Ludvig Aberg made an impressive start at Pebble Beach, scoring 4-under in his first 4 holes. Joaco Niemann shot a historic round of 59 at LIV Mayakoba, with a bogey-free performance. His outstanding score overshadowed Jon Rahm's debut. Scottie Scheffler also performed well, scoring 8-under 64 at Pebble Beach. Tom Hoge shot 66 at Pebble Beach and is in a tie for 10th place. Niemann's 59 was significantly better than the average score at LIV Mayakoba.
#Fargo’s Tom Hoge shot 66 yesterday at Pebble Beach, where he won two years ago. Hoge is in a tie for 10th starting the weekend, four shots off the lead. Weather could be a big factor today. Hoge is part of a featured group today, his entire round will be on ESPN Plus.
Joaquin Niemann’s 59 at LIV Mayakoba yesterday shouldn’t be dismissed as a slight outlier on an easier setup. He was five shots clear of the next-best score and 11.61 better than the scoring average.
