You Won’t Believe what this TOUR Pro Pays in Rent Each Month

Many pro athletes are known for spending lavishly once they make it to the big time.

Not Ludvig Aberg.

The 24-year-old Swede has already earned over $3 million in prize money on the PGA Tour alone since turning pro last June. He also won on the DP World Tour and was part of the victorious European team in last fall’s Ryder Cup.

But on the Talk of the Tour podcast last week, Aberg said that he cut a great deal for his living arrangements in the United States.

“I’m paying [Vincent Norrman] $400 per month, so I’ve never lived cheaper than I do now,” Aberg said. “I started by saying $500 and then he goes, ‘How about $300,’ so I said, ‘Okay, let’s do $400.”

A reminder that Ludvig Aberg earned $3 million on the PGA Tour last year. 😂

Norrman, also from Sweden and a winner on the PGA Tour last summer, attended college at Florida State University and currently is Aberg’s landlord in Tallahassee, Florida.

This should come as no surprise to those who have followed Aberg’s rapid ascent in pro golf. When he earned his PGA Tour card while playing at Texas Tech, he celebrated at the local Chipotle.

You’re a senior in college and you just earned your PGA TOUR card.

Aberg also revealed last month that he turned down a huge sum to join LIV Golf.

Another perk of living in Florida, as Aberg is soon to discover when he files with Uncle Sam on that $3 million in earnings? No state income tax!
