Fuzzy Zoeller was the last player to triumph at Augusta National on their tournament debut in 1979, 20 years before Aberg was born.
Dan Pohl lost a play-off to Craig Stadler in 1982 and there have also been runners-up finishes for Jordan Spieth, Jonas Blixt and Sungjae Im, but Aberg faces a tall order to make history despite a brilliant start to his career.
After turning professional in June, Aberg won the final Ryder Cup qualifying event in Switzerland to earn a wild card from captain Luke Luke Donald and helped Europe regain the trophy in Rome, one of his two wins a 9&7 thrashing (with Viktor Hovland) of Scottie Scheffler and Brooks Koepka.
