Ex-LIV player Eugenio Chacarra claims 'very similar career' to that of Ludvig Aberg

In a recent interview with the X (formerly Twitter) account 'Flushing It,' former LIV Golf player Eugenio Chacarra expressed his ambition to play on the PGA Tour. He drew a comparison between his own career trajectory and that of Ludvig Aberg.

After the 2024 season, Chacarra was released by Sergio Garcia, captain of LIV Golf's Fireballs GC team. As he told Flushing It (@flushingitgolf), his goal now is to play on the PGA Tour as soon as possible.

This was part of what Chacarra, 24, said:

"I’m a winner and I was never treated like a winner. On the PGA Tour, Ludvig Aberg has one win and I have one win on LIV. He has one win on the European Tour and I have one win on the International Series on the Asian Tour. So we have very similar careers... we have performed similar. What tours I can play on, I have won."

He added:

"I want to make sure I’m doing the right thing to get myself on to the Korn Ferry or PGA Tour as soon as possible."

Chacarra is currently suspended from the PGA Tour. His ban, which began after his final LIV Golf appearance, is set to expire in September 2025.

As a professional, Aberg has one PGA Tour victory (2023 RSM Classic) and 13 other top-10 finishes, including four runner-up finishes. He also has one victory on the DP World Tour (Omega European Masters).

Aberg made his major championship debut with a tie for second at the 2024 Masters Tournament. He made the cut at the PGA Championship, tied for 12th at the US Open and also made the cut at the Open Championship.

The Swede has already participated in his first Ryder Cup (2023), where he achieved victory with the European team.
