Why Ludvig Åberg Is Poised to Win the Masters

Ludvig Åberg might not be the favorite on heading into the 2025 Masters, he’s missed his last two cuts. But history and Åberg’s own unique trajectory suggest that’s exactly why he might slip on the green jacket this weekend.

Masters’ lore is packed with tales of golfers who entered Augusta on a hot streak, only to lose when it mattered most. Åberg’s two missed cuts? They might be more of a reset than a red flag. This isn't a guy burned out or broken, he is just warning up.

Let’s not forget: Ludvig Åberg finished 2nd at last year’s Masters. He was very close to glory, if it wasn’t for that fatal miss on the 11th. That close call left him hungry. And with the benefit of experience, you can bet he's stepping onto Augusta National with more grit, calmer, and one goal in mind.

Also, can we talk about Åberg’s new clothing style? This guy is turning heads not just with his swing but with his vintage-inspired golf fashion. He’s bringing cool back to the fairways - think subtle 80s vibes with a modern Scandinavian twist. More importantly, he’s showing signs of becoming a true Sunday closer: calm under pressure, confident with the putter, and fearless on 18.

Who is he up against?

Scottie Scheffler is always dangerous, but he hasn’t quite looked like himself since that hand injury. There's a hesitancy in his game - enough to make him vulnerable if it comes down to Sunday pressure.

Brooks Koepka? Not in major form, too complacent and Bryson DeChambeau? Augusta has never quite suited his game even though he has has a new strategy for this year, aiming to cut corners with even longer bombs - reckon he can close but no jacket. Rory McIlroy? We all want the career grand slam, but The Masters has a way of playing on Rory’s nerves, and history has shown us he’s more likely to slip than surge at Augusta.

So why Åberg? Because he’s due. Because he's destined too. Because he has the game, the mindset, the swag to stay cool and experience to win at Augusta after almost nailing it last year.
