European Ryder Cup rookie Ludvig Aberg dating rising British tennis star
Europe has a new star at the Ryder Cup in the form of Ludvig Aberg and the rookie Swede appears to have landed himself a new girlfriend. The 23-year-old was a surprise selection for Luke Donald’s European team given that he only became a professional three months ago and is yet to even appear in a major.
But the former amateur world No. 1 has followed up his first pro title victory at the European Masters by winning a point for the blue team on the opening morning of the Ryder Cup in Rome.
Aberg teamed up with Norwegian Viktor Hovland to form a Scandinavian double-act that was too hot to handle for Open Champion Brian Harman and Max Homa, with the Americans defeated 4&3.
It was a dream debut for debutant Aberg as the Europeans raced into an emphatic 4-0 lead following the morning foursomes session.
And his joy on the course now appears to have been matched by the blossoming of an embryotic relationship off it.
