LUDVIG ABERG is hoping to go from Ryder Cup hero to Masters champion – and he will have his gorgeous girlfriend cheering him on.
The Swede, 24, landed his maiden DP World Tour title at the Omega European Masters in Switzerland last year.

And his impressive displays before that also helped earn him a spot as one of Luke Donald’s picks in the European Ryder Cup team.
He was part of the team which decimated Team USA at The 44th Ryder Cup last September in Rome.
He was spotted for the first time in public with his girlfriend Olivia Peet at the Ryder Cup Gala.
The pair are believed to have met while they were studying at Texas Tech in the States.
Peet was born in Manchester, England and was one of 10 players nationally ranked in the UK.
Then, after moving across the pond, she reportedly won 73 singles and 71 doubles matches while at Texas Tech.
Peet went on to reach a career-best of 115 in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association Rankings and has appeared on both the Texas Women’s Tennis and Texas Tech Red Raiders social media channels over the past year.
Peet, whose father Chtis is a former tennis pro and now coaches future stars, was seen walking hand-in-hand with Alberg on the famous Spanish Steps two nights ago.
They were then spotted together again striding out for the Ryder Cup Opening Ceremony yesterday.
And no doubt it won’t be long until we see her in the 4,700 strong crowd in attendance at Macro Simone Golf and Country Club this weekend.
