EFFORTLESS AND EFFECTIVE

Todd Anderson, Director of Instruction at the PGA TOUR Performance Center at TPC Sawgrass, highlights aspects of Ludvig Åberg’s swing that helped the young Swede win the Genesis Invitational in February.

Sweden's Ludvig Åberg is undoubtedly one of the game's rising stars on the PGA TOUR. The 25-year-old has already won twice in the U.S. including the Genesis Invitational in February, a tournament hosted by Tiger Woods. Ludvig owns one of the most text-book golf swings which he makes it look so effortless when striking a golf ball. Let’s examine his action and understand the fundamentals to this impressive swing.

1 Ludvig stands tall with his upper body, with a slight bend from the hips and a little knee flex in his set up.

2 On the takeaway, he takes the club freely in front of his body, with his hands under his left shoulder and the club head in line with his hands.
