished second to Scottie Scheffler.

He was the only player with a chance to stop the American from claiming his second Green Jacket on Sunday afternoon until he found the water on the 11th hole.

A double bogey there effectively ended his hopes of winning, but it was still an exceptional debut performance.

He will now be hoping to go one better at Augusta National this week, despite his underwhelming recent form.
