Ludvig Åberg Set to Defend RSM Classic Title

Ludvig Åberg is set to defend his RSM Classic title after recovering from knee surgery in September, which repaired a torn medial meniscus. The Swedish golfer, ranked world No. 5, underwent surgery following the Tour Championship and took a month-long break from golf, spending time in New York with his girlfriend. Despite the injury affecting his ability to read putts initially, Åberg feels stronger and confirms he is 100% ready to return. His return is highly anticipated as he aims to become the first player to successfully defend the RSM Classic title, having previously tied the PGA Tour scoring record at the event. Additionally, the tournament serves as a critical opportunity for players to secure their positions in the top 125 of the FedEx Cup standings for the upcoming season.
