Make that another hole-out for Ludvig Åberg.
Åberg, who holed a bunker shot each of the previous two days at the Genesis Invitational, added his first hole-in-one of the season during Saturday’s third round at Torrey Pines’ South Course, jarring one with pitching wedge from 140 yards at the picturesque par-3 third.
The ace is the first at No. 3 since Richy Werenski in the first round of the 2021 Farmers Insurance Open. It also earns California Rises a $10,000 donation from Genesis.
Åberg birdied the par-3 eighth with a 30-foot bunker shot on Thursday before holing out from 40 feet for eagle at the par-5 18th on Friday.
The Swede has a bet with his caddie, Joe Skovron, on how many hole-outs Åberg can produce through the RBC Heritage in April. The over/under is set at 6.5, and Åberg is now up to five.
“I lose money to Joe, so I don’t want to do that,” Åberg said on Friday.
Åberg’s ace moved him to 6 under for the tournament, three shots off Davis Thompson’s lead at the time.
