Aberg came into the day at 4-under par, and as of press time he is seven-under par through eight holes in a tie for second place with Scottie Scheffler and Denny McCarthy.

Davis Thompson is the current leader at 8-under par.

Patrick Rodgers is sitting at 6-under, while Rory McIlroy, Tony Finau, and Samuel Stevens are all at -4 for the tournament.

Aberg has just one career win since turning pro in 2023, winning the RSM Classic in 2023. 

Despite only winning once in his young career, Aberg has been knocking on the door for his next win. 

The Swedish golfer has made 34 of 39 cuts in his career, with 13 top ten finishes, nine top five finishes, and being the runner-up four times. 

Aberg hopes his hole-in-one can propel him to victory at Torrey Pines on Sunday.
