Åberg started Sunday at Augusta National with birdie, birdie, birdie and quickly and hilariously saw his last name come back onto the leaderboards out on the course.
The Swedish golf star was among the top ten.
"When I came out this morning, I tried to come out hot, which I did in a good way," Åberg said.
But the hot start came to an end.
Åberg gave himself a couple more birdie chances that were not taken. He made eight straight pars before it all happened on hole 12, the iconic short hole at the bottom of “Amen Corner.”
“Spiny hole”
The shot didn't even come close to reaching the green - and with the splash in the water, Åberg also lost his breath. It was a double bogey on the hole.
"It was probably the worst shot of the whole week. We were a bit between clubs, it's a tricky hole with the wind, of course. We played the 11th into the wind and then played this one into the wind. I tried to play a small eight-iron, but I hit it a little thick and put it in the water."
Åberg then found the water on hole 13 – for the third time this week – but still saved par. After birdie on 15, there were then bogeys on both 16 and 17.
It was a par round for Åberg, who finished at -3 overall, exactly where he started the day.
“Simple mistakes”
In his two previous starts in the Masters, Ludvig Åberg has finished second and seventh. This time it was a shared 21st place.
Åberg has made 20 birdies during the week, more than in previous years. But it hasn't been enough when he has also lost far too many strokes.
"A few too many simple mistakes that bother me. Now that I'm standing here, I'm of course disappointed with the result."
With hindsight, Ludvig Åberg would have had to match the course record (63 strokes) to equal Rory McIlroy, who won for the second year in a row at -12.
Alex Norén tied for 30th place at -1 overall. After a 77 in the first round, he went three under par over the remaining rounds (70 on Sunday) to reach his best finish in the Masters so far.
