Ludvig Åberg carded a 7-under 65 on Saturday to take a one-stroke lead into the final round of The Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass. The Swedish star sits at 18-under par for the tournament.

Xander Schauffele, who shared the 36-hole lead, is alone in second place at 17-under after a third-round 68. The leaderboard remains tightly packed, with Scottie Scheffler and Wyndham Clark among those within four shots of the lead.

Åberg's bogey-free round featured seven birdies, including a crucial putt on the iconic par-3 17th island green. The final round on Sunday will determine the winner of the PGA Tour's flagship event and its $4.5 million first-place prize.
