Ludvig Aberg Exposes Secret to Endless TGL Energy As Justin Thomas Fights ‘Sleep Deprivation’
Balancing personal and professional life can be tough, especially when you’re juggling a high-pressure career with a new role as a parent. Justin Thomas knows this all too well. Since the arrival of his daughter, Molly, in November 2024, he’s been navigating the challenges of fatherhood while competing at the top of his game. In a recent interview, when asked if the sleep deprivation from being a new dad helped him rise to the occasion in moments of pressure, JT gave an honest and relatable response. “No, being a dad is way more challenging than anything I had to do out there,” he said.
I love these guys to death, but they’re not life or death like the situation I have going on at home where I’m trying to take care of an infant.” Despite the exhaustion, he shared how the team fed off the crowd’s energy to push through, saying, “The sleep deprivation was real for all of us, so we were happy to feed off of the crowd and use the adrenaline to get us through.” Well, for this season, Justin Thomas also has the added responsibility of faring well at the SoFi Center for his team Atlanta Drive GC. Right after the Genesis Invitational concluded on Sunday at Torey Pines’s South Coast, he had to fly to the Palm Beach Gardens in Florida, for the Monday match.
And let’s be honest, traveling without sleep can get exhausting. But he surely is not the only player to be doing so. Ludvig Aberg defeated Maverick McNealy by a close one stroke at the Genesis Invitational and clinched the trophy. He celebrated his victory and then flew for his team’s match The Bay Golf Club at the SoFi Center, and well, he seems to be doing pretty well. When asked how it felt to just clinch the trophy and begin another match in just 22 hours, Aberg said, “I didn’t think it was an issue at all. When you come in here, as Wyndham said, it’s so much fun, and the atmosphere is cool, you get the energy from the crowds and you get the energy from the game and the matches. So that wasn’t an issue.”
