Åberg holds a first-round lead on the PGA Tour for the first time in his career after his 63 Wednesday
SAN DIEGO (AP) -- Ludvig Åberg shot a 9-under 63 Wednesday in what he calls his favorite place in the world, taking a two-shot lead over Danny Walker and Hayden Springer in the opening round of the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines.
Åberg took a first-round lead on the PGA Tour for the first time after posting the best opening-round score of his short career. The 25-year-old Swede capitalized on playing the easier North Course at Torrey Pines, hitting 16 of 18 greens in regulation while making eight birdies and an eagle on the coastal links.
"I like when you hit a lot of drivers, and I feel like I did that a lot today, and probably going to do the same tomorrow," Åberg said. "(I love) any golf course when it looks like this, when you have the views, and Torrey Pines is a really, really cool place."
