The Swedish prodigy has quickly established himself as one of golf’s rising stars, but who is Ludvig Aberg’s caddie?

Ludvig Aberg won his first professional title – the 2023 Omega European Masters – just three months after turning pro.

In November 2023, just three months later, he won his first PGA Tour event at the RSM Classic.

Ludvig Aberg’s caddie during his incredible early rise was Jack Clarke. However, Aberg then decided to replace his caddie Clarke at the end of the 2023 campaign with Joe Skovron.

Joe Skovron has been the man by Aberg’s side during his debuts at major championships in 2024.

So, who is Joe Skovron, Ludvig Aberg’s new caddie? Here’s what you need to know about Aberg’s looper…

• Who is Ludvig Aberg’s coach?

• Who is Ludvig Aberg’s girlfriend?

Ludvig Aberg’s caddie Joe Skovron

Ludvig Aberg enjoyed a remarkable college career before turning pro. He made six consecutive cuts before the run ended at the Genesis Scottish Open.

His ex-caddie Clarke had been on the bag for his victory at the Omega European Masters and his first PGA Tour title at the RSM Classic.

Clarke, a former pro, has caddied for several years, and began his career on the bag on the LPGA Tour.

He worked with several players, including Sophia Popov, Linnea Strom, and Madelene Sagstrom – Clarke’s girlfriend.

But the pair parted ways, as Aberg wanted more experience ahead of his first taste of major championships in 2024.

“He just turned around to me the week before last and said he was going to let me go, purely based on wanting more experience on the bag,” Clarke told bunkered.co.uk.

“Before the conversation I didn’t see it coming because of the results we had together but I totally respect his decision.

“I was shocked and disappointed by the decision, but at the end of the day it’s his decision to hopefully become what he wants to become.

“When he said the experience in majors, I can’t say too much about it because I don’t have that.”

Instead, Aberg turned to one of the most experienced loopers on the PGA Tour.

Joe Skovron, a former college golf coach, has carried the bag in over 50 major championships and took the position as Aberg’s caddie.

He is best known for caddying for Rickie Fowler for 13 years before that relationship ended in August 2022.

Skovron then worked for another of golf’s most promising young talents in Tom Kim.

He is now set to get the best seat in the house following the early career of the special talent Aberg.
