After the first day, Ludvig Åberg was far down on the results list in the second PGA playoff tournament – a shared 22nd place.

On Friday, he took revenge directly and hit a super round, and a tied course record of 63 strokes at Castle Pines in Colorado.

Today was much better, a much more relaxed day. I hit the ball much better. I'm happy, says Åberg according to Sportbladet.

The 24-year-old went on 63 strokes, nine under par. On one hole, Åberg was also close to a hole-in-one after hitting the flag from the tee.

It's cool, he continues according to the newspaper.

He now shares the course record with Australian Adam Scott, who set the new record earlier in the day.

Overall, Åberg is now at –9 and in third place after Adam Scott (–13), American Keegan Bradley (–10). On fourth place, Alex Norén (–8) is found. The Swedes will thus go out together, as the next-to-last ball on Saturday.
