He tied the course record at TPC Southwind and holds a three-shot lead going into the weekend. <\/p>\n<p>Scheffler has not lived up to his own lofty standards this season. He does have 11 top-fives on the season so far, and has five runner-up finishes, but Scheffler has won just once in the PGA Tour regular season. <\/p>\n<p>However, having won 15 times over the past two seasons, he\u2019s still clearly still the best player in golf. Scheffler has the most rounds of -9 or better on the PGA Tour since the beginning of the 2020 season.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s mighty impressive, and it\u2019s three more than the next closest player. But where Ludvig Aberg ranks on that list could actually be a more impressive accomplishment than Scheffler\u2019s. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\"  src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/GettyImages-2289960681-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Scottie Scheffler of the United States hits a tee shot on the 16th hole during the second round of the FedEx St. Jude Championship at TPC Southwind\" class=\"wp-image-2605736\" \/>Photo by Ben Jared\/PGA TOUR via Getty ImagesLudvig Aberg stats show his PGA Tour career so far is underappreciated <\/p>\n<p>Scheffler is the best player in golf, so it\u2019s no surprise to see that he has the most nine-under rounds on the PGA Tour over the last six years, with 11. Behind him on eight -9 rounds are Justin Thomas, Patrick Cantlay, Mackenzie Hughes, and Aberg. <\/p>\n<p>Thomas, Cantlay, Hughes, and Scheffler are all PGA Tour veterans. They have been on the tour since 2020, and have six years to accumulate these rounds. But not Aberg. <\/p>\n<p>The Swede only started playing full-time on the PGA Tour in 2023. He\u2019s had half the time to record eight -9 rounds compared to the names around him on this list. <\/p>\n<p>So while the once highly-touted amateur might have disappointed so far in many people\u2019s minds, perhaps the start to his professional career is underappreciated. <\/p>\n<p>MORE SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER STORIES<\/p>\n<p>These numbers tell Aberg\u2019s story pretty effectively. His talent is clearly immense, and when he\u2019s firing on all cylinders, no one is better than the 26-year-old. But with that talent comes expectation, and two PGA Tour wins in his career so far doesn\u2019t do his talent justice.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Aberg has been known to throw away his chances of winning when he\u2019s in the mix late in tournaments. He\u2019s got low rounds in him, we all know that, but stringing four rounds together in a week has been his problem.<\/p>\n<p>But by the end of his third year on the PGA Tour, Scheffler had only won three times. So perhaps we should give this young star some grace before judging his career too quickly. <\/p>\n<p>Join Our Newsletter<\/p>\n<p>Receive exclusive football transfer news and updates twice a week to your mailbox<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Follow us on Google Discover Scottie Scheffler reminded everyone that he is the standard in golf.
