After qualifying for the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am via Aon Next 10, Ludvig Åberg recorded his second top-10 of the season, falling just one stroke shy of Wyndham Clark, who earned his third PGA TOUR title over the weekend.
A second-round 65 saw Åberg rise to the top of the leaderboard, partaking in a three-way tie heading into Saturday, which would later be deemed the final round following Sunday’s inclement weather. Back-to-back bogey-free rounds resulted in a runner-up finish for Åberg, who secured his second consecutive finish inside the top-10. Åberg, the No. 1 finisher in the 2023 PGA TOUR University Ranking, will next compete in the third Signature Event of the season, The Genesis Invitational (Feb. 15-18).
The WM Phoenix Open at TPC Scottsdale will run Thursday through Sunday, and the field will feature Adrien Dumont de Chassart, Austin Eckroat, Chris Gotterup, Davis Thompson and Kevin Yu. Thompson, who finished No. 2 in the 2021 PGA TOUR University Ranking, is set to make his second appearance at the WM Phoenix Open after playing via a sponsor exemption last year.
