Travel Special: Pack Like A Pro – Australian Golf Digest

Ludvig Åberg getting ready to go.

Tumi Alpha International Dual-Access Carry-On

I always travel with an average-size suitcase, a carry-on and my golf bag. I try to keep it light on the outbound and don’t pack too much because I typically add things as I go, so I like to leave room for more.

Adidas Go-To Printed Polo and Ultimate365 Tapered Pants

My packing list for a typical tournament week is about 12 to 15 golf polos, five pairs of shorts, 10 pairs of pants, two to three pairs of golf shoes. I always roll up my clothes as it creates more space in my bag, but then my clothes get wrinkly, so I iron everything when I get to the hotel. If I’m packing shorts, I’ll always make sure to pack ankle socks. I like to play golf in high socks but never wear high socks with shorts.

Adidas Stan Smiths 

I keep it casual when packing for off the course. I always have a pair of Adidas Ultraboost sneakers with me, at least one pair of originals — usually Stan Smiths — and probably a hoodie (Adidas Originals Trefoil), another favourite.

iPad Mini

I like to bring my iPad Mini because it’s perfect for watching movies and shows. I also normally have a book in my bag, even though I don’t always read. I tend to fall asleep on the plane, but if I have the energy to read, I will.

Liquid I.V.

It’s easy to get dehydrated while flying, so I like to drink a lot of water and coffee. I also keep a packet of Liquid I.V. in my carry-on to make sure I get some vitamins.

Chipotle Double- Wrapped Burrito

When I get to the airport, I look for the healthy stuff, which isn’t always an easy thing to find. Chipotle is great because it is so quick and good for you, and you can create your own meal. My go-to order is what’s called a Double-Wrapped Burrito. You get two tortillas, and I load up with black beans, brown rice, chicken, guac and some veggies – the works.

Dental floss

One thing I always have on me is floss because I really hate when things get stuck in my teeth.
