Ludvig Åberg talks about entering the final round of The Players Championship with a 3-shot lead

  • In the third round Saturday, Ludvig Aberg shot a 1-under 71, leading by three shots at 13-under 203 at TPC Sawgrass, Ponte Vedra Beach.
  • Aberg's steady play included a second-round 63 and only two bogeys all week, plus his third eagle of the week with an 18-foot putt on the par-5 11th.
  • In the final group, Thorbjornsen, who shot a 66, is three shots back at 10-under and will play with Aberg in the final round.
  • A pack of contenders including Matt Fitzpatrick, Brian Harman, Viktor Hovland, Corey Conners, and Xander Schauffele was five shots behind at 8-under 208, while Cameron Young is third at nine-under after a double bogey on 18.
  • Looking to tomorrow, the final 18 holes on the Stadium Course can still be decisive, and Aberg's Ryder Cup appearance months after college could elevate his standing if he wins.
