About this episode
Ludvig Åberg discusses his experiences and strategies for playing at Augusta National, breaking down each hole and sharing insights on the course.
Most players need years to process Augusta National’s intricacies. Ludvig Åberg already has a runner up and a top 10 in his first two Masters. We sat down with the Swedish phenom ahead to examine every hole at Augusta National. From the opening tee shot to the approach on 18, Åberg breaks down the shots he sees—where to miss, where not to miss, what the wind does, preferred ball flights, how the grain lies, and the nuances in the greens you can’t see on TV. Along the way, Åberg explains why he flights almost every iron shot at Augusta, reveals the one shot he'd like a mulligan on, explains what makes Scottie Scheffler so brilliant, and shares his theory on the mythical pull of Rae's Creek. Plus: his Lego obsession, his Champions Dinner menu, and the age-old debate of Method Man vs. ABBA. The Golfer's Journal and this podcast are made possible by reader support.
