Swedish Golfer of the Year

Swedish Golfer of the Year is awarded annually by the Swedish Golf Federation.

The award is individual and awarded since 1966 to the Swedish golfer with the best overall golf performance each year, either in a series of achievements or a single big success. In the assessment the event difficulty, the competition, any surprises and pressing conditions are considered. The jury is made up of player representatives from PGA Sweden, golf journalists, and officials from the Swedish Golf Federation.
