Ludvig Aberg celebrates after winning The Genesis Invitational tournament at Torrey Pines.
ONE week the PGA Tour winner was Ludvig Aberg, a Swede so supremely talented that he played in a Ryder Cup before his first Major, entered the top 10 in the world ranking just nine months after he left college and has been there ever since.
The next week it was Brian Campbell, a 31-year-old who averaged US$7,999 (RM35,403) for the 186 tournaments he played over the last decade – one full year on the PGA Tour, the rest on the Korn Ferry Tour – before winning the Mexico Open. That was worth US$1,260,000 (RM5,576,419).
