Aberg Leads Players Championship, Thorbjornsen Trails

0:00On March 15th, here's the latest out of Sydney. Ludwig Aberg enters the final round of the players' championship with a three-shot lead at 13 under par. The 26-year-old Swede carted a 1 under 71 in the third round at TPC Sawgrass in Florida, putting him ahead of Michael Thorbjornson. Aberg notched his third eagle of the week and avoided major blunders, though he missed key birdy chances on the back nine. He set off for par as on the par 5-16th in Island Green 17th, then three-putted for Bogey on the last. Thorbjornson fired a 67 to join Aberg in the final paring. The two locals and college rivals, both former top-ranked and PGA tour university, know the course well and have practiced together often. Australians, Menwool Lee and Jason Day start nine shots back at four under, while Cameron Young sits four behind after a double-bogey finish. Justin Thomas and others, like Zander Shuffle, trail by five. The stadium course remains treacherous, so steady play could be key tomorrow.
