One week before the U.S Open, the PGA TOUR heads to Oakdale Golf & Country Club in Canada for the RBC Canadian Open. About to turn 100 years old, Oakdale will be hosting Canada’s national championship for the first time. Rory McIlroy headlines the field and will be looking to build on his T7 finish at the Memorial Tournament presented by Workday last week. As a two-time defending champion of the tournament, the Northern Irishman will be the man to beat. Tyrrell Hatton enters the tournament in strong form after finishing in the top 20 in five consecutive events since the RBC Heritage in April. Matt Fitzpatrick will also have a strong chance in Canada this week. Despite an opening-round 76, he finished T9 at Muirfield Village Golf Club, five shots off the lead. He’ll look to stay hot this week in preparation for his U.S Open title defense. Expectations are high for Corey Conners. Being Canada’s highest-ranked player and finishing T12 at the recent PGA Championship, there’s anticipation he could be the first Canadian to win the national championship since Pat Fletcher in 1954. Justin Rose, Tommy Fleetwood and Shane Lowry will also be looking to take top spot in Canada.

He hits the ball so quick… just as he gets in position it’s already gone

[@quakewakey]

i like how he's so consistent with it though, like it's the exact same pattern every swing. really gives you some confidence to have repeatable routines

[@Jade-bz3sg]

Swing is powerful, beautiful, and simple. If he has the Nordic ice in his veins, he will be one to watch

[@SaberKanwar]

Aberg is the future. What a beast 🎉

[@dowtingtomas.695]

😂😂the future of choking .

A very special talent. A future star. Can't miss prospect.

[@Kreiatos37]

What a beautiful swing

[@abishaicampbell2187]

This kid could be a star for sure.

[@thomasgann1201]

Will be*

[@simplecarblog5663]

Greetings from Sweden. He can be a new Stenson. He plays really good

[@ZickDorito]

Such good flow👍🏼 Watched the first round live with Gaston at Hooks 💪🏼 Best of luck in the event 😎

[@morgancross5481]

Simple and gorgeous swing!

[@None-lx8kj]

Am I the only one who momentarily wondered how Mogul Mail got on the PGA Tour?

[@rexuz2482]

I can't deal with them butchering his name for the next 20 years. 😫 It's pronounced Auberj. Even saying Oberj will be better than Aberg.

[@handledmyhandle]

Yeah, a bit unprofessional. They haven't even used the correct spelling, Åberg.

[@KKevinnnn]

He should be rookie of the year for the pro golfers of Arabia tour

[@mylesfecundo8240]

I like how he stable with that speed

[@aidangriffiths5075]

And he's already a Ryder cup winner

[@sleepyh1]

Guy is going to be around awhile. Has a phenomenal short game to pair with his great golf swing. Anyone know his preferred shot shape? looked like draws?

[@okboomer12345]

Goodness me making 184 ball speed look easy breezy!

[@shaipey]

Åååååååberg! King 🙏🇸🇪

[@lindekruz579]

at this day ppl stopped talked about Adam scott's swing and started talking about Abergs

[@aloefgren]

Who was in the commentary that is the countryman of Ludvig? :)

[@isambo400]

Looks like a stud

[@MatsMorlund]

Impressive❗

[@johanposapros8396]

As a swede, how they pronounce his name cracks me up every time, they sound like an early Arnold Schwarzenegger you know, with the heaviest of accents. Sure it´s completely alien to americans but still 😆

[@aNTRiQ]

Ludveeg Eyberg. 😂

[@b12deficient24]

As a Canadian that lived in Sweden for a bit their pronunciation even sounds painful to my ears. They could at least try but, no, zero curiosity.

[@Raskolnikov_10]

”A-burgh” 😂

[@brendannell2193]

Please show Corey Connors’ highlights

[@adrianwoodruff2486]

We will when he makes a highlight

[@user-zy5uk4mg2n]

Nice

[@LegolasFan69]

These young LIV players got game

[@krusbaer11]

Who is liv player?

[@RobertJohanssonRBImGuy]

need to change his grip to gain consistency to win 20 majors if he can putt decently.

[@richlewis1879]

Haven't seen, but I hope he waxed hatton

[@jefftaylor8644]

Iron off the tee 250 plus carry. Im going to bed

[@GolfingInParadise783]

World number one in 12 months I reckon, his long games a joke

[@dowtingtomas.695]

Na, he has choke in him.

[@GolfingInParadise783]

@@dowtingtomas.695 I’m not so sure, inexperience, sure, choke.. not so much. It’s only ever really been Tiger that’s come out ready to win straight away without giving away some big leads.

[@guy5529]

@@dowtingtomas.695yeah a 61-61 weekend to shoot -29 for your first win. He’s a real choker

Texas Tech = “Big 10 Title”?
