Who Is Alex Noren’s Wife?
Alex Noren has enjoyed a hugely successful career and, throughout his several wins, his wife Jennifer Kovacs has been by his side


Alex Noren turned professional in 2005 and, since that moment, has registered 10 victories on the DP World Tour, including its flagship tournament at the 2017 BMW PGA Championship.
In fact, that victory came in the same year he married his long-term partner Jennifer Kovacs, with the pair tying the knot in September 2017.
Kovacs was born in Stockholm and studied at Stockholm University, graduating with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business, Management and Marketing.
After university, Kovacs worked as a marketing assistant at Abbot, which is a hospital & health care company in her birthplace of Stockholm.
Although unclear if she still works with the hospital & health care company, Kovacs has run a podcast called OPodden, which is a series that interviews successful Swedish women.

What's more, the family have been spotted at numerous tournaments, including Noren’s victory at the British Masters, Open de France, as well as the Masters Par 3 contest.

At the start of 2025, Noren suffered with a muscle injury that sidelined him for numerous months. During that time, he was able to coach his daughter's softball team.
Speaking at the 2025 PGA Championship, the Swede stated: "The only thing is that it was a lot easier to have this break when I'm 42 than when I was younger.
"It was just my tendon in my hamstring on the sit bone. It's a bad injury but you can still live a quite normal life because you have two other tendons that support it. But I couldn't swing a club. I couldn't jump or run. I could walk kind of slowly and live a normal life. I could coach my kids. I spent a lot of time with the family. It's been quite nice."

Matt joined Golf Monthly in February 2021 covering weekend news, before also transitioning to equipment and testing. After freelancing for Golf Monthly and The PGA for 18 months, he was offered a full-time position at the company in October 2022 and continues to cover news and social media.
Taking up the game when he was just seven years of age, Matt made it into his county squad just a year later and continues to play the game at a high standard, with a handicap of around 2-4. To date, his best round came in 2016, where he shot a six-under-par 66 having been seven-under through nine holes. His favorite player is Rory McIlroy, despite nearly being struck by his second shot at the 17th during the 2015 BMW PGA Championship.
