Ludvig Aberg leads ahead of the final round of the BMW PGA Championship
The 24-year-old DP World Tour rookie maintained his lead on Saturday, September 16, as he posted a 6-under 66 at the BMW PGA Championship, reaching a total of 17-under. He was two strokes ahead of Tommy Fleetwood and Connor Syme after three days at Wentworth.
Earlier this year, Ludvig Aberg became the first player to earn a PGA Tour card immediately after topping the PGA Tour University ranking. A couple of weeks ago, he won the European Masters and was selected for the Rome event by Europe's captain, Luke Donald.
Connor Syme shot 65 with the help of a brilliant back nine that included four birdies and an eagle. Fleetwood carded a 5-under 67 with the support of four birdies and an eagle.
Callum Shinkwin was three shots back after carding a bogey-free 64. Aaron Rai (67) and Ryan Fox (66) are also tied with Shinkwin. Jon Rahm trailed by four strokes after posting a 66 on Saturday.
