Ludvig Aberg Reveals Why He Rejected LIV Golf Offers

Ludvig Aberg has reportedly turned down a hefty LIV offer, he revealed. The PGA Tour pro said that he was contacted by LIV officials about joining the league, but he declined, saying he “will never chase money” and rather to compete against the best players on the circuit to make a name for himself.

Ludvig Aberg Reveals Why He Rejected LIV Golf Offers

The golfer began playing professionally in 2023 and has already claimed two PGA Tour and DP World Tour victories. He also played in the Ryder Cup, winning a Saturday round of 9&7 against World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler.

After his outstanding rookie season on the PGA Tour, Ludvig Aberg, who has previously received offers from LIV Golf, claims he turned down another offer from the league supported by Saudi Arabia.

“When I look back, I am super confident in my decision,” Aberg told SVT Sport via a Google translation. “I will never try to chase money, what I do is to compete. I did the right thing.”

“I want to play against the best, because I am a competitive person and like to compete against the best players,” Aberg said. “Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like that at the moment, it’s a bit more fragmented.”

“When I look at the PGA Tour and the competitions there, there is so much history around all the competitions,”  he added. “And that’s what I like, that’s what I go for. But then you have to respect everyone’s decisions.”

Aberg allegedly received a $2.5 million offer from LIV Golf while still an amateur player at Texas Tech. He received his second offer following his victory at the RSM Classic in November, his first on the PGA Tour, but he has stated that he is not interested in pursuing financial gain.

Subsequently, Aberg expressed his admiration for the decisions taken by all those who have switched to LIV Golf.

What golf ball does Ludvig Aberg play?

Aberg’s Titleist Vokey wedges and Titleist Pro V1x golf ball allowed him to finish the week in third place in the scrambling competition. When Aberg started his professional career in June, he discussed the qualities of the golf ball he was seeking for with Titleist representatives early this year. “I enjoy giving the ball spin,” he remarked.

Who sponsors Aberg?

For Aberg, the possibilities for success on the course are endless, and he will undoubtedly get sponsorships in the future. It appears that he is now solely officially associated with Adidas.
